Résumé
L’objectif de cet article est de proposer un cadre conceptuel permettant de penser l’articulation entre la standardisation et la flexibilité au sein des organisations à travers le prisme des routines organisationnelles et de leurs artefacts. Notre démarche consiste à organiser différentes contributions dialoguant peu entre elles au sein d’un cadre intégrateur. Le cadre proposé est fondé sur le développement des concepts d’inscription et d’affordance. Il permet non seulement de penser les artefacts dans leur imbrication avec les situations sociales au sein desquelles ils sont conçus et utilisés mais également de prendre en compte leurs formes matérielles.
Mots-clés :
- dynamique des routines,
- artefacts,
- socio(-)matérialité,

Abstract
This article aims to introduce a conceptual framework to account for the interplay between standardization and flexibility within organizational contexts. This framework focuses on this interplay through the perspective of organizational routines and their artifacts. It allows to make connections between various contributions that were so far relatively independent. We stress how the concepts of inscription and affordance are useful to consider how artifacts are intricately woven into the social fabric of their design and usage contexts, without neglecting their material forms.
Keywords:
- routine dynamics,
- artifacts,
- socio(-)materiality,
- inscription,
- affordance,
- socio(-)material assemblage
Resumen
El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un marco conceptual para dar cuenta de la interacción entre la estandarización y la flexibilidad en contextos organizativos. Este marco se enfoca en dicha interacción a través de la perspectiva de las rutinas organizativas y sus artefactos. Ello permite establecer vínculos entre diversas contribuciones hasta ahora relativamente independientes. Destacamos la utilidad de los conceptos de inscripción y affordance para examinar cómo los artefactos están íntimamente entrelazados con el tejido social de sus contextos de diseño y uso, aunque sin descuidar sus formas materiales.
Palabras clave:
- dinámica de rutinas,
