This study aims at identifying how PMMS are employed to deal with different types of strategies in uncertain ecosystems. Design/methodology/approach: The authors employed an inductive, rich multiple case approach in five focal firms with platform ecosystems. Data collection involved multiple sources of information (primary and secondary data), combing retrospective and longitudinal perspectives. Data analysis combined replication and comparison logic with coding. Findings: This study identifies four major distinctive dimensions of Ecosystem PMMS under uncertainty: (1) Integrative Performance (considering the different ecosystem actors’ performance), (2) Interdependence Performance (mutual, yet not necessarily convergent amongst ecosystem partners), (3) Regulative Performance (paradoxical in nature, having to cope with both flexibility and stability) and finally (4) Phased Learning Performance (non-linear). Research limitations/implications: Our primary contribution is a new framework for PMMS literature: a performance measurement and management system for dealing with strategies in ecosystems. This framework enables managing performance regarding both types of strategies (EBS and ES) and their interplay in uncertain ecosystems. Practical implications: The ecosystem management requires focal firms to measure and manage the overall ecosystem’s performance, and it varies according to the type of strategy adopted in each case. Our framework provides dimensions that guide firms to build and implement PMMS for an ecosystem consistent with the ES. Therefore, it may improve performance, especially in uncertain business contexts. Originality/value: The findings enrich PMMS literature in an ecosystem context related to the ES in uncertain environments.engEcosystemEcosystem strategyPerformance measurement and managementPlatformUncertaintyPerformance measurement and management systems for dealing with strategies in uncertain ecosystemsArtigo10.1108/IJOPM-03-2021-02092-s2.0-85129177729
