SCM과 B2B전자시장의 경쟁

This study examines how SCM and B2B e-marketplace compete with each other in internet-based economy, from the perspective of transaction cost theory. SCM and B2B are regarded as innovative tools for inter-organizational relationship, but their organizing principle for transaction is quite different. B2B refers to spot market transaction between organizations, whereas SCM focuses on cooperative relationship of networks. As expected, both tools have achieved the reduction of transaction cost by using internet. However, organizational decision to adopt either of them depends on incentive structure shaped by the characteristics of industry and institution where the organizational transactions are embedded.
