Abstract

Cooperating with a supplier with professional skills is necessary to achieve performance in the development of the innovative products. It is also important to improve development competence and share knowledge. This study empirically analyzed the effect of participant's Job Competence and Leadership Competence on Knowledge Sharing, and the effect of Purchaser Interdependence on Supplier Absorption Capacity. The purpose of the study is to confirm that Knowledge Sharing between Development Participant and Supplier contributes to Performance and to demonstrate the need for a cooperative relationship with the Supplier. A survey was conducted on the product development participants to confirm the relationship between the factors using a Structural Equation Model. As a result of the hypothesis test, the better the Individual Competence of the development participants, the better the Knowledge Sharing Activity, and then Knowledge Sharing and Interdependence are the main factor in the Absorption Capacity of the Supplier. The results of this study can contribute to improving the Supplier Absorption Capacity in the product development projects in which high technology is converged. In the future, we will study the effects of the project support activities of related departments for Performance.

혁신적인 제품을 개발하는 과정에서 성과를 내기 위해서는 전문성을 갖춘 부품 공급업체와의 협력이 필요하다. 또한 개발 참여자의 개인역량을 키우고 지식을 공유하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 참여자의 직무역량과 리더십역량이 지식공유에 미치는 영향과, 구매업체의 상호의존성이 공급업체 흡수역량에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석하였다. 연구목적은 개발참여자와 공급업체의 지식공유가 성과에 기여함을 확인하고, 공급업체와의 협력적 관계의 필요성을 증명하기 위함이다. 제품개발 참여자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 각 요인간의 관계를 구조방정식 모형으로 확인하였다. 가설검증 결과, 개발 참여자들의 개인역량이 뛰어날수록 지식공유 활동을 향상시키며, 지식공유와 상호의존성은 공급업체 흡수역량에 주요한 요인임을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구결과는 첨단기술이 융복합되는 제품개발 프로젝트에서, 성과 향상에 필요한 공급업체의 흡수역량을 제고하는데 기여할 수 있을 것이다. 향후에는 성과를 위한 사내 관련부서의 프로젝트 지원활동 효과에 대해 연구하고자 한다.
