摘要
工程总承包项目中,总包方与分包方合理的关系嵌入有助于实现良好的跨组织资源协奏,增强总承包模式的竞争优势。但是现有关系嵌入对资源协奏影响的研究存在关系嵌入性悖论,且缺少对项目行动者认知层面能动性影响的考虑,难以解释工程总承包项目跨组织资源协奏的内在规律。基于此,协同考虑关系嵌入和项目治理机制,从制度逻辑视角出发,采用多案例研究方法,以四个典型的工程总承包项目为研究对象,探讨总包方与分包方的跨组织资源协奏路径。研究发现:(1)在强联结与弱联结的初始关系嵌入情境下,存在项目导向与参与方导向两种跨组织资源协奏行为,同时,约束导向与激励导向的治理机制能够与关系嵌入发挥协同作用,影响跨组织资源协奏的方式和效果。(2)不同的关系嵌入协同项目治理机制通过总包方与分包方之间的制度逻辑耦合作用于项目跨组织资源协奏。研究结果为关系嵌入性悖论提供了新的理论解释,也为工程总承包企业根据所处关系嵌入情境,采取合适的项目治理机制,进而优化跨组织合作提供理论支持与实践参考。
In EPC(Engineering Procurement Construction)projects,a reasonable relationship between the general contractor and the subcontractor is embedded to help achieve a good inter-organizational resource orchestration and maximize the competitive advantages of the general contracting model.However,the existing research on the impact of relational embeddedness on resource orchestration suffers from the paradox of relational embeddedness and lacks the consideration of the impact of project actors’cognitive initiatives,which makes it difficult to explain the internal logic of inter-organizational resource orchestration in EPC projects.Based on this,from the perspective of institutional logic,this paper adopts the multi-case study method and takes four typical EPC projects as the research object to explore the path of inter-organizational resource orchestration under different relational embeddedness between the general contractor and the subcontractor.It is found that:(1)project-and participant-oriented inter-organizational resource orchestration behaviors exist under the initial relational embedding of both strong ties and weak ties,and the design of constraint-and incentive-oriented governance mechanisms can synergise with relational embeddedness to influence the nature and effect of inter-organizational resource orchestration.(2)different relational embeddedness collaborative project governance mechanisms acts on the inter-organizational resource orchestration of the project through the institutional logic coupling of the general contractor and the subcontractor’s.The findings provide a new theoretical explanation for the relational embeddedness paradox,as well as theoretical support and practical reference for the general contractors to adopt appropriate project governance mechanisms to optimize inter-organizational cooperation according to the relational embeddedness situation.
