We found that dynamic capabilities – specifically seizing capabilities – have an impact on supply markets and that procurement participation in innovation is strengthened by seizing and transforming capabilities. We also show that sensing capabilities are antecedents of seizing and transforming capabilities, implying that public procurement needs to have these capabilities in order to innovate and develop the supply market.

The study also distinguishes competence development as direct or indirect, depending on whether the focus is on internalizing new competences or collaborating to enable future use of competences across the network.

The embeddedness processes, presumably, will be different for suppliers and buyers. Extant embeddedness theory, however, does not differentiate the processes between the two parties. Rather, the prevalent approach to firm-level embeddedness simply borrows or elevates individual-level theorization. Consequently, the literature falls short in explaining how suppliers, as subordinate parties, are embedded in generally status-asymmetric relations. To fill the theoretical gap, this study theorizes <em>supplier embeddedness</em> (SE)—i.e., how a supplier's ways of strategizing, deciding and behaving are constrained by its (significant) buyer, and the extent to which such pattern varies across suppliers. Given the exploratory nature and theory elaboration purpose of our inquiry, we use a case-based research method. Specifically, we conducted case studies of eight suppliers of a single automaker (Automo) and employed abductive (merging inductive and deductive) reasoning, as particularly suited for theory elaboration. Our analysis of qualitative data revealed noticeable variances in suppliers' SE with respect to Automo, while unearthing context-specific mechanisms and their interactive properties that jointly characterize SE, as well as its antecedent/contingent conditions that define the boundaries of SE. Additionally, we made some unorthodox observations on inter-firm reciprocity and brokerage in our context. These findings are summarized in the form of propositions for future research.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"31 3","pages":"Article 100994"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144253570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, successful implementation of PBC is vital to realise these advantages. This case study explores the contextual and structural factors influencing the implementation of PBC as a procurement strategy, drawing on implementation and strategic fit theory. The findings reveal seven critical factors influencing PBC implementation: strategic priorities, flexibility of legal requirements, the innovativeness of organisational culture, formalisation and centralisation of organisational structure, availability of organisational resources, and stakeholder communication. Moreover, the findings demonstrate that these factors are adaptable, with their case-specific composition determining which conceptual components of the PBC strategy are implemented.

We combined exploratory interviews and an in-depth case study to explore strategic IORs in the energy industry. We found that managers actively coordinate IORs to address disruptions using specific contractual and relational coordination activities depending on the coordination requirement of the disruption phase. Relational coordination is used in the detect phase due to relationship history. However, in the subsequent respond and recover phases, managers choose relational coordination if the supplier signals willingness to cooperate, or contractual coordination if the supplier signals unwillingness. We contribute to the disruption management and governance mechanisms literature by adding to nascent knowledge on managing the respond and recover phases of disruptions via contractual and relational coordination under situational factors (i.e., operational disruptions), and we establish distinct coordination trajectories for strategic IORs experiencing disruptions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"31 3","pages":"Article 100996"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144253573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this study aims to advance our understanding of how network and performance indicators can mutually enhance each other when analysing SC resilience as both a system property (quality) and an outcome (quantity). The unique contribution of our study is a combined use of network science and discrete-event simulation allowing for mixed-method grounded integration of static and dynamic views of supply chain resilience. Using node degrees as network indicators and on-time delivery, fulfilment rate, and time-to-recovery as performance indicators, we examine reactions of these indicators to a disruption to the sourcing strategies of three different flexibility degrees. We observe that network science methods can be used to identify disruption existence while simulation methods allow quantifying performance impact. We show how and when the combined application of network and performance indicators can inform decision-makers about SC resilience, and propose a generalised guideline for a practical implementation of the developed approach. Our main conclusion is that SC resilience-assessment models can be mutually enhanced by including network characteristics and process dynamics through a combination of network analysis and simulation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":"31 3","pages":"Article 101014"},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144253572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
