“…The high ranking was attributed to Taiwanese companies' strong performance in research and development, which resulted in its ability to capture significant global market shares in personal computers (75%), LCDs (50%), semiconductors (25%), and mobile phones (20%) (Ministry of Economic Affairs of the Republic of China, 2009). Some of these businesses, such as Foxconn, Quanta Computer, Acer and Asus, are well known worldwide as global supply chain suppliers and brand owners (Law, 2009). Overall, 32% of Taiwan's GDP is attributed to the information and communication technology (ICT) industry.…”

“…To meet such challenges, high-tech firms are forced to continuously change and develop to advance and to sustain (Law, 2009). Based on this continual change and high investments, a high level of collaboration can be expressed as an appropriate strategy to meet these challenges (Sari, 2008;Yuan et al, 2010).…”

Collaborative Planning, Forecasting and Replenishment (CPFR) as an interconnection scheme between organizations has been shown to have significant benefits. Since its inception in the 1990s, its uptake has been lower than originally predicted. This paper identifies the major barriers and their interrelationships in CPFR implementations with a focus on high-tech industries. Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) is used with a group of CPFR experts from industry/academia and Matrice d'Impacts Croisés Multiplication Appliquée àun Classement (MICMAC) analysis to identify the driving and dependence powers. The paper identified 45 CPFR barriers and classifies them into four categories based on expert opinion, with only 13 of these determined to be significant. The results indicate that in terms of categories, managerial barriers are a significant root cause for both process and cultural barriers and CPFR implementation difficulties. It also indicates that although the importance of information technology to launch collaborative schemes has been addressed by many scholars, technology alone is not the complete solution for successful CPFR implementation. The paper has significant practical implications for organizations as it identifies the main CPFR barriers and their causal relationships. This will help firms in the process of CPFR strategy development particularly for mitigation strategies for dominant barriers.

“…Second, FCEPs made by Taiwanese high-tech manufacturers, including original equipment manufacturers (OEM), own design manufacturers (ODM), and own-brand manufacturers (OBM), remain dominant in global markets [159]. Leading global FCEP brands, such as Apple, Sony, Hewlett Packard, Dell, and Toshiba, have subcontracted with Taiwanese OEM/ODM firms [160]. Taiwanese FCEP producer-dealer distribution channels are the most complex producer-dealer distribution channels worldwide.…”

Green Supply Chain Collaboration for Fashionable Consumer Electronics Products under Third-Party Power Intervention—A Resource Dependence Perspective

Under third-party power intervention (TPPI), which increases uncertainty in task environments, complex channel power interplays and restructuring are indispensable among green supply chain members as they move toward sustainable collaborative relationships for increased viability and competitive advantage. From the resource dependence perspective, this work presents a novel conceptual model to investigate the influence of political and social power on channel power restructuring and induced green supply chain collaboration in brander-retailer bidirectional green supply chains of fashionable consumer electronics products (FCEPs). An FCEP refers to the consumer electronics product (e.g., personal computers, mobile phones, computer notebooks, and game consoles) with the features of a well-known brand associated, a short product lifecycle, timely and fashionable design fit for market trends, and quick responsiveness to the variations of market demands. The proposed model is tested empirically using questionnaire data obtained from retailers in the FCEP brander-retailer distribution channels. Analytical results reveal that as an extension of political and social power, TPPI positively affects the reciprocal interdependence of dyadic members and reduces power asymmetry, thereby enhancing the collaborative relationship of dyadic members and leading to improved green supply chain performance. Therein, reciprocal interdependence underlying collaborative relationship is the key to reducing the external environmental uncertainties in the TPPI context.
