The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The Role of Environmental Management in Sustainable Business Development: A Multi-Country Investigation (2012, unknown): “Lapré and Scudder (2004) relied on the theory to suggest ways on how to best further improve operations, and Chung and Swink (2009) applied the theory to develop their hypothesis linking high levels of advanced manufacturing technology utilization to the achievement of superior capabilities in…”
Operations Strategy Research in the POMS Journal (2005, background): “With a few notable exceptions (e.g., Dostaler 2001; Lapre and Scudder 2004), research in this area is primarily conceptual in nature; there is a strong need to empirically examine dynamic models of operations strategy.”
Revisiting Relational Coordination: A Systematic Review (2021, unknown): “On a given production possibilities frontier, quality and efficiency are in opposition to each other such that one must be “traded off” in order to improve the other (Lapré & Scudder, 2004; Schmenner & Swink, 1998).”
The cumulative capability ‘sand cone’ model revisited: a new perspective for manufacturing strategy (2011, background): “Another school of thought has advocated reconciling the apparent differences between the trade-off and the sand cone models through what is commonly referred to as the integrative model (Clark 1996 , Hayes and Pisano 1996 , Schmenner and Swink 1998 , Lapre and Scudder 2004 ).”
