| Abstract: |
Digitalization in the supply chain involves important transformations in the
relationships between supply chain partners. Studies investigating these
transformations underline the need to create and share new knowledge processes
in order to achieve successful digital projects that improve integration and
collaboration in the supply chain. This article proposes to make a parallel
between the stages of the SECI model concerning knowledge conversion and the
different phases of a Supply Chain 4.0 project. By using a longitudinal case
study, the authors fill the gap on the dynamics of knowledge transformation in
supply chain digital projects. Based on a supplier portal project, the case
study presented helps to understand how to ensure that the different partners
will get fully involved in the digital project. It provides five managerial
recommendations for companies that wish to commit to supplier development and
knowledge sharing through digital projects. |
