Abstract

This article proposes, from a literature review, to rethink the precept of protection of resources in the strategic perspective of Resource Based View from the point of view of interorganizational relationships. The paper was developed from considerations of the Brazilian context of encapsulated coffee. Our considerations made point to a possibility for micro and small businesses gain a competitive advantage from the decisions of (i) establish a new type of relationship, and (ii) manage the main feature from the concept of open source, which contradicts a dimension of the Resource Based View.
