In the supply chain, companies are increasingly relying on the combination of internal knowledge creation and external knowledge resources to form a new “open innovation” approach. How to govern inter-organizational relationships (IOR) is a key determinant of knowledge creation, which involves both formal contracts and relationship behaviors. Formal contracts determine the roles and obligations of partners in the exchange, and relationship behavior is generated by mutual benefit from the exchange of various resources. Moreover, when the knowledge creation process requires partners to exchange knowledge, supply chain technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud-computing based advanced communication services are key in promoting the partners’ willingness to communicate. Therefore, this study uses the governance mechanism of the supply chain as a theoretical framework, and proposes an innovative and complete research model to explore the factors that influence open innovation capability in supply chains. PLS is used to analyze 140 samples collected from 600 organizations, the response rate is 23.3%. This study finds that supply chain technology has a stronger effect than both of the IOR issues, contractual governance and relational governance, for the exchange of tacit knowledge and explicit knowledge. The findings improve our understanding on how governance mechanism and technology drive the knowledge creation process towards open innovation success in the context of supply chains.

在供应链上，企业越来越依赖于内部知识创造与外部知识资源相结合，形成一种新的“开放式创新”方式。如何治理组织间关系（IOR）是知识创造的关键决定因素，它涉及正式合同和关系行为。正式契约决定了合作伙伴在交换中的角色和义务，而关系行为则是通过各种资源的交换互惠互利而产生的。此外，当知识创造过程需要合作伙伴交流知识时，物联网 (IoT) 和基于云计算的高级通信服务等供应链技术是促进合作伙伴交流意愿的关键。所以，本研究以供应链治理机制为理论框架，提出创新完整的研究模型，探讨影响供应链开放式创新能力的因素。PLS 用于分析从 600 个组织收集的 140 个样本，响应率为 23.3%。本研究发现，供应链技术对隐性知识和显性知识的交换比 IOR 问题、合同治理和关系治理都具有更强的影响。这些发现提高了我们对治理机制和技术如何推动知识创造过程在供应链背景下实现开放式创新成功的理解。并提出创新完整的研究模型，探讨影响供应链开放式创新能力的因素。PLS 用于分析从 600 个组织收集的 140 个样本，响应率为 23.3%。本研究发现，供应链技术对隐性知识和显性知识的交换比 IOR 问题、合同治理和关系治理都具有更强的影响。这些发现提高了我们对治理机制和技术如何推动知识创造过程在供应链背景下实现开放式创新成功的理解。并提出创新完整的研究模型，探讨影响供应链开放式创新能力的因素。PLS 用于分析从 600 个组织收集的 140 个样本，响应率为 23.3%。本研究发现，供应链技术对隐性知识和显性知识的交换比 IOR 问题、合同治理和关系治理都具有更强的影响。这些发现提高了我们对治理机制和技术如何推动知识创造过程在供应链背景下实现开放式创新成功的理解。契约治理和关系治理，用于交换隐性知识和显性知识。这些发现提高了我们对治理机制和技术如何推动知识创造过程在供应链背景下实现开放式创新成功的理解。契约治理和关系治理，用于交换隐性知识和显性知识。这些发现提高了我们对治理机制和技术如何推动知识创造过程在供应链背景下实现开放式创新成功的理解。
