Abstract

This paper examines the impact of industrial policy on the development of tendering intermediary services in China. Firstly, this paper attempts to establish a conceptual model of the impact from industrial policy on the development ability of tendering intermediary services, and puts forward 16 research hypotheses. In order to verify the theoretical hypotheses, an empirical analysis is conducted on the China’s tendering intermediary services with questionnaire data by making use of structural equation model. The results indicate that there are some positive relationships between industrial policy and the development ability of tendering intermediary services. Industrial structure policy, industrial organization policy, industrial technology policy and guarantee implementation policy all have some significant positive impacts on the development ability of tendering intermediary services. The conclusion is that industrial policy can promote the development ability of tendering intermediary services. Therefore, it is significant to make full use of industrial policy to promote the development of tendering agency service industry in China.
