Strategic Management Practices in Construction Industry (Seminar PPT)
Strategic Management Practices in Construction Industry: A Study of Indonesian Enterprises ------ The results of this study provide empirical evidence in support of the notion that a competitive advantage is achieved via the implementation of a dynamic capability framework as an important way for a construction enterprise to improve its organisational performance. The characteristics of asset-capability combinations were found to be significant determinants of the competitive advantage of the Indonesian construction enterprises, and that such advantage sequentially contributes to organisational performance. If a dynamic capabilities framework can work in the context of Indonesia, it suggests that the framework has potential applicability in other emerging and developing countries.

• Strategic management research related to the Indonesian construction industry remain scarce. This has potentially become one of the factors hampering efforts to guide Indonesian construction enterprises.
Research ObjectivesResearch Objectives
• Major aims is to construct a conceptual model to enable Indonesian construction enterprises to develop sound long-term corporate strategy that generates competitive advantage and superior performance.

Research ObjectivesResearch Objectives
Specific objectives:• Explore a number of strategic factors and their
characteristics and inter-relationships that may potentially affect the competitive advantage and the performance of a firm.
• Construct a conceptual model that captures the linkages with specific factors, competitive advantage and performance
• Verify the characteristics and inter-relationships of the factors and setting within the conceptual model based on survey feedback.
Research ScopeResearch Scope
• Specific focus on exploring the “Dynamic Capabilities Framework” (Teece et al. 1997; Teece 2007).
• Limited to those Indonesian construction enterprises belonging to the first-class qualification (Grade 6-7)
5
Research SignificanceResearch Significance
• Filling the gap between theoretical construct and practical evidence of dynamic capabilities framework within the construction industrial context
• Introduces the framework for Indonesian construction firms which has never adopted previously by others.

Research MethodologyResearch Methodology
Why Survey?• The type of research question (Yin 2003).• 70% of empirical studies on dynamic capabilities
used surveys and case-based data sources (Arend and Bromiley, 2009)
• Data Access to private firms• Limited time resources (Cross Section)

Discussion of ResultsDiscussion of Results
Model Evaluation – H1/H2
• All regression models fully support hypotheses 1 and 2 : all asset-capability combinations fully exhibit the characteristics of value and rarity
• All value variables contribute more to the competitive advantage than rarity variables (except in the reputational model)
• Reputational model records the largest contributor of rarity, the technological model contributes the highest value
Discussion of ResultsDiscussion of Results
Model Evaluation – H3
• Market and reputational asset-capability combinations are major contributors in determining the competitive advantage and performance of Indonesian construction enterprises
• The technological advantage model is the lowest contributors to the performance.
18
Discussion of ResultsDiscussion of Results
Model Evaluation – H4 / H5
• Competitive advantage fully plays it mediation role in the relationship between characteristics of asset-capabilities combination and performance of the firm.
• The results affirm previous studies that competitive advantage and performance are two distinct construct (Tang and Liou’s 2009; Grahovac & Miller 2009; O’Shannassy 2008; Newbert 2007).
ConclusionsConclusions
1. This study provides empirical evidence in support of the notion that a competitive advantage via the implementation of dynamic capability framework is an important way by the construction enterprise in improving its organisational performance.
19
ConclusionsConclusions
2. The value and rarity characteristics of asset-capability combinations contribute to the competitive advantage of the Indonesian construction enterprises, and that such an advantage, sequentially contribute to its organisational performance (Hypotheses 1,2,3).
ConclusionsConclusions
3. This study offers practical evidence of positively direct relationship between characteristics of the enterprises’ asset-capability, dynamic capability, competitive advantage, and its mediating effect on organisational performance (Hypothesis 4 & 5).
• For practitioners, this study’s finding that a competitive advantage stems from the combination of valuable and rare assets and capabilities may inform the way in which managers make decisions to alter their firms’ asset/capability bases.
• This study suggest that importance knowledge asset as micro-foundation for dynamic capabilities.
• To sustain competitive advantage, it is important that managers develop and/or renewal dynamic capabilities by focusing on elements of knowledge assets through learning process.
• Single respondents and method -> Multiple respondents and methods
• Large firms sample and level -> different company size and level of analysis
• Indonesia focus –> different emerging countries
