Abstract

Purpose Based on the resource orchestration perspective, this study aims to explore whether and how strategic supply management (SSM) affects firms’ operational performance (OP) and innovation performance (IP). Design/methodology/approach Survey data comprising 404 valid responses are collected from traditional manufacturing firms in China. Confirmatory factor analysis confirms the reliability and validity of the measures. Structural equation modeling and bootstrapping are used to test all hypotheses. Findings SSM improves firms’ OP and IP. Furthermore, supply base resource mobilization (SBRM) and supply market resource mobilization (SMRM) have partial mediating effects on the relationships. SBRM has a greater effect on OP, while SMRM has a greater effect on IP. In addition, these two types of resource mobilization form different mediating paths between SSM and firm performance, and environmental uncertainty positively moderates this relationship. Originality/value With the development of national innovation strategies such as the “Made in China 2025” plan, the Chinese manufacturing industry aims to move from low-cost manufacturing to innovative and high-quality manufacturing. The study’s findings further emphasize the role of purchasing and supply management in external resource management. In addition to demonstrating the differential effects of heterogeneous resource mobilization on OP and IP, different mediation pathways through external resources mobilization are identified in the relationship between SSM and firm performance.

战略供给管理对经营绩效和创新绩效的影响:外部供给资源调动的中介作用

本研究基于资源编排视角，探讨战略供应管理是否以及如何影响企业的运营绩效和创新绩效。设计/方法/方法调查数据包括404份有效回复，来自中国传统制造业企业。验证性因子分析证实了测量的信度和效度。使用结构方程建模和自举来检验所有假设。结果SSM提高了企业的OP和IP。此外，供应基础资源动员(SBRM)和供应市场资源动员(SMRM)对二者之间的关系具有部分中介作用。SBRM对OP的影响更大，SMRM对IP的影响更大。此外，这两种类型的资源动员在SSM与企业绩效之间形成了不同的中介路径，环境不确定性正向调节了这一关系。随着“中国制造2025”等国家创新战略的制定，中国制造业的目标是从低成本制造转向创新制造和高质量制造。研究结果进一步强调了采购和供应管理在外部资源管理中的作用。除了证明异质性资源动员对OP和IP的不同影响外，还在SSM与企业绩效的关系中发现了通过外部资源动员的不同中介途径。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Business & Industrial Marketing (JBIM) publishes research on new ideas concerning business-to-business marketing, that is, how one company or organization markets its goods/services/ideas to another company or organization. It is a valuable source for academics, directors and executives of marketing, providing them with new, fresh insights which are applicable within real life settings. JBIM''s emphasis on insistence of proof is one of the cornerstones of its success and its reputation. Contributors to the journal must not only present new theories or ideas, but also back them up with research. In the process, many myths are exploded, philosophies reinvented and the scene set for topical debate on critical issues in B2B marketing. The B2B landscape evolves and so does the research that explores the emerging features and properties of B2B markets. From 2019 the journal hosts the IMP Forum that invites research advancing the boundaries of B2B marketing. Prior research has evidenced that interactivity and interdependences characterize interorganizational business relationships. The Forum aims to bring out research that explores interactivity and interdependences in business relationships and their implications for marketing management, business development and for society at large.
