- W165743330 abstract "Alliances within construction have increased significantly in number and in the volumeof activity they undertake in recent years. Further, communications technologies haveprogressed to a degree where they can support collaborations across geographicborders. The prevailing literature generally notes that alliances are effectivecollaborative 'vehicles', which facilitate 'automatic' knowledge sharing. Althoughwriters in the field highlight benefits of developing knowledge sharing as a corecapability to create and maintain sustained collaboration and sustainable competitiveadvantage, a majority of the alliances engage in short-term orientated work processestargeting short-term commercial advantages. This research contextualised thisphenomenon within construction alliances and investigated the business logic ofdeveloping knowledge sharing as a core capability.First, a conceptual model was developed from a review and synthesis of the relevantliterature. The four variables in the conceptual model were:(i) Alliance strategic direction;(ii) Alliance Climate;(iii) Task relatedness of messages communicated through knowledgetransfer mechanisms; and(iv) Media richness of knowledge transfer mechanisms.The conceptual model comprised the framework for five interrelated hypotheses. Then,the hypotheses were tested utilising two construction alliance case studies: HN alliancewas a project based joint venture alliance between two large international constructioncontractors and XY alliance is a long-term strategic partnering alliance between apetroleum retailer and a construction project management company. The principal datacollection methods used were semi structured interviews for senior executives andstructured interviews for the project managers. The principal method used for dataanalysis was cognitive mapping.The empirical testing of hypotheses revealed that the alliances concentrated on shorttermcommercial advantages to the detriment of longer term sustainable competitiveadvantages. Therefore, initiatives taken to improve high quality interactions amongalliance participants and thereby sustain inter-firm relationships have not yielded theanticipated benefits. The study comments on the diagnostic robustness of the initial" @default.
