3 technology competence customer competence linkage competence 3 SCM Supply Chain Management Product Architecture and Emerging Market Strategy: Comparative Studies of Japanese and Korean Firms YoungWon PARK We focus on global strategy of Japanese and Korean global firms in emerging markets including BRICs, using three competences and product architecture framework. Successful Japanese global firms in these markets do not merely implement their domestic strategies, but also adopt a set of business strategies that effectively sense the target market needs and apply their technology competence to supply component parts through local suppliers in the target market regions. Japanese global firms thus make full use of open-integral architecture strategy utilizing linkage competence that combines both technology competence and customer competence in penetrating the emerging markets. In contrast, Korean global firms focus on open-modular products and implement brand differentiation in response to rapidly changing product life cycle (PLC) of their products. These differentiation strategies include design differentiation, functional differentiation by diverse markets, timely deployment of strategic products, and integration of production and marketing through supply chain management. : Product architecture, Emerging market strategy, Competence, Open-integral architecture strategy 17
