本研究探讨了内部整合（II）和外部整合（EI）对产品创新的单独和组合效应。两个组合的效果-平衡整合和互补整合-检查。基于双元性理论，理论上的综合影响的II和EI，以促进探索和开发的外部和内部的知识，从而提高产品创新。我们的调查数据分析，从泰国汽车行业的constitutes，EI和互补性整合与产品创新呈正相关，但II和平衡的整合与产品创新无关。这项研究是第一个提供新的见解如何探索和利用外部和内部的知识可以促进内部和外部的整合，以及它们对产品创新的互补作用，这是以前不太了解。我们的研究结果为参与供应链整合实施的企业提供了管理见解。
This research examines the individual and combined effects of internal integration (II) and external integration (EI) on product innovation. Two combined effects—balanced integration and complementary integration—are examined. Based on ambidexterity theory, the combined effects of II and EI are theorised to facilitate exploration and exploitation of external and internal knowledge, and subsequently improve product innovation. Our analysis of survey data from the Thai automotive industry ascertains that EI and complementary integration are positively associated with product innovation, but II and balanced integration are not associated with product innovation. This research is the first to provide novel insights into how exploration and exploitation of external and internal knowledge can be facilitated by internal and external integrations, and their complementary effects on product innovation, which was previously less understood. Our findings provide managerial insights for firms involved in supply chain integration implementation.
