Supplier development at Honda, Nissan and Toyota: comparative case studies of organizational capability enhancement
Abstract
What factors facilitate and constrain the sustained development and replication of organizational capabilities of suppliers? This question is addressed in a comparison of historical case studies of Toyota, Nissan and Honda in Japan. First, as expected, replication difficulty is overcome by enabling companies to share the practice, rather than the representation, of tacit knowledge. Second, interdependence in the hierarchy of routines that constitute organizational capabilities has led companies to broaden the scope of supplier development over time. Third, this broadening challenges suppliers to accept customer companies' intervention in internal investment decisions, requiring a certain mode of corporate governance. It is argued that the boundary of a capability-based firm may go beyond legally distinct units of financial control when firms are subjected to a cumulative process of capability enhancement.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
