DUAL PERSPECTIVES ON MULTI-CONTEXTUALITY OF DATA IN DIGITAL PLATFORM ESTABLISHMENT
- 2020

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Innovation in ecosystems becomes increasingly attractive for incumbents as the technical complexity increases and complementarities play an increasingly important role for global competition. Digital platforms are becoming one of the primary means to that end, where incumbents can gain scale effects and reap the benefits of the creative crowd while maintaining ownership of the core product. But a lion’s share of these platforms hinges on the accessibility of data, and the view of the value and ownership of this data differs among actors in the system. This paper accounts for a case study of two type actors in an innovation ecosystem; the keystone firm and the third-party service provider. From interviews with representatives of these actors, we formulate a tentative description of their perspective on the sharing of data in the ecosystem. We find that these perspectives differ in terms of data contextuality and customer value. We argue that these differing perspectives are at the crux of establishing innovation capabilities in ecosystems based on digital platforms.

This paper accounts for a case study of two type actors in an innovation ecosystem: the core actor (OEM) and the peripheral actor (third party service provider). From interviews with representatives of these actors, we find that their perspectives on the data and its usefulness outside its intended context differ. We label the perspectives purposive and multi-contextual; we formulate their descriptions and outline managerial implications. We argue that these differing perspectives are at the crux of establishing innovation capabilities in ecosystems based on digital platforms.

Agile Management Practices for Solutions Development: Managerial Challenges in an Interorganizational Context
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of Spring Servitization Conference. - 978 1 85449 499 3
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose: Solutions development among several actors gives rise to a tension between stability, that is, the need to standardise and synchronise development activities, and agility, meaning the need to respond and adapt to a changing environment, which is represented, for example, in agile management practices. This study focuses on agile solutions development in an interorganisational context to investigate and characterise this agility-stability tension. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study bases its insights on findings derived from two focus groups and interviews with managers and specialists within the area of study. Findings: The findings show strong challenges deriving from the agility-stability tension. These can be organised in a typology of artefacts, roles, and processes. Originality/Value: The results of this study contribute to the servitization literature on co-creation, solutions development, and agile management practices, by providing a novel understanding of the challenges arising in interorganisational solutions development through the identification and characterisation of the agility-stability tension.

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Digitala plattformar fortsätter att vara ett centralt strategiskt verktyg för många företag, inte minst inom bilindustrin. Men lejonparten av dessa plattformar är helt beroende av tillgång på olika typer av data, och synen på denna data och dess värde skiljer sig mellan de olika aktörerna i innovationssystemet, vilket försvårar för innovation.

The Tension Between Internal Product Platforms And Inter-organizational Agility
- 2023
-
Ingår i: 24th CINet Conference. ; , s. 21-21
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Firms often establish internal product platforms to reap economies of scale and scope, and to build competitive advantage over time. The aim is to create a “stable center” on which customer adaptations and addons can be built. The same firms simultaneously strive to improve their flexibility in terms of responsiveness to change through agile practice, as adhering to external or internal change requests is an likewise and increasingly important competitive advantage. This research note is inspired by the possible tension between the two practices and aims to examine the consequences of internal product platform strategy for agile practice in an inter-organizational context. Based on interviews with innovation managers and software developers at two collaborating automotive suppliers, we suggest that there is an intricate tension between the two practices per their common strive for a balance between stability and flexibility. We also suggest that the establishment of product platforms among several actors affect their joint possibilities to respond to changes, because of the complex nested dependencies between the platforms. Ultimately, we argue that more research is needed to understand how product platform strategy and agile practices combine.

Tactical capabilities in agile NPD projects : insights from an autonomous car project in Sweden
- 2024
-

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Research on project management and new product development (NPD) identifies both strategy and tactics as important for success. Whilst there is a lot of attention on strategy, few studies address the role of tactics in NPD projects. In the pursuit for increasing organisational abilities to manage uncertainty, agile is increasingly getting traction in large firms. Both tactical activities and agile methodology deal with adapting to emergent challenges and handling uncertainty in projects. This motivated this study of how an agile transformation initiative influences tactical activities within NPD projects. The paper is based on a longitudinal case study of Volvo Car Group's autonomous car project. The case firm's transformation from waterfall to agile method provided the possibility to understand how tactical activities differ between the two methods. By using observations from the case, we argue that agile development method facilitates the use of tactics in NPD projects. © 2024 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.. All rights reserved.
