Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to study the issue of contingency evolution of acquisition organization systems with the game group link method.
Design/methodology/approach
The concept and method of the game group link are used to analyze the evolution law of acquisition, to find a basis for the contingency evolution of acquisition organization system.
Findings
Studies prove that the contingency evolution of acquisition organization systems has the following basic laws: continuous evolution laws adapted to environmental requirements; laws of coordinated evolution as a whole, law of evolution from gradual change to sudden change; evolution path is determined by concrete situations; evolution pattern is determined by dynamic conditions; and law of evolution promoted by innovation.
Research limitations/implications
Research results of this paper have significance in inspiration and theoretical instruction in respect of effectively increasing evolution profits of acquisition organization systems, promoting realization of purpose of acquisition organization systems, actively boosting evolution, and continuous development of acquisition organization systems.
Practical implications
It is shown that the acquisition process is the reasoning game process, development game process, and production game process conducted in turns by the main participating bodies of acquisition during the full life cycle of equipment. This process has clear features of “link,” and a correlated game link is formed among its different stages.
Originality/value
The paper proves that the acquisition process is a process of multi‐stage complex games and evolution game, with the full life cost control as the key issue in face of a fixed budget.
