Dynamic Capabilities Through Autonomous Cooperation in International Supply Networks?

Organisational Flexibility and Competitiveness

Abstract

Logistics systems—understood as Complex Adaptive Logistics Systems—face the risk of dominant logics, path dependencies and resulting lock-in situations on both the level of the involved companies as well as the level of entire supply networks. The concept of dynamic capabilities is the current pre-dominant research paradigm for the explanation of organisational success and the ability to avoid such lock-ins, respectively to cope with them. Hence, the question arises, how the evolvement of dynamic capabilities in CALS can be fostered. Therefore, the paper discusses contributions and limitations resulting from the organisational principle of autonomous cooperation and its technological realisations (through e.g. RFID tags or sensor networks) for developing dynamic capabilities understood as the ability to replicate and reconfigure organisational resources.
