The Impact of Institutions on the Resources of Foreign Companies: The Case of Third Party Logistics Service Providers in Russia

2014-11-05 , Moser, Roger , Kuklinski, Christian , Weidmann, Markus

Emerging markets and transition economies challenge established business theories. In this paper, we conceptualise a framework incorporating the institution- and resource-based view to analyse how institutions impact the operations of western companies in a transition economy context: foreign third party logistics service providers (3PLs) in Russia. Our case study's findings center on the question of how institutions affect foreign 3PLs' local operations in Russia along six resource and six institutional dimensions. The findings assert the most challenging effects to occur in the areas of human resources, physical resources and organizational resources - and also suggest a new ‘legal resource' in this particular context.

The impact of rent-based supplier management activities on purchsing performance

2014-01 , Saxena, Anupam , Moser, Roger , Rogers, Helen

The increasing pace of globalisation and deregulation has changed the role of purchasing and it has evolved from a (traditional) routine to a more prominent strategic function. This research tests and analyses the strategic character of the purchasing function and its ability to create competitive advantages for its company. Based on the four important strategy theory approaches: market-based view, resource-based view (RBV) capability-based view and relational view and their respective rent generation mechanisms, the research framework developed evaluates whether specific rent-based supplier management activities across industries have an impact on performance, as proposed in the strategy literature.
