In the aerospace industry competitive advantage is searched through product
innovation. This paper sets out to explore the effects that relationship
development in the commercial aerospace supply chains have on innovation and
competitive advantage. A perspective of supply chains as complex activity
networks is used for data analysis based on in-depth interviews in a global
setting. Applying these concepts of supply chains as the interaction of multiple
work activities assists in comprehending the forces of change. The processes of
change are characterized by expansive learning processes of creating instruments
for initializing, developing and sustaining these relationships. These processes
take place in a terrain of complex power exercises. The long-term effects are
totally dependent on nurturing the relationships. The findings may be useful to
practitioners in understanding how implementation of successful supply chain
changes may come about. It promotes risk-sharing partnerships as instruments for
innovation. The paper provides evidence of changing relationships in commercial
aerospace supply chains. |
