Working paper: The Strategic Use of Architectural Knowledge by Entrepreneurial Firms
Entrepreneurial firms rich in knowledge but poor in other resources can use superior architectural knowledge of a technical system to gain strategic advantage over larger and better endowed rivals.
HBS professor Carliss Y. Baldwin presents a model and provides examples showing that architectural knowledge can be applied strategically to change a firm's scope and boundaries, make innovations more or less autonomous, and change the span of problems it must solve.
