Abstract:
|
The paper analyses the organization of the new product development process at FIAT from a
resource-based perspective. The focus is on organizational resources for integrating dispersed
specialist knowledge required in the development of complex products. The analysis shows
how the application of a resource-based perspective is able to uncover negative long-term
effects of outsourcing on the knowledge base (hollowing out), despite beneficial short-term
effects on cost. |
