根据科恩和莱文塔尔的概念，以前的研究已经将吸收能力概念化为一种组织现象，主要是通过定量方法。与此相反，本研究发展了一个网络吸收能力的概念框架。基于纵向深入的案例研究XRA，一个跨组织的网络，从事开发创新的X射线分析技术，我们添加到文献如下：首先，我们介绍NACAP，冒险超越组织或二元作为一个单元的分析。其次，我们采用实践的角度来说明XRA网络如何通过其成员，能够识别，获取，利用和传播知识，即通过聚集，路线图，分配和投影。第三，我们阐述了考虑NACAP的较低和较高“边界水平”的价值，即组织（即，较低级别）和组织领域（即，上一级）作为两个对NACAP有贡献的水平。
In line with Cohen and Levinthal’s conception, previous research has conceptualised absorptive capacity as an organisational phenomenon, predominantly by means of quantitative methods. In contrast, this research develops a conceptual framework of network absorptive capacity (NACAP). Based upon a longitudinal in-depth case study of XRA, an interorganisational network that engages in developing innovative X-ray-analytics technologies, we add to the literature as follows: first, we introduce NACAP, venturing beyond the organisation or dyad as a unit of analysis. Second, we adopt a practice perspective in order to illustrate how the XRA network, by means of its members, is able to identify, acquire, utilise and disseminate knowledge, namely by congregating, roadmapping, assigning and projecting. Third, we elucidate the value considering the lower and upper ‘boundary levels’ of NACAP, that is the organisation (i.e., lower level) and the organisational field (i.e., the upper level) as levels both contributing to NACAP.
