ODA 수혜국에서 디지털 서비스화가 국내 소부장 산업의 지역·기업 규모별 글로벌 공급망 성과에 미치는 영향

The Impact of Digital Servitization on the Global Supply Chain Performance of South Korea’s MCE Industry in ODA Recipient Countries

Purpose - This research examines the relationship between 12 causal conditions in ODA recipient countries and the trade performance (exports, imports, trade balance) of Korea’s materials, components, and equipment (MCE) industry using fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA). Design/Methodology/Approach - We analyzed trade performance across six Korean regions (Gyeonggi, Gyeongnam, Gwangju, Daegu, Busan, Chungbuk), three company sizes (large, medium, small), and four time periods (2018-2023), exploring how digital servitization impacts trade outcomes through configurational analysis. Findings - Regional success patterns varied significantly. Gyeonggi leveraged ICT infrastructure and innovation for high-tech exports, Gyeongnam utilized port-based logistics, Gwangju emphasized public-private partnerships, Daegu focused on innovation outcomes, Busan relied on high-tech exports, and Chungbuk emphasized digital technology. Company size influenced success factors. Large companies shifted from innovation to institutional factors, medium firms depended on institutional conditions and R&D, while small firms evolved from cybersecurity to ICT infrastructure. During COVID-19, institutional stability became critical across all sectors. Industry-specific patterns emerged with materials industries relying on digital technology, components on digital capabilities, and equipment on institutional environment. Research Implications - ODA policies should strengthen recipient country digital infrastructures and be tailored to regional characteristics. The fsQCA methodology revealed non-linear causality in global supply chains, capturing temporal dynamics and multi-level interactions in digital transformation, demonstrating how ODA facilitates mutual development between donor and recipient countries.
