In the age of knowledge economics, how to get important information and use it to make decisions fast is a hot topic for many companies. For this reason, knowledge management has become a major solution program, and Enterprise Information Portals (EIP) are widely adopted. It is hoped that EIP will create more valuable knowledge for companies. Alongside this development, there has been a change in the nature of business competition.. Enterprises pay more attention to interaction with their collaborative partners because of the evolution of complex value chains and the integrative capabilities of IT. Collaborative commerce will attract more attention than electronic commerce in the 21 century.
This research starts with the interaction between EIP and collaborative commerce, and discusses how EIP affects the performance of collaborative commerce. Finally, this study will try to build a research framework to describe the relationship between four research dimensions.
There are qualitative and quantitative researches in this study. In the qualitative research, we will interview with staff in Yulon Motor Company in order to explore how does EIP work in practice and how Yulon does undertakes collaborative commerce. After interview, difference between theory and practice are identified. In the quantitative research, questionnaires are distributed to R&D staffs in Yulon, China Motor Corporation and Ford motors. Questionnaire data will be analyzed by regression and canonical correlation analyses.
From the analysis results, EIP is significantly associated with collaborative commerce. Due to access restrictions which prevent its use by non-employees, the influence of EIP is weakened. This study suggests that the effectiveness of the various enterprise information systems would be increased by their integration into a single information platform, and specifically that the potential effectiveness of the EIP for collaborative commerce can only be realized by linkage with partners’ information systems.
