公司越来越多地将与其他公司的关系视为竞争优势的来源。关系构成了企业可以学习和建立吸收能力的环境。本研究提供了一个深入的解释的关键机制，交织不同的学习过程，导致创新的关系背景下。这些机制的理论阐述之前，他们的实证研究中的四个客户-供应商的二元关系，集中在两个焦点customerorganization.The文章的贡献，讨论如何的机制作用和相互作用，以创造吸收能力的焦点公司跨关系。我们发现，结构性的学习机制，而必要的是不足以解释在不同的学习环境中的吸收能力的存在变化。文化、心理和政策学习机制是一种补充。从实证分析中，我们得出的命题，以指导进一步研究吸收能力的关系背景下创建。
Companies increasingly regard relationships with other companies as a source of competitive advantage. Relationships constitute a context in which the firm may learn and build absorptive capacity. This study provides an in-depth explanation of the key mechanisms that interlace the different learning processes leading to innovations in a relational context. A theoretical elaboration of these mechanisms precedes their empirical study within four customer-supplier dyads, centred on two focal customer organizations.The article contributes by discussing how the mechanisms act and interact to create absorptive capacity for a focal firm across relationships. We find that structural learning mechanisms, while necessary are not sufficient to explain variation in the presence of absorptive capacity across different learning contexts. Cultural, psychological and policy learning mechanisms complement the picture. From the empirical analysis we derive propositions to guide further research into the creation of absorptive capacity in a relational context.
