The influence of environmental dynamism on strategic outsourcing success: a partial least squares structural equation modelling approach

摘要

Environmental dynamism is considered an increasingly important factor in creating competitive value by outsourcing management. The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship between environmental dynamism and outsourcing success. To meet this challenge, an empirical model was developed to investigate the role of environmental dynamism in strategic outsourcing success using two statistical tools, partial least squares and structural equation modelling. The results confirmed that the three dimensions of environment dynamism - namely customer demand, changes in technology and market competition level - have a significant positive effect on outsourcing success.
