Accepted: 2 September 2017 Thailand hosts over 50 percent of the world's top OEM automotive parts suppliers and additionally is home to over 2,400 Tier 1-3 manufacturers and suppliers. Given the significance of these numbers and Thailand's leading ranking and contribution to the global automotive industry, research was undertaken to determine how manufacturing clusters and innovation capability effect competitive advantage as it relates to automotive production part management. Multiple objectives were established which included the study of the effects and overall influences of the various variables on competitive advantage as well as the development of a structural equation model (SEM) to define how innovation and manufacturing clustering affects the competitive advantage within the Thai automotive parts molding sector. Quantitative methods analysis was conducted on the data from 240 automotive production and components suppliers' questionnaires collected from industry managers with the research results partially obtained from the analysis by use of (PLS)-graph. Qualitative research was also obtained by use of purposive sampling from in-depth interviews from ten senior managers. The results obtained indicated that clusters and innovation capability has a significant and positive effect on competitive advantage. Thus, the findings from the research illustrate that if an organization focuses on clusters, there will be a knock-on effect within the automotive parts groups leading to the increase in innovation capability, which creates a greater competitive advantage, not only for the enterprises, but also for Thai society as well.

“…Supplier development is especially important for critical items (Osiro et al 2014, Kraljic 1983, Nellore and Söderquist 2000and De Boer et al 2001. Krause (1997) Effective supplier development initiatives include development of strong partnership and integration ties between all the stakeholders (including suppliers) as a basis for long term engagement, collaboration, innovation and continuous improvement (He et al 2014, Blome et al 2014, Krause 1997.

“…Trust theory supports the notion that the decision to place trust in something is driven by a person's mental attitude, prediction or evaluation of the item, the intention to delegate trust, as well as the behavior or intentional act of trusting (He, Lai, Sun, & Chen, 2014). Factors such as motivation, willingness, ability, "know-how", a person's self-confidence, beliefs, opportunities, dangers, obstacles, and safety all impact on a person's decision to trust (Castelfranchi & Falcone, 2010).…”

Aim/PurposeThis journal paper seeks to understand historical aspects of data management, leading to the current data issues faced by organizational executives in relation to big data and how best to present the information to circumvent big data challenges for executive strategic decision making. BackgroundThis journal paper seeks to understand what executives value in data visualization, based on the literature published from prior data studies. MethodologyThe qualitative methodology was used to understand the sentiments of executives and data analysts using semi-structured interview techniques. ContributionThe preliminary findings can provide practical knowledge for data visualization designers, but can also provide academics with knowledge to reflect on and use, specifically in relation to information systems (IS) that integrate human experience with technology in more valuable and productive ways. FindingsPreliminary results from interviews with executives and data analysts point to the relevance of understanding and effectively presenting the data source and the data journey, using the right data visualization technology to fit the nature of the data, creating an intuitive platform which enables collaboration and newness, the data presenter's ability to convey the data message and the alignment of the visualization to core the objectives as key criteria to be applied for successful data visualizations Recommendations for Practitioners Practitioners, specifically data analysts, should consider the results highlighted in the findings and adopt such recommendations when presenting data visualizations. These include data and premise understanding, ensuring alignment to the executive's objective, possessing the ability to convey messages succinctly and clearly to the audience, having knowledge of the domain to answer questions effectively, and using the right technology to convey the message. Recommendation for ResearchersThe importance of human cognitive and sensory processes and its impact in IS development is paramount. More focus can be placed on the psychological factors of technology acceptance. The current TAM model, used to describe use, identifies perceived usefulness and perceived ease-of-use as the primary consid-
