Abstract

The objective of this paper was to identify the influence of the governance structure in the development of organizational skills from the perspective of Economics of Transaction Costs (ECT). Two companies were analyzed (corporation) in the city of Campinas and region. This study was characterized as an exploratory case study (Yin, 2001). The portfolio of both tests are diagnostic imaging (MRI, CT, ultrasound and mammography). Due to strong growth of magnetic resonance imaging in the matrix demand, hiring a specialized supplier in this mode to who was transferred was only necessary and only the activity of low complexity reports, and so the matrix governance structure has become hybrid. It was focused on this transaction that the study results showed that the governance structures not only influenced the development of new, as interacted for strengthening and elimination of some existing organizational skills.
