Abstract: This article addresses the underlying capacities attached to collaborative approaches to innovation. Adopting a qualitative methodology from a historical case study, it examines how the first computerised Tactical Strike and Reconnaissance aircraft (TSR-2) had been developed in the early sixties by the British military industry. The study contributes to theory by indicating that the development of the TSR-2 aircraft required four dimensions to be managed and aligned, each reflecting a particular capacity (design, interaction, governance and culture) the organisation should hold so as to reap the full benefits of adopting collaborative approaches to innovation.
