Dynamic Capabilities of an Enterprise: Methods of Revelation and Tracing Maturity

The article describes key provisions of the methodical approach to revelation of dynamic capabilities of an enterprise and tracing their maturity. It systemises methodological grounds and clarifies main provisions of identification of dynamic capabilities of an enterprise in the context of the resource approach. The author's generalisation of methodological grounds of the concept of dynamic capabilities is based on revelation of a spectrum of strategic ambitions of an enterprise of the post-industrial era, described in the context of two types of market behaviour - pro-active and re-active (adaptive). The article marks out that various types of market behaviour of an enterprise are based on various methodological platforms, among which the most widespread are the concepts of bursting innovations and "blue ocean", knowledge management and also a relational concept of a firm. Successful solution of the task of achievement by a firm of stable competitive advantages is gained due to the use of its dynamic capabilities in the spheres of strategic management, innovation and investment activity and business interaction (network of trust relationship with other market participants). The article argues that the mechanism of revelation of dynamic capabilities is based on a combination of unique competences of an enterprise, which are proposed to determine at five levels of an organisation - individual, group (role), functional, strategic and general organisational. Taking into account practical absence of methodical developments in this direction, the article offers to form a scorecard for tracing maturity of dynamic capabilities in the context of the balanced scorecard of activity of an enterprise. The proposed system of key indicators is a part of a theoretical construct and requires adaptation and development for an individual enterprise.
