合作新产品开发知识资源动态投入决策研究

Knowledge resource dynamic investment decision in cooperated new product development

摘要:

现有对合作新产品开发中资源投入决策的研究常常忽视知识资源的重要性和独特性，特别是未认识到企业间双向、多次的知识转移过程，以及此过程对企业知识资源投入的动态影响。本文以供应链上下游两个企业间的合作研发环节为例，基于知识开发和双向、多次的知识转移过程构建了合作开发模型，并在考虑知识水平增长滞后性的基础上，分别探讨了在不同的初始知识水平、滞后效应等情况下最优的知识资源投入决策，最后借助数值实验展现了相应的变化趋势。研究表明：在考虑双向、多次知识转移过程的情况下，最优资源投入决策在研发周期内动态改变，而合作双方的初始知识水平会明显影响整个过程中最优资源投入决策的变化趋势；在最优资源投入决策中，知识开发过程中资源投入量的最大值总是出现在期初时刻，而知识转移过程中资源投入量的最大值在不同情况下会有所变动

Abstract:

Existed study of resource investment decision in cooperated new product development often ignore the importance and uniqueness of knowledge resources, especially ignore the bidirectional and multiple knowledge transfer process between enterprises, as well as the impact of this process on dynamics of knowledge resource investment. This paper took the cooperative research and development of two enterprises in supply chain as an example, built a process model of cooperated new product development based on knowledge development and knowledge transfer process. On the basis of considering the lag in knowledge growth, optimal resource investment decisions were discussed under different factors such as initial knowledge level, hysteresis effect and so on, and corresponding trends were showed with numerical experiments. We show that the optimal resources investment decision dynamically changed during the R&D cycle under the bidirectional and multiple knowledge transfer process, the initial knowledge level of both sides significantly affects the trend of optimal decision in knowledge transfer. As such, we show that the maximum value of optimal decision in knowledge development always appears in the beginning moment, which, however, will range under different circumstances in knowledge transfer
