Abstract
The improvement of enterprises’ standardization capability can enhance the quality of products and services, thereby strengthening the core competitiveness. However, it is difficult for a single enterprise to master all the technologies, therefore, standard cooperation is an important channel for enterprises to obtain resources. This article investigates whether and how standard cooperation affects enterprises’ standardization capability. Using the survey data of 165 enterprises in the ICT industry, the study reveals the effectiveness of standard cooperation in promoting enterprises’ standardization capability. In particular, it examines the positive impact of standard cooperation depth and breadth on standardization capability. In addition, technological capability significantly enhances the positive impact of standard cooperation depth on enterprises’ standardization capability rather than that of standard cooperation breadth. Therefore, it is suggested that enterprises should optimize their standard cooperation network relationships, choose different partners according to their technological capabilities, and formulate differentiated standard competition strategies.
