The Impact of Block-Chain on Collaborative Product Innovation of Manufacturing Supply Chain

Abstract

In view of the collaborative innovation and development of enterprises’ products. It is an effective measure to improve the innovation efficiency of the manufacturing industry of China and promote the steady development of enterprises. More and more enterprises attach importance to collaborative product innovation based on resource sharing among supply chain nodes. As a decentralized data collection and sharing technology, the block-chain can provide support for resource sharing and business collaboration among enterprises in supply chain. As a trust guarantee system, the block-chain can provide support for resource sharing and business collaboration among supply chain enterprises. However, as a new technology, the use of block-chain by enterprises is still in a wait-and-see state. In order to help enterprises effectively understand the impact of block-chain on the collaborative product innovation of manufacturing supply chain, this paper will study the influencing factors of collaborative product innovation of supply chain on the basis of characteristics and actual situation of collaborative product innovation of Chinese manufacturing enterprises. First of all, we will make an empirical analysis on the current situation and existing problems of supply chain collaborative product innovation in China’s manufacturing industry through questionnaire survey, so as to study the problems in detail. Secondly, through the literature analysis of supply chain collaborative product innovation, this paper puts forward some measurement indicators, some research hypotheses, and then constructs a conceptual model of the influence factors of supply chain collaborative product innovation. Finally, based on the empirical study of the proposed model, some suggestions are put forward to improve the efficiency of supply chain collaborative product innovation.
