Die Koordination von Supply Chains — eine transaktionskostentheoretische Untersuchung

Abstract

Zusammenfassung Das Supply Chain Management stellt hohe Anforderungen an die Koordination von Transaktionen. In der Literatur existieren zahlreiche heuristische Ansätze, welche entsprechende organisatorische Gestaltungsempfehlungen geben. Diese entbehren jedoch bislang einer theoretischen Fundierung. In diesem Beitrag wird daher mittels einer transaktionskostentheoretischen Analyse die Koordination von Supply Chains untersucht. Es zeigte sich, dass die Verwirklichung dieser Ansätze durch hohe Spezifität und Unsicherheit gekennzeichnet sind. Unter diesen Bedingungen empfiehlt die Transaktionskostentheorie die vertikale Integration. Diese Gestaltungsempfehlung steht allerdings im Widerspruch zur Flexibilitätsanforderung, welche sich aus Wettbewerbs- und Kundenanforderungen des SCM ableitet. Daher wird abschließend untersucht, ob der Einsatz von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IuK) Unsicherheit und Spezifität reduzieren kann.
