Core Competence Evaluation of Modern Service Industry Cluster

Service industry cluster has played an important role in economic system of an area. Core competence evaluation of modern service industry cluster has been a very significant theoretical and practical problem of the research on industry cluster. The goal of the investigation is to assess core competence of modern service industry cluster accurately and visually. The primary factors of core competence of modern service industry cluster are analyzed first. Radar chat which is mapping of evaluation factor is used as a diagrammatic representation to assess core competence of modern service industry cluster. In order to get the priority of evaluation factor, Analytic Hierarchy Process is adopted and the hierarchy of core competence of modern service industry cluster is developed. Then the circle of radar chart is marked off in accordance with the priority above. Further more characteristic elements of radar chart are used to evaluate core competence of modern service industry cluster quantificationally. The examples demonstrate that use radar chart to assess core competence of modern service industry cluster is feasible. It is not only intuitionistic and visual, but also can get quantitative value of core competence of modern service industry cluster.
