Abstract

에서 지역의 산업․경제 육성 및 학문․연구 진흥의 의무를 규정하고 있으며, 주정부는 지역의 혁신환경 조성, 경제․산업 및 고등교육기관 육성의 책임을 가지고 전담부처를 구성하여 자율적으로 사무를 수행한다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 우리나라의 지역과학기술정책에 대한 시사점을 다음과 같이 도출하였다. 첫째, 지자체가 지역과학기술혁신 사무를 추진할 법적 근거를 마련하는 것이 필요하다. 둘째, 정부가 지역과학기술혁신관련 사무를 지자체에 위임

Nowadays competition in business is changing from company level to supply chain level, due to many pressures from business environment change, including fast development of technology, needs for faster delivery and gentrification of customers’ needs. This change demands companies to take new approach of SCM (Supply Chain Management), which seeks both to improve customer satisfaction and to reduce SC cost by making the several companies in a SC act like one entity using various technological and behavioral initiatives of SCM. Among various initiatives of SCM, there is one called ‘supplier development,’ which means all long-term cooperative effort by a company to improve its suppliers’ various capabilities to improve their performances and, moreover and by doing so, the company’s quality and performances as well. Supplier development concept can be divided into ‘human-specific supplier development’ and ‘capital-specific supplier development.’ The former includes technological support, actual visit to supplier company, supplier’s participation in product design and the latter includes supplier’s transaction-specific facilities and equipment, new facility investments and a company’s transaction-specific materials and components. In summary, supplier development can be defined as a long-term cooperative effort by a company to upgrade its suppliers’ technical capabilities, quality delivery, and costs in view of continuous improvement. The purposes of this study are, in the first step, to define and conceptualize companies' supplier development practice and to examine empirically the causal relationships between supplier development activities and production performance. As the second step of this study, we examined whether there are moderate effects on the relationship of 2 operations capabilities, as strategies of companies, of quality and delivery. To confirm two models we conducted sample survey for empirical analysis to 162 companies nationwide. The results of our study are as follows. Firstly, both supplier development practice and production performance are proper as constructs for models for empirical studies. Second, suppler development practice has positive effect on production performance. Third, quality strategy showed significant positive moderate effect on relationship between supply chain practice and production performance, while delivery strategy did not. This result implies that those quality strategy has synergistic effect on supplier development effort of companies in order to improve performance. This study offers an implication to identify the optimal strategic combination of supplier development practice and quality strategy, which have a synergistic effect on production performance.
