| Abstract: | This research considers the diffusion of computer aided production management (CAPM) technology in the UK manufacturing sector focusing on the role of interorganizational networks in the diffusion process. Using 3 case companies, decisions regarding adoption, design and subsequent implementation, are explored in order to establish the influence of interorganizational networks on the diffusion and subsequent appropriation of CAPM technologies. However, the knowledge diffused through these networks was shaped by technology suppliers who were promoting similar ideas about best practice. |
