Outline
The motivation of this project is to answer the research question on what really drives product and process innovation. Since the most production processes are sequential, product and process innovation may happen in customer-supplier interactions along a supply chain. Since manufacturing processes has been fragmented and extended globally, product and process innovation might happen across firms in developed and developing countries like ASEAN countries.The main objectives of the research project are twofold:
(1) to measure causal impacts of organizational capacity and inter-firm learning on performances of local firm (especially small and medium firm); and
(2) to understand why many firms cannot be involved in global supply chains and what can be done to promote the entering into global supply chains.
