Bridging Gaps in Organizational Knowledge - The Role of IT-Enabled Organizational Learning in Supply Chain Partnerships

Supply chains have increasingly become an opportunity for firms to access complementary competencies and learn from other firms. To better understand the role of IT-enabled learning strategies in affecting the supply chain firms’ learning outcome, we use a computational simulation approach to model the IT tools used for intraand interorganizational learning. This research-in-progress builds on March’s (1991) organizational learning model and extends it to a supply chain context. The study will lay a foundation for theory building in IT-enabled interorganizational learning and knowledge management.
