Building upon a growing number of studies in management science that utilizes simulation methods and analogies to Kauffman´s model of biological evolution, we developed a computer model to emulate competition and observe whether different search methods matter, under varied conditions. This study also explores potential explanations for the persistence of above and below average performances of firms under competition. / A intenção deste trabalho é explorar dinâmicas de competição por meio de “simulação baseada em agentes”. Apoiando-se em um crescente número de estudos no campo da estratégia e teoria das organizações que utilizam métodos de simulação, desenvolveu-se um modelo computacional para simular situações de competição entre empresas e observar a eficiência relativa dos métodos de busca de melhoria de desempenho teorizados. O estudo também explora possíveis explicações para a persistência de desempenho superior ou inferior das empresas, associados às condições de vantagem ou desvantagem competitiva
