Research offers insights and pathways for the digital convergence of agricultural enterprises, sparking innovative dynamism.

Identifying Risks in Cross-border Mergers and Acquisitions: Taking Geely as an Example

The merger and acquisition integration of enterprises involves the future development of enterprises, especially for cross-border integration, due to the differences in management and culture between the two enterprises, the difficulty of integration is relatively higher. Complementary advantages can only be achieved when both parties achieve better integration. Before implementing M&A integration, the company should do a background check on the acquisition target, confirm the possible risks after the acquisition, and take comprehensive countermeasures. In the process of implementing mergers and acquisitions (M&A) integration, the acquirer should actively establish effective communication channels and reduce the cultural differences of the enterprise during the communication. In terms of follow-up operation and management, we should actively learn the advanced management experience and operation model of the target company. people can adopt a cooperative model to retain the original operation model of the acquired company, and at the same time encourage the enthusiasm of employees for independent research and development. Finally, enterprises should pay attention to the human resource management after the acquisition. By understanding the needs of employees, formulate targeted plans to retain excellent employees, and attract new talents through salary, benefits, and corporate culture, so as to realize the people-oriented development concept.

Design and Implementation of Power Big Data Platform

In recent years, with the advancement of the national construction of smart grid and the development of power grid enterprise integration system, the traditional power data platform has some defect, such as insufficient scalability, repeated implementation of two sets of logic of off-line data warehouse and real-time data warehouse, highly correlated storage of data warehouse during computation, and difficulty in platform migration, which restrict the deeper mining and analysis of power big data. Therefore, this paper adopts a technical architecture incorporating distributed calculating, micro-service, flow-batch integration and lake-warehouse integration, combining the current popular Web front-end and back-end technologies such as Vue, SpringCloud and Flask, and utilizing big data components such as Hadoop, Flink, Hudi and Kafka as well as Docker containerization technology. We explore and build a power grid system operation oriented big data platform that assembles real-time computing, multi-source heterogeneous data storage, and develop APIs for authority management, information management, data analysis and visualization, machine learning and other data supporting services that assist power enterprises in managing electrical equipment and users’ power consumption.With the help of this platform, power enterprises can intelligently track the equipment status, view the offline and real-time visual charts to analyze the power consumption by users, so as to have better basis in the power dispatching, maintenance and scheme adjustment of electrical market.

Do cleaner production standards upgrade the global value chain position of manufacturing enterprises? Empirical evidence from China

The harmonious development of trade and environment is extremely crucial for developing countries that face challenges posed by extensive economic models and environmental pollution as they strive to engage more deeply in the global economy. This article utilizes micro-level data from the Chinese Industrial Enterprises Database (CIED) and the Chinese Customs Trade Database (CCTD) from 2000 to 2012. It takes China's implementation of cleaner production standards (CPS) since 2003 as a quasi-natural experiment and applies staggered DID to investigate the impact and mechanisms of exogenous shocks from environmental policies on upgrading and transformation of enterprise value chains. The aim is to provide comprehensive empirical evidence regarding the availability of environmental regulations and the GVC position of Chinese enterprises. Thus, we also offer valuable insights for similar developing countries seeking a path toward high-quality advancement. The research findings are as follows. First, CPS exerts a significant upgrading effect on enterprise value chains, and this conclusion is highly robust. Second, heterogeneity analysis reveals that the upgrading effect of CPS on value chains is predominantly influenced by factors including the enterprise's asset scale, ownership structure, geographical location, trade pattern, as well as the technological level and pollution intensity within its specific industry. Third, further tests through mechanism analysis reveal that CPS expedited the integration of Chinese manufacturing enterprises in GVC by promoting innovation and R&D capabilities, enhancing total factor productivity, and improving labor wages.

Architecting the Future: A Model for Enterprise Integration in the Metaverse

Although it has a history that goes back about three decades, Metaverse has grown to be one of the most talked-about subjects today. Metaverse gradually increased its influence in the realm of business discourse after initially being restricted to discussions about entertainment. Before getting deep into the Metaverse, it should be noted that failure and deviating from the business path are highly likely for an enterprise that relies heavily on information technology (IT) because of improper use and thinking about IT. The idea of enterprise architecture (EA) emerged as a management strategy to address this issue. As the first school of thought of EA, it sought to transform IT from an unnecessary burden in an enterprise to a guiding and supporting force. Then an extended EA model is suggested as a result of the attempt made in this paper to use the idea of EA to steer virtual enterprises on Metaverse-based platforms. Finally, to evaluate the conceptual model and demonstrate that the Metaverse can support businesses, three case studies—Decentraland, Battle Infinity, and Rooom—were utilized.

IPSAAS Attributes Dissensions and SMEs Tax Payment Compliance Integrity

AbstractThis study analyses International Public Sector Accounting Standards' effects on the integrity of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) tax payment compliance. This study uses a cross-sectional survey design based on primary data from a questionnaire administration. The sample size is three hundred and nine SMEs. This study employs Descriptive, Pearson Correlation and Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) statistical analysis. Findings show that among the tax payment compliance impeding factors are the government's inability to satisfy SMEs in service delivery improvement and developmental goal promise actualisation. SMEs' resistance to pay tax results from a flawed tax dispute resolution system at a severe mitigating significant level. The governance responsiveness through IPSASs attributes dissension contradicts John Locke's social contract doctrine of civil society rights and benefits. Hence, this study recommends that officeholders should enhance the SMEs' tax payment compliance level. Public officers' approach to governance should reduce taxpayers' exploitation for self-aggrandisement. Keywords:Tax payment compliance, Integrity, International Public Sector Accounting Standards, Small and Medium Enterprises, Government Responsiveness

Leveraging Digital Empowerment for Green Product Innovation: Unraveling the Mediating Role of Resource Integration and Reconfiguration in Chinese Manufacturing Enterprises

The rapid digital transformation and the imperative for sustainable practices have made it crucial for Chinese manufacturing enterprises to adapt and achieve green product innovation by effectively utilizing digital technologies. This study takes a resource-based perspective from strategic management and develops a chain mediation model to examine how Chinese manufacturing enterprises can achieve green product innovation through digital empowerment. A questionnaire survey was conducted with 229 managers, and a multiple mediation model was employed to test the hypotheses. The findings highlight that a higher level of digital business intensity positively influences green product innovation, with resource integration playing a significant mediating role. However, the mediating effect of resource reconfiguration is found to be non-significant. Furthermore, there exists a sequential chain mediation effect of resource integration and resource reconfiguration in the relationship between digital business intensity and green product innovation. To ensure successful green product innovation, Chinese manufacturing enterprises need to focus on accumulating R&D experience and knowledge through resource integration, enabling them to identify latent market demand and develop corresponding green products. This approach facilitates an organic fusion of incremental and breakthrough innovation. The study contributes to the advancement of management paradigms driven by digitalization and the theory of green product innovation, offering valuable insights for Chinese manufacturing enterprises seeking to achieve green innovation through the effective utilization of digital technologies. Additionally, it provides practical implications for enhancing the adaptability of Chinese manufacturing enterprises to market demand and promoting the adoption of “dual carbon” practices.

Main approaches to the assessment of the efficiency of corporate integration of enterprises in investment and construction complex

Важную роль в рамках управленческой деятельности традиционно выполняет функциональный блок оценки эффективности (в более широком смысле — результативности), определяющий подходы как к обоснованию управленческих решений, так и к их оценке. Современная российская и общемировая практика инвестиционно-строительной деятельности демонстрирует устойчивые тенденции к развитию разнообразных форм корпоративных объединений различных субъектов. Корпоративная интеграция в существенной мере может способствовать повышению устойчивости и эффективности функционирования субъектов, в том числе за счет синергетических эффектов интеграции. Понимание результативности деятельности организации в современном менеджменте значительно расширяется и не ограничивается только измерением достижения результата как части эффективности, а становится более системным и обобщающим понятием. Исходя из этого результативность деятельности может быть определена как комплексная многопараметрическая характеристика, отражающая способность организации достигать сбалансированных стратегических и тактических результатов, удовлетворяющих интересам и требованиям заинтересованных субъектов, с позиции повышения экономической эффективности, улучшения качества менеджмента, создания добавленной ценности, повышения конкурентоспособности организации в целях ее устойчивого развития. Проведенное автором исследование современных методологических подходов к определению результативности экономических систем в целом и субъектов инвестиционно-строительной деятельности в частности позволило выделить основные подходы к оценке эффективности корпоративной интеграции в инвестиционно-строительном комплексе в зависимости от превалирующих критериальных принципов и целевых векторов формирования эффективности как составляющей интегральной категории — результативности деятельности. Применение данной системы подходов в практике решения задач управления и оценки эффективности корпоративных структур может расширять трактовку эффективности и способствовать развитию управленческого инструментария.

Digital transformation of agriculture: A new integrated modeling framework for arable farm enterprises

With the increasing integration of information technology in arable farms, enterprise integration (EI) is becoming increasingly important. As farms handle many applications, all of which work in isolation from one another, integrating these disparate systems to create unity across the enterprise has clear value. One critical aspect of EI is business integration, which helps the enterprise align the use of technology assets with the business to achieve strategic goals. While existing enterprise modeling (EM) methods are often used to model industrial or general enterprises for business integration, they do not fully meet the needs of arable farm enterprises. This study aims to propose an EM framework for arable farm enterprises that provides an effective and practical method for business integration. Therefore, an integrated EM framework for arable farm enterprises (IEMFAFE) is proposed using a domain analysis approach based on EM theory. Additionally, steps and methods for modeling arable farm enterprises based on IEMFAFE are provided. A multi-case study shows that IEMFAFE is well suited for modeling arable farm enterprises. The high expressiveness of IEMFAFE enables accurate descriptions of enterprise details and extraction of the service modules and information entities necessary for system design, significantly improving the speed and quality of the system design. The contributions of this study will benefit both researchers investigating the integration of arable farm enterprises and practitioners aiming to architect integrated farm management information systems.

Introduction. The recovery of Ukraine's economy in the war and post-war periods is impossible without rebuilding the modern institutional structure of the financial sector, in which the leading place will be occupied by the domestic stock market. Problem Statement. Taking into account the fact that the stock market of Ukraine is not formed and does not correspond in most parameters to other countries of the Eastern European region, it is advisable to consider its features in more detail and propose more effective reforms in this area. Purpose. To identify the key problems that led to the decline of the domestic stock market, analyze the best practices and successful approaches to the development of securities markets in the world, as well as formulate proposals for the reconstruction of a more modern and efficient market in Ukraine. Methods. Theoretical and methodological basis of the research is scientific works of foreign and Ukrainian scientists, modern statistical information base of the stock exchanges. The study of problems and approaches related to the peculiarities of the development of the Ukrainian stock market was carried out using the methods of critical and scientific analysis, comparative analysis, scientific generalization and systematization, induction and deduction. Results. The development of the stock market in the context of digitalization opens up significant opportunities for a more innovative and rapid renewal of Ukraine. But the essential problems of the domestic stock market remain: 1) non-performance of the basic functions that are typical for other countries; especially the asset pricing function; 2) insecurity of the rights of citizens of Ukraine on the stock market; 3) lack of corporate efficiency and clear specialized vertical integration of large Ukrainian enterprises; 4) payment of dividends only to the majority shareholders, the state and manipulation with them. Conclusions. Modern developed stock markets of the world have a significant potential in the context of the development of both traditional and digital economies, so there is an urgent need to modernize the domestic stock market. At the same time, the development of the stock market will have great prospects if the infrastructure is significantly improved, the ownership of assets in Ukraine is respected, and the corporate sector respects the public interest.
