Abstract

This study examines how technology-organization-environment (TOE) readiness (TR), ambidextrous organization (AO), and organizational resilience (OR) influence innovation performance (IP) and competitive advantage (CA) in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), focusing on craft-based firms operating in dynamic and uncertain environments. A quantitative research design was chosen to collect survey data from 200 Indonesian craft-based SME owners and managers. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was employed to analyze the data and examine both direct and indirect relationships among the proposed constructs. The findings demonstrate that TR, AO, and OR each have a significant positive effect on IP. In turn, IP has a strong positive effect on CA, highlighting its key role in converting organizational capabilities into market success as well as a complementary mediating mechanism linking TR, AO, and OR to competitive outcomes. The novel contribution of this study is the empirical integration of TR with internal dynamic capabilities, namely AO and OR, in a single structural model that explains how SMEs transform innovation-related capabilities into CA. This integrative perspective contributes to the literature on SME innovation and offers practical implications for managers and policymakers seeking to strengthen innovation-driven competitiveness and long-term sustainability amid turbulent environmental conditions in emerging market contexts.

Abstract

This research investigates the interaction between Triple Helix capability, Technology–Organization–Environment (TOE) readiness, organizational ambidexterity, and organizational resilience in enhancing innovation performance and achieving sustainable competitive advantage among craft-based Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. This study aims to examine the collective influence of TOE readiness, organizational ambidexterity, and organizational resilience on innovation performance, assess the direct impact of TOE readiness, and investigate the mediating roles of ambidexterity and resilience. A quantitative research approach was employed using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with data collected from 154 SME respondents. The study assessed the measurement model’s validity and reliability, evaluated structural relationships, and applied Importance–Performance Map Analysis (IPMA) to identify strategic priorities for SME development. The results reveal that Triple Helix capability, TOE readiness, organizational ambidexterity, and organizational resilience significantly and positively influence SME innovation performance. TOE readiness acts as a complementary partial mediator between Triple Helix capability and innovation performance, while ambidextrous organization and resilience strengthen SMEs’ adaptive capacity in dynamic market environments. IPMA results highlight TOE readiness as the primary construct requiring improvement to enhance innovation outcomes. Findings emphasize the need for continuous collaboration between government, academia, and industry to strengthen digital readiness, promote innovation capability, and ensure sustainable SME competitiveness. This study contributes a comprehensive integrative model linking the Triple Helix framework with TOE readiness and internal organizational capabilities—an area still limited in developing-country SME contexts—offering both theoretical enrichment and practical strategies for sustainable innovation-driven growth.
