摘要

尽管b区块链对建筑项目合作的影响众说纷纭，但它对承包商及其供应链合作伙伴（scp）之间关系的决定性影响在很大程度上仍未得到探索。为了解决这些差距，本研究构建了一个概念框架，将区块链与计算信任、关系信任和技术准备相结合。然后，利用偏最小二乘结构方程模型对189名与承包商及其scp合作的专业人员进行了调查，对该框架进行了评估。我们的研究结果强调了区块链对承包商与其scp之间合作的积极影响。本研究的两个显著发现是：(1)计算信任和关系信任对合作的中介作用显著；(2)关系信任在区块链对合作的中介作用中比计算信任表现出更强的影响。此外，我们发现技术准备程度显著增强了b区块链与协作之间的关系。

Effect of blockchain and inter-organizational trust on collaboration between contractors and supply chain partners

Despite conflicting opinions on blockchain’s impact on collaboration within construction projects, its definitive effect on the relationships between contractors and their supply chain partners (SCPs) remains largely unexplored. To address these gaps, this study constructed a conceptual framework that integrates blockchain with calculative trust, relational trust, and technology readiness. This framework was then evaluated using partial least squares structural equation modeling, drawing on a survey of 189 professionals working with contractors and their SCPs. Our findings underscore blockchain’s positive effect on collaboration between contractors and their SCPs. Two of the notable findings obtained from this study: (1) this relationship is mediated significantly by both calculative and relational trust, and (2) relational trust exhibited a more potent influence in mediating the effects of blockchain on collaboration than calculative trust did. Further, we found that technological readiness significantly bolstered the relationship between blockchain and collaboration.

期刊介绍： in Shams Engineering Journal is an international journal devoted to publication of peer reviewed original high-quality research papers and review papers in both traditional topics and those of emerging science and technology. Areas of both theoretical and fundamental interest as well as those concerning industrial applications, emerging instrumental techniques and those which have some practical application to an aspect of human endeavor, such as the preservation of the environment, health, waste disposal are welcome. The overall focus is on original and rigorous scientific research results which have generic significance. Ain Shams Engineering Journal focuses upon aspects of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering, environmental engineering, architectural and urban planning engineering. Papers in which knowledge from other disciplines is integrated with engineering are especially welcome like nanotechnology, material sciences, and computational methods as well as applied basic sciences: engineering mathematics, physics and chemistry.
