Der Kollaboration eine Plattform bieten: Ein Bezugsrahmen für den Aufbau und die Steuerung digitaler Plattform­-Ökosysteme

2024 , Christoph Lechner , Alexander Göritz

Innerhalb und zwischen Industrien entstehen in den letzten Jahren zunehmend digitale Plattformen und Ökosysteme. Diese kollaborativen Organisationsformen wollen ein innovatives Nutzenversprechen gegenüber Kund*innen erbringen und bündeln dazu Ressourcen und Fähigkeiten ihrer Mitglieder. Meist wird es dadurch möglich, integrierte Lösungen anzubieten, die vorher nicht bestanden. Doch wie gelingt dies? Wie baut man solche Organisationsformen auf? Wie steuert man sie? Basierend auf aktuellen Erkenntnissen in Wissenschaft und Praxis wollen wir mit Hilfe eines Bezugsrahmen die dabei relevanten Themen beleuchten.

Resolving the paradox of interdependency and strategic renewal in activity systems

2015-04 , Albert, Daniel , Kreutzer, Markus , Lechner, Christoph

We examine an intriguing paradox regarding whether interdependencies in an organization's activity system enable or hinder strategic renewal, i.e., the incremental process through which an organization continuously adapts to the environment and explores opportunities to invoke change in its activity choices and outputs. One research stream, the "inertial view", argues that the pervasiveness of interdependencies among activities increases inertia, which inhibits strategic renewal. Another research stream, the "adaptive view", argues that the pervasiveness of interdependencies among activities allows for a rich flow of resources and information, which enables strategic renewal. In this paper, we argue that both views provide important insights but arrive at conflicting conclusions because they focus on different dimensions of interdependency. To resolve this paradox, we distinguish between an activity system's interdependency patterns and interdependency rules. We propose that the dimensions of the interdependency pattern set the context in which the dimensions of the interdependency rules guide the exchange of resources and information among interdependent activities. Integrating these two components of an activity system's interdependency design leads to a "dual understanding" of interdependency as both pattern and rule and helps explain how the inertial forces of interdependency patterns may be overcome by putting appropriate interdependency rules in place.
