Definition

Sydow (1992, P. 3) describes it as: "„An enterprise, which buys up ideas, the production of Subkontrakt enterprises to implement leaves and the distribution by means of more independently, nevertheless into the network (e.g. by means of Franchising) merged marketing agent organized "“.

Conceptual origins

The term hollow of the corporation decreases/goes back to a contribution deplored by N. Jonas in that internationally Business Week of 03.03.1986, that primarily that American enterprises shift ever more frequently their manufacturing production lines into low wage countries, so that "„hollow enterprises develop "“. For Wilson, whose contribution over - how he calls her - post office postindustrielle enterprise only some sides on it follows, is appropriate for their Ausgliederungspotenzial not only in production, but also in internal services, the research and development and in administrative activities.

Sydow (1992, P. 3) refers in its in the network literature much quoted Habilitationsschrift over strategic networks regarding "„hollow the corporation "“also on the IBW expenditure mentioned, used however the term hollow organization.

The term "„of the instrument panel enterprise "“becomes among other things of ox farmer (1989), Sydow (1992), webers (1996) and (2004) uses, because he is worth-more neutral and more descriptive. It dominates since then in the German-language literature.

Emergence

For Sydow such enterprises are leftovers formerly vertically integrated and diversified enterprises after comprehensive function separating or - externalierung. They develop as "„consequence of the Entgrenzung and cross-linking of enterprises, whereby enterprises dissolve as institution as it were "“(P. 162). Nevertheless it is also possible that these enterprises are created from the beginning as such (see 2004, P. 24).
