Research On Incentive Mechanism In Telecom Information Product Supply Chain Based On Vertical R&D Cooperation

This research work is to optimize the incentive mechanism of the supply chain of telecommunication information products and further enhance the development of the market of the telecommunication information. Through the research and analysis on the status of the mechanism of the supply chain cooperation in different countries, by combining the supply chain characteristic, the research results on its incentive and cooperative mechanism, it is found that, currently, there is insufficient research in the field of incentive of vertical R&D collaboration of the supply chain of the telecommunication information products in China.This research work is based on the collaborative game theory, supply chain theory and incentive theory. A model of non-cooperation game between the telecommunication information service provider and telecommunication operators has been created. As an incentive element, vertical R&D collaboration has been introduced to further optimize the model.Theoretical analysis shows that the creating of the dynamic admission mechanism will help standardize the market. Vertical R&D collaboration based telecomm information supply chain incentive mechanism will help inspire the innovation and eventually benefit the overall society. This research work also studied the effect of managing the market of mobile information product in China, analyzed a cooperation project between a telecommunication operator and service provider as a case study to further verify the proposed theoretical model. Based on the analysis results, several proposals have been made on the policies to optimize the incentive mechanism of the operators.Based on theoretical analysis and case study, this research work has achieved the following:1. Theoretically verified the feasibility and validity of the vertical R&D collaboration as an incentive mechanism element for the telecommunication information product.2. Based on the real case analysis results it is obvious that, as an incentive mechanism, vertical R&D collaboration based telecommunication information product development model has significant advantage compared with other models.3. A new theoretical model has been proposed by using vertical R&D collaboration as an incentive mechanism for the new telecommunication information product development.In this research work, an innovative theory has been proposed by introducing the vertical R&D collaboration as an incentive mechanism. It will not only provide valuable guidance for complete the collaborative development model of virtual products similar as telecommunication information products, but also expand the field of incentive mechanism research of supply chain and make a significant contribution to the supply chain theory.
