Abstract

What is the influence of organizational competencies and social ties on the competitiveness of companies operating in a business network? This is the central question of the CAC-Redes (Fields and Weapons of Competition Model applied to business networks), developed by Contador, which integrates into a coherent whole three perspectives: Industry-Based Vision, RBV and Relational View simultaneously considering the company's competitive position, its competencies and its social ties. The design of the CAC-Redes is presented here unpublished. This study adopted the hypothetic-deductive method proposed by Popper to corroborate the statistical hypotheses coming from CAC-Redes. The main contribution are two, which justify its importance: to fill a theoretical gap, since thereare few studies relating organizational competence and social ties with competitive advantage of the companies, and to subsidize the development and future validation of CAC-Redes.
