摘要

设计/方法/途径采用比较案例研究设计,对同一组织内两家类似制造工厂的长期项目进行了四项案例研究。研究结果我们发现,组织首先在变革工作中使用结构性和顺序性灵活性,在此期间会开发出新的流程知识。当结构性和顺序性灵活性不可行时,变革推动者会利用这些已开发的知识来支持情境灵活性。这项研究的局限性之一是,为了控制差异,它只关注了一个组织内的两家工厂。虽然从结构和时间上解耦变革工作有助于区分新技术变革,但这些工作也存在局限性。本文有助于解释组织在快节奏的制造业环境中实施长期技术变革时,如何以及何时使用不同类型的灵活性来解决时间冲突。

Utilizing organizational ambidexterity to implement long-term technical change in fast-paced manufacturing settings

Purpose

In this paper, we focus on how and when organizations adopt different types of ambidexterity to facilitate projects that operate with fundamentally different time scales compared with the dominant functions of the organization.

Design/methodology/approach

Using a comparative case study design, four case studies were conducted of long-term projects in two similar manufacturing plants within the same organization.

Findings

We found organizations first use structural and sequential ambidexterity in change efforts, during which new process knowledge is developed. When structural and sequential ambidexterity are not viable, change agents use this developed knowledge to support contextual ambidexterity. This contextual ambidexterity allows change agents to move between distinct time conceptions of event time and clock time.

Research limitations/implications

One of the limitations of this study was that it only focused on two plants within one organization in order to control for variation. Future studies should look at a wider range of companies, technologies and industries.

Practical implications

While structurally and temporally decoupling change efforts help with differentiation of new technological change, there are limitations with these efforts. It is important to build an organization’s contextual ambidexterity as well as organizational supports to facilitate switching between clock time and event time.

Originality/value

This paper helps explain how and when organizations use different types of ambidexterity in resolving temporal conflicts when implementing longer-term technological change in fast-paced manufacturing settings.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management (JMTM) aspires to be the premier destination for impactful manufacturing-related research. JMTM provides comprehensive international coverage of topics pertaining to the management of manufacturing technology, focusing on bridging theoretical advancements with practical applications to enhance manufacturing practices. JMTM seeks articles grounded in empirical evidence, such as surveys, case studies, and action research, to ensure relevance and applicability. All submissions should include a thorough literature review to contextualize the study within the field and clearly demonstrate how the research contributes significantly and originally by comparing and contrasting its findings with existing knowledge. Articles should directly address management of manufacturing technology and offer insights with broad applicability.
