Developing an Integrated Conceptual Model of Dynamic Capabilities for MSME in Agribusiness Sector: A Systematic Review

Abstract

Micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSME) are vital to economic growth, particularly in developing nations. In ambiguous and unpredictable business situations, strategic management in various industries has extensively used dynamic capabilities (DC) theory to pursue a competitive advantage. The objective of this study is to construct an integrated conceptual model for DC in MSME in the agribusiness sector. Using the PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis) protocol, the study employs a systematic literature review methodology in order to achieve the goals. A comprehensive search of the Scopus database using keywords and search strings returned 443 papers published between 2002 and 2022, with 26 relevant research highlighted and synthesized. The study results indicate that the integrated model of DC focuses on three aspects: the antecedent, the process, and the outcome. This article's findings should be regarded as a guide or road map for future empirical studies on the subject of DC in MSME.
