| Popis: | 106 The purpose of this study is to explore the formation, governance, and evolution dynamics of cooperation among multiple firms across competing corporate synergy systems. Linking the coopetition and competitive dynamics perspectives to strategic alliance, this study conducted a single-case study to analyse the alliance dynamics between two corporate synergy systems in the Taiwanese bicycle industry. To divide the cooperation into three stages which includes initial stage, growth stage, and maturity stage, this study presents the interactions between motivation of cooperation, partner selection, and governance mechanism along the alliance life cycle. Further, the performance of each stage would have impacts on the following stages. Extracting from the research findings according to the three cooperation stages, this study proposed a loop composed of the evolution of alliance, the tension within cooperation, the evaluation of benefits, and the dynamics of the cooperation. While multiple competing firms form an alliance, the degree of tension within cooperation and the evaluation of benefits during different stages would influence the dynamics of cooperation. On the other hand, this study also suggests that the governance mechanisms would be applied contingent on the evolution of alliance. This study also provides implications of roles of the third party who has involved in the cooperation. To connect to external resources, to be the neutral governance authority, and to strengthen the commitments of each member firm within the alliance, the thirty party plays a role to consolidate the relationship and benefits during the cooperation stages. |
