Research On The Iron And Steel Enterprises Cluster Competitiveness Based On Innovative Network

The enterprises cluster, as a special form of spatial organization, showed remarkableactivity in the current system of regional economic, and provoked interest of researchers andpolicy makers in many areas. As the innovative platform of the relating factors of cluster,Innovation network create a continuous cluster innovative edge. By studying the relationsbetween Innovation Network and Enterprises cluster competitiveness, building a evaluationsystem of enterprise cluster competitiveness from the new perspective, providing a theoreticalbasis for methods and means to improving cluster innovation network from the perfect angleand enhancing the competitiveness of enterprises cluster.The advantage of enterprises cluster reflect on enterprises cluster competitiveness.。TheIron and steel Industry is a kind of resource relied industry. The early form of Iron and steelenterprises cluster lies on prominent resources advantage, and gradually formed organizationnetwork, production network, circulation network, R&D network, social network in theconstant maturation process. Although the is constitute of the above five kind of networks, butorganization network, production network, circulation network, R&D network, social networkseparately played leading role in enterprises cluster during the different stages of theprocedure, it remarks the enterprises cluster transformed from the low cost competitiveness tohigh added value of the products competitive；During the initial stage, the organizationnetwork play a leading role in enterprises cluster, showing more competitive relationship thancooperation relations; after a period, by the demand of increasing production, iron and steelenterprises cooperate together, production networks gradually began to play a leading role andfurther promoted the capacity of production; production network plays a leading role based onsteel production, with impact of local environmental and external resources bottleneck,recycling economy’s co-operation appears more important, circulation network began to playa leading role; with the further development, the external pressure of competitioncontinuously strengthen, the problem of product simplification in a cluster began to emerge,R&D network plays the leading role in this stage; The continuing success of research anddevelopment is not only based on related resources constantly update, but also rooted in thepassing and communicating of the hidden silence knowledge and message under the samesocial and cultural background, social network take the dominant role. To sum up, the abovementioned five kind of networks exit in every stage of the iron and steel enterprise cluster development, the powerful advantage of enterprises cluster competiveness comes out of theIntegration of organization network advantage, production network advantage, circulationnetwork advantage, R&D network advantage, social network advantage.ased on the abovementioned theory, this thesis established a iron and steel enterprises cluster competitivenessevaluation index system including5aspects,4levels,39concrete elements, using thesynthetic index method and principal component analysis to contrast and dynamic evaluateobjects from1999to2008, and put forward the corresponding countermeasures andsuggestion to promote the iron and steel enterprise cluster competitiveness developmentaccording to the result.
