Abstract

Supply chains have increasingly become an opportunity for firms to access complementary competencies and learn from other firms. To better understand the role of IT-enabled learning strategies in affecting the supply chain firms’ learning outcome, we use a computational simulation approach to model the IT tools used for intra- and inter- organizational learning. This research-in-progress builds on March’s (1991) organizational learning model and extends it to a supply chain context. The study will lay a foundation for theory building in IT-enabled interorganizational learning and knowledge management.
