  • Although several studies show close relationships between social capitals and their performances, a little is known about specific social capitals and their effects on organizational culture and behaviour leading to their innovative outcomes within small and medium sized enterprises(: SMEs). This study examines some dimensions of social capitals and their influences on creating innovative culture and employees' behaviour. The importance of these are regarded as an imperative for SMEs to overcome the inequality of financial leverage and competitive power over resources. For the empirical analysis, survey data were collected from 51 domestic SMEs and analyzed by partial least squares(: PLS) that is one of popular structural modeling and multi-variate projection techniques to latent variables. The findings confirm a positive support of social capitals and their influences on the innovative culture and bahaviour. This result implies that managing the capability of social capitals is important for SMEs to develop the innovative culture and bahaviour and create a competitive advantage.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 정보화 프로젝트의 규모와 범위가 날로 확대됨에 따라 프로젝트의 생산성 향상과 프로젝트 품질확보에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있는 시점에서 정보화 프로젝트 성과에 영향을 미치는 성공요인과 프로젝트 성과변수를 포괄적인 이론적 고찰과 논리적 추론과정을 통해서 도출하고, 현행 정부(중소기업청)에서 추진하고 있는 중소기업 정보화지원사업의 정보화 프로젝트를 대상으로 하여 성공요인과 성과변수 간의 관계를 실증적으로 분석함으로써 성공적인 정보화 프로젝트 수행을 위한 관리지침을 제공함에 있다. 실증분석 결과, 프로젝트수행 적정도와 고객사(사업대상기관) 협조도가 정보화 프로젝트 성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 또한 정보화지원사업유형에 따라 프로젝트수행 적정도와 전략적 기여도 간의 관계정도가 차이가 나는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

  • 정부는 중소기업 정보화가 기업 업무효율성을 제고하고 글로벌 경쟁력 강화를 위한 핵심동인임을 인지하고 있다. 이에 정부차원의 많은 지원정책이 있었지만, 소기의 성과를 달성하지 못했다. 이런 환경하에서 중소기업의 IT솔루션 도입성과를 측정 하기 위해 기존의 성과측정 방법론과 달리, IT 성과측정에 집중하지 않고 개선방향 제시에 중점을 둔 중소기업 정보화생산성 향상 컨설팅 방법론을 개발하였다. 본 방법론의 각 중소 기업의 시스템 구성평가, 운영 평가, 경영개선 기여도평가를 통해 IT솔루션이 중소기업 경영에 어떻게 기여하고, 어떤 측면을 개선하는 것이 좋은지를 판단할 수 있는 잣대가 되는 방법론이다.

  • 최근 경기침체에 다른 여파로 중소기업의 경기동향은 나날이 악화되고 있는 추세이다. 소비심리 위축과 수출 여건 악화로 부도율이 높아지고, 향후 경기전망도 불투명해 기업경영에 이 중고를 겪고 있다. 그러나 전반적으로 중소기업의 경기동향이 좋지 않은 상황에서 정보화 수준에 따라 업종별로 가동률, 생산지수를 비교한 결과 정보화 수준이 높은 업종이 여타 업종에 비해 상대적으로 경기침체의 영향을 적게 받은 것으로 나타났다. 실제로 정보화 수준이 중소기업의 경영성과에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 알아보기 위해 3가지 실증분석 모형을 통해 분석해본 결과, 1인당 매출액, 총매출액, 개인업무개선, 기업업무개선, 조직의 유연성, 대외환경 적응력 등 기업 내외부 전반에 걸쳐 유의적으로 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 정보화 수준 향상이 기업 경쟁력에 미치는 효과가 크므로 생산성 향상을 통해 경기침체기를 극복하기 위해서라도 경기 호황기는 물론 불황기에도 정보화 투자에 소홀히 하면 안된다는 것을 보여준다.

  • While youth unemployment has recorded the lowest level since the global COVID-19 pandemic, SMEs(small and medium sized enterprises) are still struggling to fill vacancies. It is difficult for SMEs to find good candidates as well as for job seekers to find appropriate job offers due to information mismatch. To overcome information mismatch, this study proposes the fine-turning model for bidirectional HR matching based on a pre-learning language model called BERT(Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers). The proposed model is capable to recommend job openings suitable for the applicant, or applicants appropriate for the job through sufficient pre-learning of terms including technical jargons. The results of the experiment demonstrate the superior performance of our model in terms of precision, recall, and f1-score compared to the existing content-based metric learning model. This study provides insights for developing practical models for job recommendations and offers suggestions for future research.

  • Healthcare lifelog, a personal record relating to disease treatment and healthcare, plays an important role in healthcare paradigm shifts in which medical and information technology converge. Healthcare services based on various healthcare lifelogs are being launched domestically by both large corporations and small and medium enterprises, however, they are being built on an individual platform that is dependent on each company. Therefore, the terms of lifelog data are different as well as the measurement specifications are not uniform. This study proposes a reference model for minimum common data required for sharing and utilization of healthcare lifelog. Literature study and expert survey derived 3 domain, 17 essential items, and 51 sub-items. The model provides definition, measurement data format, measurement method, and precautions for each detailed measurement item, and provides necessary guidelines for data and service design and construction for healthcare service. This study has its significance as a basic research supporting the activation of ecosystem by ensuring interoperability of data between heterogeneous healthcare devices linked to digital healthcare platform.

  • In the soft drink industry, especially small and medium enterprises in Japan, there is a possibility of conversion from a labor-intensive industry to a capital-intensive. The demand for soft drinks may not be satisfied in the summer because the supply is too low to meet the demand. To address this situation, this paper proposes optimal investment that integrates demand uncertainty, based on real options approach (ROA) and seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average. Two alternative options are compared and evaluated. One is the Bermudan option: to employ additional workers to elevate efficiency in summer and laying off in winter, this attitude is repeated each year. The other is the American option: to replace equipment to increase machine ability throughout the year. Results in ROA show that the highest improvement is gained if the two options are in a symbiotic relationship. Soft drink producers should search for replacing equipment, using the employees repeatedly. A temporary decision is not equal to an infinite decision.

  • Small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs) continue to adopt ICT to gain an edge in organizational innovation and competition. This has a management advantage, but it also brings vulnerabilities as to cyber security. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to conduct an exploratory study on the cyber security situation of SMEs. A survey was conducted on Korean SMEs to determine how well they are connected to ICT and how much they are exposed to cyber security threats. The results suggest two things. First, Korean SMEs are well connected to ICT, but there is a gap between the actual adoption and human recognition of its importance. Second, security threats and breaches affect the majority of SMEs, but several problems including costs have not been properly evaluated. The results of this study are expected to help improve the cyber security management system of Korean SMEs.

  • Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (East Java, Indonesia) are one of the businesses that drive developing nations' economies with various challenges, particularly in finance and digitalization. The impact of financial literacy and the use of digitalization can affect the recording and reporting of company performance. This is quantitative research, and the population in this research is SMEs in East Java, with 401 SMEs from various businesses for the sample used. This research uses the primary data method of SMEs in East Java with the Structural Equation Model as a data analysis tool. The results showed a significant relationship between financial literacy and financial performance, and digital literacy was based on financial performance. However, digital literacy could not moderate financial literacy with the financial performance of East Java SMEs. Much of the untapped potential in this study was adopted from financial governance and digitalization. It is hoped that the subsequent study will examine other phenomena on the variables used in the post-pandemic.

  • The space industry is a comprehensive and technology-intensive industry involving different converging technologies. However, most of the companies in Korea's space industry are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and need to strengthen global capacity to export their products. However, the link between the destination country and the product remains insufficient. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to propose an export roadmap for space products to provide SMEs with export opportunities and strategic guidelines. For this, technology roadmap and portfolio analysis are applied to this purpose. This study is expected to be helpful to SMEs and government agencies.
