Abstract: Abstract According to the traditional ‘stable-process’ problem (i.e. macro–micro problem), the firm’s structure (i.e. stable) and production (i.e. process) cannot interact (e.g. Bakken and Hernes 2002a). Conceptually, they both remain distinctly different entities, and the differences stem from epistemologically different theoretical projects. However, the complexities of business organizations demand that we are able to analyse them at different levels – i.e. the organization’s structure and production levels – and that we are able to relate processes at different levels to one another.
