ORCHID - Organizational Capabilities for Human-centric Industrial Digitalization
The project explores human-centric aspects, where humans and technology are put at the core, to explore how the ability to strategize organizational capabilities can be enhanced in contemporary manufacturing industries.
The technology intensity in the Swedish manufacturing landscape arguably affects individuals’ interpretation and actions in the local and global strategic work toward industrial digitalization. The aim is to identify and develop existing organizational capabilities for human-centric structures to enhance conditions for social sustainability in terms of workers’ skills and organizational learning to balance exploiting existing capabilities while building new ones—two industrial partners co-produced deliverables, resulting in practical and theoretical knowledge and findings.
