Summary: | 碩士 === 銘傳大學 === 企業管理學系碩士班 === 99 === Uncertainty is one of the defining factors of failed supply chain management. Companies employ different control mechanisms to reduce the uncertainty in a cooperative relationship. This study considered the impact of different control mechanisms on process variability, supplier opportunism and supply flexibility, with supplier bargaining power as a moderating factor. Survey questionnaires were designed based on past research on related issues, and data were collected from the electronics and IT industries in Taiwan.
The model was analyzed using Multi-Group Structural Equation Models. The Results show that supplier bargaining power has a significant moderating effect on control mechanisms’ effects on process variability, opportunism behavior, and supply flexibility. Some managerial suggestions are provided following the analysis.
