摘要

本文分析了企业如何在各种条件下通过项目实现创新战略。以往的研究发现了一系列与项目相关的手段,如探索性项目、项目系列和双向计划,企业可通过这些手段实现其长期创新目标。这些方法虽然功能强大,但主要以重点企业为中心,涉及产品、平台和业务模式层面,而且往往在很大程度上依赖于企业的资源和协调努力。然而,系统转型的特点是对组织和产业边界进行复杂且不可预见的重新定义,这就需要调动多方资源,促使企业参与到有时间限制的实验网络中。本文在项目研究中引入了这一概念,并将其与现有的基于项目的关键创新概念并列,仔细研究了这些概念的定义、预期创新范围、关注点和协调原则。因此,这篇文章提请人们注意在面临系统转型时组织间因素的重要性,并为正在出现的关于项目研究、创新管理和社会技术转型之间联系的讨论做出了贡献。

Experimental Networks: A Missing Link in Facilitating Systemic Transitions Through Projects?
This article analyzes how firms can enable their innovation strategies through projects under various conditions. Previous research has identified an array of project-related means, such as explorative projects, project lineages, and ambidextrous programs, by which firms aim to realize their long-term innovation goals. These approaches, although powerful, are primarily focal firm-centered; address product-, platform-, and business-model levels; and tend to draw heavily on the firm’s resources and coordination efforts. However, systemic transitions are characterized by complex and unforeseen redefinitions of organizational and industrial boundaries, which require mobilization of resources by multiple actors, prompting firms to engage in time-limited experimental networks. This article introduces this concept to project studies and juxtaposes it with the key extant project-based concepts for enabling innovation by scrutinizing their definitions, intended scope of innovation, locus of attention, and coordination principles. Consequently, it draws attention to the importance of interorganizational aspects when facing a systemic transition and contributes to an emerging debate on the linkages among project studies, innovation management, and sociotechnical transitions.

期刊介绍: Project Management Journal (PMJ) is the academic and research journal of the Project Management Institute and features state-of-the-art research, techniques, theories, and applications in project management. Projects represent a growing population of human activity in large, small, private, and public organizations. Projects are used to execute and sustain today's organizational activities. They play a fundamental role as the engine of tomorrow's innovation, value creation, and strategic change. However, projects often fail to deliver their promise. PMJ addresses these multiple challenges and opportunities by encouraging the development and application of novel theories, concepts, frameworks, research methods, and designs. PMJ embraces contributions both from within and beyond project management to augment and transform theory and practice.
