Title: "Information Sharing, Ordinary Capabilities and Firm Performance"
Abstract: This study examined the mediating role of ordinary capabilities (manifested by operations capabilities) in the relationship between information sharing and firm performance. By drawing on the dynamic capabilities perspective, we propose that information sharing, as a dynamic capability, deploys and reconfigures the existing operations capabilities, which in turn lead to superior firm performance. Moreover, this study investigated how a firm’s environmental turbulence moderates the information sharing-operations capabilities link. Using a simple random sampling method, we collected data from 154 manufacturing firms in China. Multiple regression and bootstrapping methods were used to test our model. The results reveal that operations capabilities fully mediate the relationships between both MS and MB information sharing and performance. Moreover, environmental turbulence enhances the effects of both MS and MB information sharing on operations capabilities. We offer both theoretical and managerial implications.
