Abstract

Information sharing in supply chains may result in concerns related to information security, information access privileges, and allocation of claimed benefits. To mitigate such concerns in order to efficiently and effectively share information, relationships among the supply chain actors need to be managed and effective governance structures need to be chosen. Despite initial research, a comprehensible supply chain analysis of the role of governance structures in information sharing is missing. The aim of this paper is, therefore, to investigate how and to what extent supply chain information sharing can be explained by supply chain governance structures. To take into account the multi-dimensionality of information sharing, the specifications of which information to share and how to share it are considered. Based on case study data from three European pork supply chains, we conclude that information sharing cannot be solely explained by governance structures. The results show that information sharing is apart from governance structures strongly determined by quality regulations, financial strength (power) of the chain partners, and the relationships that are aimed for. Consequently, our study challenges the general assumption that a more integrated governance structure is accompanied by more types of information shared through the use of automated information systems.

治理结构在供应链信息共享中的作用
供应链中的信息共享可能导致与信息安全、信息访问特权和声称的利益分配相关的问题。为了有效地和有效地共享信息,减轻这种担忧,需要管理供应链参与者之间的关系,并选择有效的治理结构。尽管进行了初步研究,但缺乏对治理结构在信息共享中的作用的可理解的供应链分析。因此,本文的目的是研究供应链治理结构如何以及在多大程度上解释供应链信息共享。考虑到信息共享的多维性,需要考虑共享哪些信息以及如何共享信息的规范。基于三个欧洲猪肉供应链的案例研究数据,我们得出结论,信息共享不能仅仅用治理结构来解释。结果表明,除治理结构外,信息共享在很大程度上取决于质量法规、链合作伙伴的财务实力(权力)和目标关系。因此,我们的研究挑战了一个普遍的假设,即一个更集成的治理结构伴随着通过使用自动化信息系统共享的更多类型的信息。
