A Conceptual Model For Collaborative Commerce Technologies Adoption

Abstract

<span>The principle objective of this research is to develop a conceptual model to study the relationships between<br /><span>collaborative commerce tools adoption, collaborative supply chain implementations, service innovations and the<br /><span>competitive advantages gained by manufacturing companies in Hong Kong/China and Malaysia. One challenge for<br /><span>governments in these countries is to ensure that their manufacturing industry remains competitive globally. This<br /><span>paper presents the first stage of our study which aims to develop a conceptual model which will then be empirically<br /><span>tested to formulate strategies that companies and government in Hong Kong/China and Malaysia can use to improve<br /><span>their competitiveness. This study aims to bridge the gap in the existing studies in innovation and supply chain<br /><span>management by firstly focusing on collaboration in supply chain management, and secondly in the service.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></span>
