HOW. This factor wasn’t identified as an important factor. In one case suggestions were made about increasing efficiency by increasing connectivity. So in the case discussed, this factor does make the information sharing itself more efficient, but doesn’t actually increases the effectiveness of the information. This factor wasn’t identified as being relevant. A good reason for this is that as many information can be transmitted electronically, it is easy to reach the right person. Next to the factors mentioned above, the willingness to cooperate is also a relevant factor for the quality of the information sharing mechanism. First of all, in this case the suppliers mentioned that ASML has a relatively “rigid” way of working. This has had in some cases result that suppliers stopped mentioning improvements. The combination of these two findings, indicate that the willingness to cooperate from both sides is limiting the number of improvements that are being implemented and therefore the quality of the information. Which is also an important proof of the model.
