History of success Sample Clauses

History of success. One of the main activities that constitute SCM is the building and maintenance of long-term relationships (Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 1990). Strategic alliances or partnerships is not restricted to provide advantages for cooperating organizations at that certain point of time, but could help in future inter-organizational cooperation. According to SET, interaction over time that gives positive outcomes strengthens partnerships through the creation of trust and commitment (Xxxxx et al, 2001). With trust and commitment present, TRV suggests that the presence of self-enforcing agreements may arise, which is a source of competitive advantage. Further, TRV suggests that if organizations have a feeling of commitment and trust between each other, the incentives to share knowledge and make relation-specific investments are increased. Considering trust and commitment, research on IOS success factors highlights the importance of having a strong external commitment (Xx et al, 2006).

History of success. Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxx (2005) conducted an original study. The purpose of their paper was to apply results of research on successful families to SCM in order to suggest how supply chain relationships can be improved. Combining family strengths research, based on surveys and interviews of more than 6000 successful families over a period of 20 years, with research on supply chain relationships, a model is developed that should guide managers in developing and maintaining strong supply chain relationships. Figure 5 demonstrates their findings.
History of success. In going through the initial relevant literature on IOS and SCM when developing the research model, it was clear that effective SCM requires a focus on building and maintain long-term relationship. The reason is obvious – sharing sensitive information, integrating processes, and cooperating on common goals are activities that require a lot of trust and commitment, and such psychological factors require time and a certain relationship duration to develop. History of success is in this thesis proposed as a factor that is critical in determining the success of an IOS for SCM purposes. The factor should comprise, from a theoretical viewpoint, the concepts of trust and commitment, as SET suggest that both is developed over time in a relationship if the outcomes resulting from it is beneficial to every party. Hence, developing feelings of trust and commitment between business partners requires interaction with positive outcomes over a certain period of time that is not regarded as short-term. In sum, the factor was developed and proposed as critical in affecting an IOS’s success with a basis in four aspects: - SCM literature which emphasizes the building and maintenance of long-term relationships - IOS literature on success factors which highlights strong external commitment - SET which implies that trust and commitment requires a certain relationship duration - TRV that suggests that if there is trust and commitment between business partners then self-enforcing agreements may arise and can function as a source of a competitive advantage Through the literature review it is revealed that the duration, or amount of interactions over time, is strongly positively associated to development of trust and commitment. Xxxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxxxx (2005) clearly state that the most certain way to build trust within a relationship is spending time together. Also, spending time together is a demonstration of commitment, supporting the view that organizations should invest in team building and training across organizational boundaries. Through committing time and resources to a relationship, the likeliness of the continued success of it is greater. This is also in line with Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxx (2006) who find that to develop closer supply chain relationships there is a need to develop high levels of trust, commitment, and dependence. What is evident, however, is that this is something that is developed over time within a relationship, and that supply chain partners should have ...
