Research on Mode of Enterprise Technical Standards Alliance for the “Belt and Road” Initiative Based on Proceduralised Grounded Theory

Abstract

Abstract: Based on the study of related literature, this paper summarizes the characteristics and main modes of the enterprise technical standards alliance for the “Belt and Road” initiative, and uses proceduralised grounded theory coding analysis technology to analyze the “Belt and Road” alliance project news materials released by portal sites such as China's Belt and Road Network. The results of the study suggest that the main modes of the enterprise technical standards alliance for the “Belt and Road” initiative include the standard co-consultation application mode, the standard co-construction R&D mode, the standard shared complementary mode, and the standard iterative upgrade mode. The four modes present different characteristics in terms of participation subjects, cooperation methods, and forms of value realization. The standard co-consultation application mode aims at the promotion and diffusion of standards, with emphasis on “co-consultation” and “application”. The standard co-construction R&D mode aims at new standards R&D, including two paths of joint R&D and co-construction of R&D institutions. The standard shared complementary mode is based on the use of technology and standards, focusing on “shared” and “complementary”. And the standard iterative upgrade mode aims at standard localization and iterative upgrade, which includes two main forms of implementation: standard cooperation to build parks and extended standard cooperation. Finally, the cooperation mechanism and operation mode of the main mode of the enterprise technical standards alliance for the “Belt and Road” initiative are further discussed.

Key words: "Belt and Road", proceduralised grounded theory, technical standards alliance, value realization
