An Empirical Typology of Mature Industrial-Product Environments
基于PIMS数据库，通过聚类分析将成熟工业产品环境分为八种类型，并检验其可靠性，旨在为业务层战略提供权变方法。
This paper pursues the goal of parsimony by presenting a typology of mature industrial-product environments, derived from the PIMS data base. Cluster analysis yields eight environmental types that are discussed and tested for reliability in a holdout sample. The ultimate goal is to develop a contingency approach to business-level strategy.
