| Tiivistelmä: | As innovation as such is an information processing activity, a key issue influencing on the success of new product development (NPD) programs, particularly those responding to global markets, is the firm's ability to access, share and apply NPD information. Thus, an IT communication strength is crucial, one that is nested in an internal organizational environment ensuring its effective functioning. Based on organizational information processing (OIP) theory as a framework, superiour global NPD program performance is shown to result from an effective IT communication strength and the commitment components of the firm's internal environment, hypothesized to moderate this relationship. Using data from a major empirical study of international NPD programs (382 SBUs), a model is developed and tested. Based on a hierarchical regression analysis, there are found substantially supportive results, with some unexpected findings, though. These elucidate the complex relationships of the firm's internal environment, OIP competency, and global NPD program performance. |
