Dynamic Capability, Generative AI Capability, Resilience and Inclusivity as Pathways to Sustainable Performance: A Systematic Literature Review and Bibliometric Mapping

Eka Surachman, Budhi Pamungkas, Arciana Damayanti

Abstract


Purpose: This study systematically reviews and bibliometrically maps the research field that links dynamic capability, artificial intelligence (AI) capability, organisational and supply chain resilience, inclusivity, and sustainable performance. Its objective is to establish what the field currently explains, where its evidence is thin, and to derive an integrative, empirically grounded model in which generative AI capability and the resilience–inclusivity complex mediate the path from dynamic capability to sustainable performance. Design/methodology/approach: A hybrid design combining a systematic literature review reported in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 statement and a bibliometric analysis was applied to 207 Scopus-indexed journal articles published between 2022 and 2026. Screening was conducted by two independent reviewers with third-reviewer arbitration. The included Scopus was analysed with the R package bibliometrix through its Biblioshiny interface and with VOSviewer 1.6.20, covering performance analysis, three-field analysis, co-word analysis, thematic mapping, keyword co-occurrence and density visualisation, complemented by manual construct-level content coding of every included record. Findings: Output grew from a single article in 2022 to 117 in 2026, with 2,824 citations distributed across 90 sources and 686 authors, and 46.9 per cent of the Scopus produced through international co-authorship. Co-word analysis resolves five clusters: digital transformation and sustainability; AI and innovation performance; supply chain resilience and dynamic capabilities; sustainable development and the circular economy; and a methodological cluster around PLS-SEM. Thematic mapping positions artificial intelligence, digital transformation and SMEs as motor themes, and sustainability, innovation and dynamic capabilities as basic themes.
