物流服务供应链网络对物流服务集成商成长的作用机制——以网络能力为中介

The Influence Mechanism of LSSC Networks on the Growth Performance of Logistic Service Integrator——Taking Network Ability as the Intermediary

将社会网络理论与资源基础理论、能力理论相结合,在彭罗斯资源—能力—成长理论框架下研究物流服务供应链网络各类子网络通过网络能力促进物流服务集成商绩效成长的作用机制,可以证实网络能力的中介效应。物流服务集成商只有充分利用各种物流服务供应链网络资源,注重网络能力的规划、构建、管理与组合,才能更好地提高成长绩效。为此,物流服务集成商需要充分意识到通过物流服务供应链网络获取资源的重要性,以网络化视角寻找物流合作伙伴,对物流企业进行网络布局和规划,使企业获得竞争优势;需要根据企业发展需求,评估各类物流服务供应链子网络所需要的投入及其潜在价值,利用企业有限的精力发展最需要的关系网络,获取网络资源;需要重视企业网络能力的中介作用,通过企业对网络资源规划、构建、管理、组合能力的提升,实现物流服务供应链网络中各类资源的优化配置,促进企业的成长。

According to Penrose’s theory of“resource-ability-growth”,the authors use the network ability as the intermediary,build the framework about how the logistic service supply chain(LSSC)network affect the growth of logistic service integrator(LSI).They use the empirical method to explore the influencing path about how the five LSSC sub-networks affect the LSI growth performance,and confirm the mediation effect of the network ability. Only with the use of different resources of logistic service supply chain networks,and paying more attention to the planning,construction,management and combination of network ability,will the growth performance of LSI be improved. So,the LSI should,first,fully understand the importance of acquiring resource through LSSC network,search logistic partners from the angle of network,carry out arrangement and planning of logistic enterprises,and make them to acquire the competitive advantages;second,they should evaluate the investment of LSSC sub-networks and the potential value,develop the most critical relation network with their limited energy;and third,they should pay more attention to the intermediary role of enterprises’network ability,realize the optimized distribution of different resources involved in LSSC network and promote the growth of enterprises by improving their ability for network resources planning,construction,management and combination.
