摘要/Abstract

摘要： 本文结合我国的企业联盟实践和相关理论,提出了IT能力的概念,并运用实证方法验证了IT整合能力对IT关系能力的影响.结构方程模型的结果表明,在IT整合能力中,IT集成能力正向影响IT管理能力;在IT关系能力中,IT与业务关系正向影响外部IT联系;且IT整合能力对IT关系能力具有正向影响,IT集成能力通过IT管理能力的部分中介作用正向影响IT关系能力;IT管理能力通过IT与业务关系的部分中介作用正向影响外部IT联系.该研究不仅为基于联盟的IT能力提供了理论基础,也对企业经理管理联盟中的IT活动具有一定的参考价值.

Abstract: Based on the strategic alliance theories and practices in China, this paper proposes concepts of information technology (IT) capabilities and empirically tests the impacts of IT integrative capabilities on IT relationship capabilities. Results of structural equation modeling show that among IT integrative capabilities, IT integration capabilities are positively related to IT management capabilities. Among IT relationship capabilities, relationship capabilities between IT and business are positively related to external IT linkage capabilities. IT integrative capabilities are positively related to IT relationship capabilities. IT integration capabilities are also positively related to IT relationship capabilities through the partial mediating role of IT management capabilities, and IT management capabilities are positively related to external IT linkage capabilities through the partial mediating role of relationship capabilities between IT and business. This study not only provides a theoretical contribution to IT capabilities from the perspective of enterprise alliance, but also provides managerial insights for managers to manage IT activities in the enterprise alliances.

Key words: IT capability, IT integrative capability, IT relationship capability, enterprise alliance
