“…For instance, while construction customers (i.e. clients and/or employers) are becoming more and more concerned about building products' attributes and sustainability (Lello et al, 2023b;Yu et al, 2022), the delivery of these projects is governed by key stakeholders (e.g. government institutions) requiring PBOs to comply with regulatory standards (Lello et al, 2023b;Ozawa, 2023;Pauna et al, 2023).…”

PurposeAgenda for knowledge creation within inter-project alliances and inter-firm supply chain networks has been extensively debated. However, the existing knowledge networks within consultant-supplier interfaces in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry seem to be vague, loose, incidental and insignificant. This study examines factors affecting knowledge networking intention (KNI) within construction service supply chain (CSSC) networks.Design/methodology/approachData analysis was conducted on a quantitative survey of 161 consulting professional service firms in Tanzania, employing stepwise regression modelling as the statistical technique.FindingsThe results indicate that three types of knowledge inertia (KI) exert varying effects on KNI. While both procedural (PI) and learning inertia (LI) negatively impact KNI, experience inertia (EI) has no impact on KNI. In addition, knowledge governance (KG) mechanisms are found to strongly strengthen and leverage the negative effects of PI and LI on KNI and the positive link between EI and KNI within outbound and heterogeneous CSSC actors, with formal KG having greater leverage than informal KG.Practical implicationsThe study offers guidance on how managers of PBOs should strategically orchestrate knowledge governance mechanisms within CSSC networks to leverage KI behaviours.Originality/valueCurrent literature on KNI, KI and KG within CSSC networks offers a limited understanding of how KI behaviours influence KNI of project-based organizations (PBOs) in tapping vibrant outbound peripheral knowledge. The research presents two major original contributions. First, the empirical evidence contributes to deepening the current understanding of how heterogeneous external knowledge within consultant-supplier interactions is negatively influenced by KI. Lastly, the study suggests formal and informal knowledge governance strategies for managers on how to counteract KI forces, thus extending the theoretical debate on KNI, KI and KG literature.

“…The knowledge shared with coworkers, particularly in supply houses, improves manufacturing companies' performance (Jarrahi, 2018). The study by (Yu et al ., 2022) examined the validity of the KM process to understand a firm's effectiveness and operational performance. The study's outcome demonstrated a positive connection between the KM process and operational performance.…”

PurposeEmployee knowledge is an essential contributor to managing supply chain ambiguities and supply improvement. The current research examined green technology (GT) implementation and knowledge management (KM) processes toward knowledge worker supply performance (KWSP). The present study postulates that GT implementation's positive impacts on the KM process and KM process lead to improved KWSP based on employee knowledge contribution.Design/methodology/approachTo accomplish the research objective, the data were taken from those production houses that are utilizing GT. A total of 400 questionnaires were distributed in Zhengzhou city, and feedback was received (343). The feedback data were studied through partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) and fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA). fsQCA is used to analyze improving the multiple configurational paths of KWSP.FindingsThe study revealed that GT implementation is positively associated with the KM process, and KM processes substantially influence the improvement of KWSP. The consequence of fsQCA demonstrated that various combinations improve supply chain performance. The study combines certain dimensions of GT implementation with the KM process, revealing that supply chain performance improved based on knowledge sharing in manufacturing firms.Research limitations/implicationsThis study guides decision-makers and academics on using the knowledge process associated with GT to improve supply chain performance. Moreover, future researchers should use information technology in supply houses and compare the result with the literature to generalize the results better.Originality/valueThe asymmetric technique assists in differentiating the connections that are not directly investigated by the traditional symmetric method. The study covers and identifies various approaches that can be used in manufacturing firms to improve the supply chain process and employee satisfaction. The study combines the two techniques to understand supply performance based on knowledge sharing in manufacturing firms.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of intellectual capital (IC) components and absorptive capacity (ACAP) on entrepreneurial orientation (EO). Furthermore, it attempts to investigate the mediating role of ACAP between intellectual components and EO.Design/methodology/approach Using a self-administered survey to sample the Jordanian pharmaceutical industry, the research measurement scale was adapted from previous studies, and data were collected from 24 pharmaceutical companies. The proposed conceptual model and associated hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling.Findings The empirical findings indicate that relational capital (RC) and structural capital (SC) have a significant impact on EO and account for 72.2% of this aspect. However, it is somewhat unexpected to find that human capital does not have a significant direct impact on EO. ACAP positively mediates the relationships between RC and SC and EO. Finally, this study has several theoretical and practical implications with regard to the business literature and management practices.Originality/value This research bridges gaps in the literature and highlights the importance of ACAP in knowledge-based industries. The assessment and estimation of how knowledge ACAP is associated with entrepreneurship orientation has not been previously provided. From a practical perspective, the findings of this research can be used by firms in the pharmaceutical industry to enhance ACAP and better exploit their IC, leading to a more proactive and innovative entrepreneurship orientation. This, in turn, can lead to the development a new products and services. Furthermore, by examining the mediating role of ACAP between intellectual capacity components and EO in the pharmaceutical industry, the research contributes to the growing body of literature on entrepreneurship orientation in developing countries.
