Thanks to the global information age,the rapid penetration of information technology to all areas of the economy and society makes its more and more difficult for a single enterprise to innovate.It is a wise choice for enterprises to establish strategic alliances with external organizations to obtain complementary resources and enhance innovation capability.With the expansion of the scale of the alliance,enterprises are facing increasingly complex management issues.Although the alliance provides an effective way to create value,the current study shows that about half of the League ended in failure.This instability and high failure rate is one of the factors that hinder the innovation behaviors of enterprises.Thus two issues,such as how to make full use of the advantages of the alliance and how to coordinate the relationship between the alliance partners to improve the innovation capability of the enterprises become the main problems faced by the alliance managers.In this thesis,we first find out the problems from the practical background and literature theory.Then the concept of alliance routines,inter organizational learning,absorptive capacity and innovation capability are summarized.Based on the theory of organizational learning,innovation management and other related theories,some hypothesis are put forwarand and the theoretical model is constructed.Secondly,the conceptual model of the design of the research program is designed,including the determination of research variables and measurement methods,the preparation of the scale and the questionnaire issued a formal questionnaire.Effective questionnaires are obtained from 264 companies.The SPSS 22.0 software is used to analyze the alliance routines,inter-organizational learning,absorbing capability and innovation capability by the exploratory of factor analysis,reliability analysis and correlation analysis.After the reliability analysis of the data,regression model and structural equation model are utilized for empirical analysis,then the following main conclusions are obtained:The results show that the alliance routines have a significant impact on the firm's incremental innovation capability and disruptive innovationability.Among them,inter organizational learning plays an intermediary role in the influence of alliance routines composed of behavioral logic,implicit norms,mutual consensus on the ability of incremental innovation and disruptive innovation.On the other hand,absorptive capacity plays a moderating role in the influence of behavioral logic,implicit norms to both the incremental innovation capability breakthrough innovation capability of enterprises such as under the influence of alliance routines.According to the research's conclusion,alliance routines can promote the innovation ability,and strengthen the inter organizational learning,which provides a strong support for the improvement of innovation capability.In this thesis,the alliance routines and innovation capability are put into the same research framework,and the theoretical model of the influence mechanism of alliance routines on innovation capability is constructed.This will not only expand the theoretical research of innovation capability and enrich the theoretical system of alliance management at the same time,but also enhance the innovation capability of enterprises to provide a new management thinking example and practice guidance.
