Resumo: | Purpose – The purpose of this study was to understand the intellectual structure of studies on absorptive capacity in project managementTheoretical framework – The ability to perceive external knowledge, assimilate it, and apply it for commercial purposes is defined as absorbing capacity. This capacity provides organizations with competitive advantages. Also, studies have pointed out projects as a powerful weapon to create organizational value. However, little is known about absorptive capacity in project management and it is in this gap that this work is inserted.Design/methodology/approach – For this purpose, a systematic literature review of articles published on absorptive capacity in the International Journal of Project Management (IJPM), and Project Management Journal (PMJ), and International Journal of Managing Projects in Business was conducted.Findings – The main findings noted the existence of two lines of research in project management that address the construction of absorptive capacity. The first line of research presents articles that deal with the transfer of knowledge between projects and organizations. Articles in this line present that knowledge transfer depends on the organization that will receive the project as well as presents the importance of different mechanisms of social integration in this process. In the other line, absorptive capacity and performance in projects, the different roles of the absorptive capacity realized and potential in the performance of the projects were identified. Originality/value – The article contributed to the project management literature when it identified the lines of research in which absorptive capacity is inserted in the area and proposed a research agenda. |

Esta capacidade proporciona as organizações vantagens competitivas. Além disso, estudos tem apontado projetos como uma arma poderosa para criar valor organizacional. No entanto, pouco se conhece sobre capacidade absortiva em gestão de projetos e, é nesta lacuna que este trabalho se inseri.Resultados: Os principais achados apontam a existência de duas linhas de pesquisas em gerenciamento de projetos que abordam o constructo de capacidade absortiva. A primeira linha de pesquisas apresenta artigos que versam sobre a transferência de conhecimento entre projetos e projetos e organizações. Artigos nesta linha apresentam que transferência de conhecimento depende, principalmente, da organização que receberá o projeto, bem como destacou a importância dos diferentes mecanismos de integrações sociais neste processo. Na segunda linha, capacidade absortiva e performance em projetos, identificou-se os diferentes papeis da capacidade absortiva realizada e potencial no desempenho dos projetos.Contribuições teóricas/metodológicas: O artigo contribuiu com a literatura de gerenciamento de projetos quando identificou as linhas de pesquisa em que a capacidade absortiva está inserida na área e propôs uma agenda de pesquisa.Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies2020-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articleapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/article/view/54510.24023/FutureJournal/2175-5825/2020.v12i3.545Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies; Vol. 12 No. 3 (2020): September - December; 438-457Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies [FSRJ]; v. 12 n. 3 (2020): September - December; 438-4572175-5825reponame:Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategiesinstname:Fundação Instituto de Administração (FIA)instacron:FIAporhttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/article/view/545/470Copyright (c) 2020 Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategiesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTeixeira, RodrigoScafuto, Isabel Cristina2021-02-16T20:34:42Zoai:ojs.future.emnuvens.com.br:article/545Revistahttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/oai2175-58252175-5825opendoar:2021-02-16T20:34:42Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies - Fundação Instituto de Administração (FIA)false |
