Technological Diversity and Industrial Networks: An Analysis of the Modus Operandi of Co-operative Arrangements
نویسنده
چکیده
The article discusses the institutional diversity of industrial networks, associating this diversity with the ‘complexity’ of the technological environment in which these networks are inserted. The analysis is organized in three stages. The first involves the definition of an objective criteria to map the institutional diversity of industrial networks, specifically associated with the ‘complexity’ of the technological environment in which they are inserted. The second involves the characterisation of ‘stylised models’ of industrial networks with basis in the criteria previously defined. Specifically, four kind of industrial networks are identified: traditional sub-contracting networks, modular assembly networks, complex products networks and technology-based networks. The third stage involves a characterisation of network modus operandi in ‘stylised models’ of structures, with basis in an analytical framework that correlates the impacts of interfirm co-operation to three elements: (i) the increase of technical-productive efficiency; (ii) the strengthening of inter-organisational co-ordination to face environmental uncertainty; (iii) the increase of dynamic efficiency through the generation of technological innovations.
