中国企业LPSS能力与制度的双维共变——以中粮集团为例

The Co-evolution of Chinese Companies’ LPSS Capability Recursive Line with Institutional Transition Process——A Case Study of COFCO

新制度学派展开了制度环境与组织结构关系研究的新篇章,将"同形"与"脱耦"作为制度环境对组织结构塑形的两种主要方式。沿袭这一思路,结合中国企业的管理实践,本文创新性地将制度演化与企业能力模块化的逻辑相联系,研究并尝试性地提出了企业能力与制度之间的双维共变初始模型;采取单案例研究法,通过对竞争性行业大型国有企业中粮集团相关经验资料的搜集、编码与提炼,不断对初始模型进行修正匹配,最终发现:中国本土企业的能力演进呈"混合型特点",即在企业发展的不同阶段,企业能力重叠交替地表现出许可获取(Licence)、优质产品(Product)、顾客导向(Service)和系统创新(System)四个主要特点,但从时序上总体来说,又可概括为一条"许可获取—优质产品—顾客导向—系统创新"的LPSS能力演进曲线,融入边际成本和收益视角,该LPSS能力曲线呈螺旋式递归态势,且与制度环境发生双维共变。

This paper investigates one of China＇s large-sized state-owned companies（COFCO） in competitive industry with the combination of the organization capability theory and the neo-institutional view, some new concepts involved to be illustrated in depth are organizational isomorphism and decoupling, etc. Enlightened by China＇s real business practices, we have made the following findings and conclusions： （1）Ahhough Chinese companies＇ capabilities bear a ＂mixed feature＂, according to different emphasis in different period, generally speaking, they still can be divided into four categories, which can be named respectively as licence, product, service and system. （2）Based on a whole and historical view, a ＂licence-product-service-system＂ capability recursive curve could be drawn. （3）There is a co-evolution trend and mechanism between Chinese companies＇ capability recursion and the whole institutional environment.
