Modern day e-businesses can create significant capital for corporations while enhancing long-term efficiency. As such, they have become a source of economic development for many nations. Lately, the e-commerce industry has been undergoing a polarization of profits due to competition, with SMEs businesses seeing very low performance even though trade volume has increased tremendously every year. The cause for this can be found in the lack of accumulated knowledge available as practical reference along with a shortage of knowledgeable professionals. Therefore, this study intends to suggest a model that presents a direction of consulting for SMEs businesses to increase their competitiveness in e-business. Moreover, the study notes that technology and organization are the two variables that affect e-business value through e-business capability.Keywords

Objectives: This study aims to explore theoretical base on such condition and to prepare a fundamental base of future studies. Methods/Statistical Analysis: To analyze factors influencing on the sales of traditional marketplace, survey for empirical studies on traditional market located at the old urban center of capital area where facility modernization implements have conducted. First, the market characteristics was analyzed by conducting a frequency analysis on age of merchant, business period, type of business and business item, after that, the analysis on the statistically significant influences of each variable on the sales has conducted through multiple regression analysis setting monthly sales as an independent variable and quantitative data as a dependent variable. For the dependent variables, quantitative data that can be measured objectively and dummy variable on identifiable nominal scale have utilized. Thus, the factor analysis and reliability analysis that are general research procedure have skipped. Findings: The independent variables putting a statistically significant influence on the independent variable, a sales amount, have shown to be size of store, business period, number of employees, and type of business, and customer staying time, ratio of regular customer, and age of merchant have shown to be statistically insignificant. Among statistically significant variables, the business period variable has shown to be negative (-) influence and remained variables have shown to be positive (+) influence. Especially, the reason that the size of store has shown a high standardization regression coefficient and it has shown to put significant influence on sales can be interpreted, as the demand of merchant to enlarge size of store is the most sensitive assignment to solve. In addition, the reason that business period influences negative effect (-) different from other variables can be understood that it cannot have positive influence on sales at the declined and deteriorated traditional market, and sales of merchants who have entered the market as a second mover is higher. Improvements/Applications: This study has its significance to prepare a base for future studies by analyzing influencing factors on sales of traditional market that were incomplete in previous studies. Through this study, the factors influencing on sales of traditional market, positive (+) and negative (-) effect can be identified, and it can be utilized as the fundamental data to establish political support direction of traditional market.Keywords

Objectives: This study was carried out to rearrange and identify the characteristics of the quality elements of Consulting Service and aims to reinforce the competitive advantage after analyzing and improving it. Methods/Statistical Analysis: As for the study method, the consulting service quality elements were arranged by theoretical consideration, adapted Kano model for each service quality factors, and classified them into quality element categories such as Attractive, Must-be, One dimensional, Indifferent and Reverse quality elements. Also, as for the influence of customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction, CS-Coefficient (Customer Satisfaction Coefficient) was utilized to verify the result. Findings: This study reorganized the quality scale based on existing studies regarding consulting service quality, and classified the quality element scales defined by Kano model. In order to find quality awareness element for the competitive creation among the consulting service quality elements, the study adopted Kano model to see how to access to consulting service strategically as follows. First, among the 28 measurement items for the 6-scale elements, there were 3 attractive, 1 must-be, 1 questionable and 23 one-dimensional quality elements, and there were no reverse and indifferent quality elements. Second, the “E-1 (Consultant’s individual interest to customer)” was One-dimensional quality element in Kano analysis, but in Timko’s CS-Coefficient analysis, it was attractive quality element. Third, based on the fact that “E-1(Consultant’s individual interest to customer)” and “R-5 (Securing customer information and company secret)” belongs to attractive quality element, the consulting workers will be able to utilize it as useful information in strategically decision making when improving the service competitiveness. Improvements/Applications: Distinguishing whether or not the subject group has the consulting service experience to examine the group difference is proposed for the future study.Keywords

Objectives: This study intends to examine factors which have effects of the biometric-based non-face-to-face authentication system on end users’ willingness to use the system, and how such factors affect their willingness to use the biometric system. Methods/Statistical Analysis: This study offers a biometric system user model which adds user innovativeness, self-efficacy, and perceived playfulness, focusing on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) which proved to be very effective in explaining the willingness to use information technology of users. To test goodness of fit and hypotheses, hierarchical regression analysis was performed. Findings: The analysis proved that effort expectancy, social influence, user innovativeness, self-efficacy, and perceived playfulness have meaningful effects on the intention to use the system. And, the experience of using general biometric media was found to have moderating effects on the relationship between intention to use and social influence. Improvements/Applications: This study suggests that more efforts should be made to increase usefulness and convenience of the system and to strengthen the basis of facilitating conditions.Keywords

Objectives: This paper first defines the concept of commercial environment design consulting and examines spatial design components. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Also, this paper reviews general design consulting processes and then analyzes the tasks and processes adopted in relatively advanced Japanese firms specializing in commercial environment design. Based on the review and analysis, this paper develops stepwise design consulting modules and defines module-specific tasks. Findings: The commercial environment design consulting significantly differs from the general product-oriented industrial design consulting. The present study proposes the consulting modules that enable customized consulting services, facilitate seamless communication between clients and consultants and improve project outcomes. A total of 22 modules comprise the minimal independent work units and the core process steps derived from the process-compliant approach to design consulting which is currently dealt with in academic and practical research, and from Japanese commercial environment design firms’ processes and application projects, given the fact that the commercial environment design has long been developing in Japan in contrast to Korea. Application/Improvements: The proposed commercial environment design consulting modules are variably applicable to projects of different scales and attributes and serve as reference data for academic research and practical application.Keywords

Background/Objective: Consulting is providing a meaningful contribution to strengthening small business competitiveness. In order to ensure that consulting obtains the results it intended, selecting a suitable consultant is very important. Method/ Statistical Analysis: From a sociological embeddeness and signal theory perspective, this study conducted an empirical analysis on what kind of standards that are applied when selecting consultants leads to a positive influence on satisfaction levels and results. 700 samples were gathered by conducting a random survey of Korean small business owners who had experienced consulting in 2014. In empirical analysis, it was analyzed using SPSS and AMOS 21. Findings: Results found that of the selection factors, embeddedness factors had a meaningful influence on consulting satisfaction levels, and that signal factors and consulting satisfaction levels had a meaningful influence on perceived performance results. Results also showed that of the selection factors, embeddedness factors did not have a meaningful influence on perceived performance results. In the studies on the strategic partner selection of consulting firm and the selection of information security consultant, the result that selection factors affect the satisfaction or performance is partially similar with this study. In the area of management consulting, the study on the selection factors of consultant is rare. In the previous studies on the similar selection factors had unclear or no theoretical background. This study has the meaning as a approach with the theoretical basis of embeddedness theory and signal theory about the consultant selection factors. Application/ Improvements: This study provides implications for the selection criteria to be applied when companies choose the consultant. Companies need to consider the signal factors more importantly, such as education, qualifications, experience.Keywords

Background/Objectives: Since 2012, cooperatives between small businesses have been increasing rapidly. Thus this study conducted an empirical analysis on the effect of education, consulting and conflict levels on cooperatives’ competitiveness. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The data used in this study consist of 290 valid samples of individual interviews based on standardized survey responses from 360 cooperative executives who received government support in 2014. Factor analysis was done using statistical packages SPSS21, Effects between variables was analyzed by structural equation model using AMOS21 statistical package. Findings: The main interests of existing studies are agricultural cooperatives and credit unions, but this study empirically analyzed by targeting commercial cooperatives. Also existing cooperative research concentrated on legal, institutional, or normative approaches. However, this study approached this research by placing importance on conflict management within a partnership, as well as the importance of education and consulting on securing the small business cooperatives early on, and on their continuous development and competitive growth. This study did confirm the importance and role of education and conflict management for the cooperatives. Education satisfaction levels do not significantly affect conflict levels, but do significantly affect competitiveness. Conflict levels significantly affect competitiveness. However, consulting satisfaction level was found to not have a significant influence on conflict levels within a partnership as well as competitiveness. This coincides with the additional analysis on the relationship between consulting satisfaction levels and consultant competencies. Results revealed that current consulting services are insufficient for establishing cooperative business models. Application/Improvement: Current consulting services do not have a significant effect on conflict management or cooperative competitiveness. This study offers an operational perspective on this issue: current cooperative consulting services require improvement.Keywords
