“…To achieve breakthrough change and high-quality development, enhance the competitive ability, and achieve the transformation and upgrading in accordance with the development of new problems, new economic mode, and new consumption demand, enterprises should investigate novel technologies, develop novel products, create new markets, develop new industry innovation behavior, which is high-risk, large-scale, high-return, and radical exploratory innovation [25]. Exploitative innovation is more related to the updating, transformation, and improvement of products and technologies based on the original and the reuse of original knowledge and resources [26,27]. Compared with exploitative innovation, exploratory innovation will acquire, integrate, digest, and absorb new knowledge, resources, and technologies.…”

In China, enterprises participating in targeted poverty alleviation can be provided with a strategic resource to enhance their ultimate value creation ability and directly win reputation and obtain sustainable competitive advantages, thus enhancing their innovation ability. In this study, the influence and mechanism of the participation in targeted poverty alleviation on enterprise innovation investment are empirically examined based on financing constraints with the data of nonfinancial listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen from 2012 to 2019 as the object. The research suggests that enterprises taking the initiative to participate in targeted poverty alleviation can first have increased innovation investment and especially enhanced exploratory innovation ability. Second, enterprises’ participation in targeted poverty alleviation can reduce financing constraints of enterprises’ innovation, improve their resource allocation efficiency, and stimulate their innovation vitality primarily through the influence of resource, reputation, and information. This study enriches the theoretical research on the economic consequences of targeted poverty alleviation and provides a reference for guiding enterprises in practice to fulfill social responsibilities to promote enterprises’ innovation vigor and boost their high-quality development.

“…TCET pinpoints that governance of relationships is anticipated by the behavioral uncertainty and asset specificity and hence opportunism (Williamson, 1975). Strategic supplier relationships based on relational governance is more crucial than its alternatives (Tolmay and Antwerpen, 2021). The theory stipulates relationship-specific investments and reduced uncertainty as animated for the success of relationship to wane the risk of opportunism (Williamson, 1975).…”

“…Thus the scenario entails quick intervention to rally commitment of buyer-supplier collaboration. Different scholars narrated commitment of buyer-supplier collaboration as of a great essence (Tolmay and Antwerpen, 2021). The aforementioned assertion that unsatisfactory performance was due to a lack of commitment, on the other hand, could be due to a lack of fidelity to suggest improvements to suppliers, joint problem solving, the duration of the relationship and enthusiasm to invest resources in the relationship.…”

PurposeThis study was steered to establish how buyer–supplier collaboration's commitment attributes serve as an antecedent for procurement performance in large manufacturing entities in Tanzania.Design/methodology/approachA parallel, concurrent, mixed method was used in the study. Quantitatively, 52 firms were surveyed from Temeke Municipality, Tanzania, using questionnaire that specified 1 procurement manager and 1 store manager from those firms, totaling a sample size of 104 respondents. Qualitatively, expressive opinions to supplement the numeric data were gathered from supply chain managers using the saturation principle. Explanatory design analyzed the existing cause–effect relationship, and the null hypotheses were tested using binary logistic regression at p values < 0.05 and ExpB > 1.FindingsFidelity and enthusiasm to suggest improvements to suppliers and the duration of the collaboration antecede the procurement performance of the manufacturing firms in Tanzania, while devotion to invest resources and initiatives on joint problem solving have no significant impact.Research limitations/implicationsThe causality between buyer–supplier collaboration and procurement performance has been revealed. Since there might be third party logistics in collaborations, future research should center on their moderating effect.Practical implicationsA framework has been developed for liberating procurement performance in the context of large manufacturing firms in Tanzania.Originality/valueBased on Transaction Cost Economics and Resource Dependency Theories, the study revealed the root cause of procurement performance in the context of Tanzanian manufacturing firms, while also considering commitment to buyer–supplier collaboration as a prerequisit for the commendable target.
