This study presents an integrative framework that explains how strategic human resource management (SHRM) promotes the co-evolution of ordinary capabilities (OC) and dynamic capabilities (DC), shapes organizational resilience (OR), and ultimately realizes sustainable competitive advantage. By combining Lepak and Snell’s HR architecture with human capital resource theory, SHRM is reconceptualized as an institutional foundation that shapes the value and interconnectedness of human resources, supports OC renewal, and facilitates DC processes. By integrating Duchek’s resilience model, this study proposes a causal structure model that links the integration of OC and DC with OR. The study provides a foundation for theoretical proposals and future empirical testing, contributing to the understanding of capability development research and adaptation in Japanese companies.
