Abstract

Previous studies indicate that absorptive capacity (ACAP) is a key factor for companies to achieve dynamic capability and competitive advantage. This construct is usually operationalized from two dimensions, namely the potential absorptive capacity (PACAP) and the realized absorptive capacity (RACAP). This study investigates the influence of both ACAP dimensions concerning project performance and project innovation, in addition to analyzing the mediating role played by the learning culture in these relations. Moreover, these relations are investigated based on the structural equation modeling (SEM) method, using the partial least square (PLS) approach, applied to a sample of 128 companies in the automotive industry that manufacture auto parts. According to the results, project performance and project innovation are differently impacted by PACAP and RACAP. Furthermore, the study points out that learning culture only influences relations between RACAP and project performance and project innovation.

项目绩效与创新：吸收能力和学习文化的影响

以往的研究表明，吸收能力（ACAP）是企业实现动态能力和竞争优势的关键因素。这一概念通常从两个维度进行操作，即潜在吸收能力（PACAP）和实现吸收能力（RACAP）。本研究探讨了潜在吸收能力（PACAP）和实现吸收能力（RACAP）这两个维度对项目绩效和项目创新的影响，并分析了学习文化在这些关系中发挥的中介作用。此外，本研究还基于结构方程建模（SEM）方法，使用偏最小二乘法（PLS），以汽车行业中生产汽车零部件的 128 家公司为样本，对这些关系进行了研究。研究结果表明，项目绩效和项目创新受 PACAP 和 RACAP 的影响不同。此外，研究还指出，学习文化只影响 RACAP 与项目绩效和项目创新之间的关系。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Engineering and Technology Management (JET-M) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of technology, innovation, and engineering management. The journal links engineering, science, and management disciplines. It addresses the issues involved in the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities to shape and accomplish the strategic and operational objectives of an organization. It covers not only R&D management, but also the entire spectrum of managerial concerns in technology-based organizations. This includes issues relating to new product development, human resource management, innovation process management, project management, technological fusion, marketing, technological forecasting and strategic planning. The journal provides an interface between technology and other corporate functions, such as R&D, marketing, manufacturing and administration. Its ultimate goal is to make a profound contribution to theory development, research and practice by serving as a leading forum for the publication of scholarly research on all aspects of technology, innovation, and engineering management.
