LOPEZ-CRUZ, Orlando. An agent-based model to simulate absorption capacity in organizations. RISTI [online]. 2018, n.26, pp.122-139. ISSN 1646-9895. https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.26.122-139.
This paper introduces a reconceptualization of the ‘absorptive capacity' (ACAP) construct in organizations pursuing to implement a computer program to assist the simulation the results of acquisition, assimilation and harnessing of knowledge available in the environment of the organization, with the aim of obtaining competitive advantage and produce innovation in organizations. In contrast to other researches focusing in refining the ACAP construct, this research emphasizes on a computer simulation to assist the design an actual ACAP in organizations. This paper suggests a lack of design of the ACAP conceptual models inferred from the reviewed literature and a new implementable design of the ACAP construct is proposed. This new design sheds light upon an actual implementation of the ACAP construct able to support effective knowledge absorption at organizations
