Abstract
The research aims to clarify the influence exerted by strategic alliances and its dimensions represented by (value chain partnership, licensing arrangement, joint projects, mutual service union) on strategic shocks and its dimensions represented by (the industrial environment factor (exchange rate fluctuation), the institutional environmental factor (Soft budget constraints are offset by hard one), the company's capabilities (low versus high leverage) and the relationship between them, and the researched field was the contracting companies operating in the city of Mosul (listed within the Iraqi Contractors Union/Ninawa branch), which were chosen to conduct the applied aspect of the research, and the electronic questionnaire was distributed to The researched field was conducted via the WhatsApp application for contractors working in the city of Mosul, and (98) responses were obtained via the electronic link prepared for this purpose. The research community consisted of general managers of contracting companies. The descriptive analytical approach was adopted in the research, and statistical software (spss) was employed. v.27) for statistical analysis of the collected data, and the most prominent results were the presence of an inverse relationship between both strategic alliances and strategic shocks, and there is also a significant effect between strategic alliances on strategic shocks.
Abstract
The research problem lies in the slow and low levels of strategic response in contracting companies in Baghdad Governorate. The research aims to examine the impact of strategic engineering on the strategic response processes of employees in these companies. To achieve this, the dimensions of strategic engineering were utilized, namely: organizational structure engineering, digital leadership, strategic modeling and simulation, and strategic alignment. The dimensions of strategic response processes were also considered, namely: resource liquidity, business process maturity, business responsiveness to the environment, and business proactivity to the environment. The researcher adopted a descriptive-analytical approach to data analysis, employing a simple random sampling method. The research population consisted of 240 employees from a group of contracting companies in Baghdad Governorate, of whom 203 were selected as the research sample. The researcher used a questionnaire as the primary data collection tool. Statistical software, specifically SMART PLS 4 and SPSS version 27, was used to analyze the primary data. Descriptive and inferential statistical methods were employed, including validity and reliability testing, confirmatory factor analysis, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, relative importance, simple and multiple linear regression, structural equation modeling, and others, to test the main and sub-hypotheses. The research yielded several findings, demonstrating that strategic engineering is not merely reactive but also enhances companies' ability to proactively respond by anticipating future challenges and designing preventative strategies that ensure business continuity in uncertain circumstances.
