Abstract

Product-market planning remains an important activity but paradoxically firms take considerable steps to guard against the rigidity and inflexibility that can become apparent from doing so. We propose a conceptual model of product-market planning capability which is based on knowledge and contingency perspectives. We test this with both primary and secondary data generated from UK-based high-technology firms. Using structural equation modeling, we find that market information processing activities have differential effects on product-market planning capability; this capability is significantly and positively related to performance and this strengthens as competitive intensity and technological turbulence increase; differentiation strategies are shown to positively moderate the relationship but there are negative implications for those with cost leader and focus strategies.
