Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to explore how digital capability incompatibility affects knowledge cooperation performance through the mediating effect of digital resilient agility and the moderating effect of project complexity in project network organizations (PNOs).

Design/methodology/approach

A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted with 207 middle and senior managers in PNOs. Based on validated questionnaire items and construct definitions, a dynamic panel regression was performed using 292 project-focused firms’ annual reports.

Findings

The results show that digital capability incompatibility facilitates knowledge cooperation performance by enhancing digital resilient agility in PNOs. Increased project complexity strengthens this relationship, promoting better knowledge cooperation performance.

Practical implications

Managers can use partner firms’ diverse digital knowledge to quickly develop technologies and tackle digital transformation challenges, thereby improving knowledge cooperation. They can also evaluate the project environment to manage digitally-supported cooperation effectively.

Originality/value

This research reveals how firms in PNOs transform digital capability incompatibility into knowledge cooperation performance through digital transformation efforts. This research extends the boundary of this relationship to project-level factors and proposes digital resilient agility as a digital transformation effort for knowledge cooperation in PNOs than previous research.

数字弹性敏捷性的作用：数字能力的不兼容性如何影响项目网络组织的知识合作绩效

目的本文旨在探讨在项目网络组织（PNOs）中，数字能力不兼容性如何通过数字弹性敏捷性的中介效应和项目复杂性的调节效应影响知识合作绩效。结果表明，数字能力的不兼容性通过提高 PNOs 的数字弹性敏捷性来促进知识合作绩效。实际意义管理者可以利用合作伙伴企业的各种数字化知识，快速开发技术，应对数字化转型挑战，从而提高知识合作绩效。原创性/价值这项研究揭示了虚拟运营商中的企业如何通过数字化转型努力将数字化能力的不兼容性转化为知识合作绩效。与之前的研究相比，本研究将这种关系的边界扩展到了项目层面的因素，并提出了数字弹性敏捷性作为虚拟运营商知识合作的数字化转型努力。
