Digital business-to-business (B2B) platforms have become essential components of today's economy. However, the impact of digital B2B platforms on global production networks has not yet been sufficiently conceptualized and empirically examined. This article proposes an analytical framework to theorize platform-based reconfigurations of global production networks. By using the case of digital logistics platforms, the article illustrates that service-centred platforms, in particular, have a major impact on global production networks, as they are able to position themselves as lead firms and to utilize data to shape the organizational and spatial composition of global production networks.

数字平台和全球生产网络的重新配置


数字企业对企业 （B2B） 平台已成为当今经济的重要组成部分。然而，数字 B2B 平台对全球生产网络的影响尚未得到充分的概念化和实证检验。本文提出了一个分析框架，以理论化全球生产网络的基于平台的重新配置。本文以数字物流平台为例，表明以服务为中心的平台尤其对全球生产网络产生重大影响，因为它们能够将自己定位为领先企业，并利用数据来塑造全球生产网络的组织和空间构成。
