Field Validation of Collaborative Capacity Audit

Abstract

This phase of our study further develops and refines a collaboration capacity survey that was designed by the authors in 2003. Using verbal protocols with subject-matter experts in the DoD acquisition arena, field-testing, and a literature review, the researchers piloted alternative forms of the diagnostic survey. The result was a refined set of interview questions and a survey containing items that assess collaborative capacity, individual demographics, and organizational demographics. Our research journey has thus brought us to the point of operationalizing our conceptual model of collaborative capacity. We believe this diagnostic survey holds promise both for both practice and theory.
