Abstract

We begin with defining enterprise economic security to be the ability to survive in a changing and unpredictable environment. To ensure long-term survival, enterprises should distribute their limited adaptation resources be-tween two activities, on the one hand, maintaining current efficiency (adaptedness, in biological terms), and, on the other, future reliability (adaptability). The resources to provide the latter should be “reserved” until change oc-curs; thus, their level should be as minimal as possible. We argue that inventory models could be of considerable impact in defining the rational level of resources that should be stored to ensure adaptability.
