Abstract

The dynamic capabilities view is frequently applied in strategic management as a framework for understanding competitive advantage. The dynamic capabilities view is less prevalent elsewhere, and there is a dearth of research on the extent and topical focus of the dynamic capabilities view in supply chain and operations management. We address this gap with a review and content analysis of articles published between 2000 and 2015 in two highly respected journals: Journal of Operations Management and Management Science. We identify fifteen dynamic capabilities view-focused papers and analyze the identified articles in terms of publication frequency, publication by journal, industry focus, and primary research method. We then identify and classify the topics analyzed in those papers through the lens of the dynamic capabilities view. Based on that analysis, we conclude that dynamic capabilities view-based research is gaining traction in supply chain and operations management, and we propose an agenda for future research.
