Project-based Organization And Complex Product System

In recent years, research focuses on international academic community are Complex Product Systems (CoPS) and Project-Based Organization (PBO), which are important for large enterpeises in China, who engage in industry upgrading and entering into enternational markets. Enterprises in China have competitive advantages in large scale production of consumer goods and take a big share in world market, while in high margin capital goods (CoPS) market; there is big gap between our enterprises and foreign companies.Employing the methods of theoretical analysis, case studies and comparative analyses, and based on the capability theory of the firm, we deeply analyzed the production nature, market structure and risk characteristics of CoPS, which leading to its special organization form that is in a significant difference to the mass-industrial-production's. In China, the original impression on the Project-Based Organization is the "Lubuge Hydropower Station Project", but the originally "construction using project management method" still existed some shortage. This paper introduced knowledge management into the economic analysis on the enterprise organization and the reform of production, and analyzed the influences of different organization forms on knowledge stock and knowledge utilization, and then analyzed the PBO and its ability construction problems from two aspects of organization form and ability development. Through theoretical analysis and construction the model of organization structure on project and the model of enterprise output mechanism, we found that PBO is in favor of knowledge sharing, and PBO is favor of the R&D&P of CoPS and realize "repeatition economy", so that PBO is suitable for CoPS.The nature of CoPS, or the nature of CoPS'market, determined its organization form, its innovation and its coordinated way. This causality is actually bidirectional. The traditional organizaition form for mass-production-product is not fit for the complex system of product's research and development, design and manufacture, and CoPS' organization need to carry on the innovation on organization form and coordination method, aim to development suitable enterprise competence for its product, and then can gain the share in the high-end capital goods market, which has great practical significance to some Chinese large enterprise.
