English abstract:
With the emergence of new organizational forms and environmental dynamism, research on organisational capabilities and their value creation has become an important focus among scholars. The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of organisational capabilities (OC), specifically dynamic capabilities (DC) and coordinative capabilities (CC) for the strategic performance of architectural companies. Based on the resource-based-view (RBW) we hypothesize that DC and CC, which are embedded in the organization itself and developed through projects and individual capabilities, influence the strategic performance of architects and thus lead to competitive advantage and higher firm performance of architectural firms. The model is empirically evaluated by using data from architectural companies in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. We test the hypotheses by applying a stepwise regression analysis.
