Abstract

Over the last decades, global production networks have developed to high complex systems. To adapt quickly the dynamic environmental conditions, an active network management is required. The network management and the associated distribution of responsibilities in the production network is mostly grown historically. Further, the issue is only commonly considered in current approaches. Therefore, this paper presents a framework for determining the degree of centralization in global production networks under the aspect of increasing efficiency. Beyond the theoretical framework, a workshop procedure is presented in which the framework can be tested.
