Abstract

This study aims at designing a model for dynamic capabilities evaluation in equipment manufacturing enterprises of Iran power industry. In so doing, enablers and indices of dynamic capabilities four elements (i.e., seizing opportunities, sensing opportunities, innovation implementation and reconfiguration) are identified. Since dynamic capabilities literature is rooted in developed countries, localization of dynamic capability concepts in Iran as a developing country and in the power industry as a main infrastructure of development is a matter of great magnitude. Considering data gathered from more than 100 power industry equipment manufacturers in Iran and gaining the opinions of experts in such fields as innovation management and technology development, the model has been designed and its accuracy will be assessed in the present study.
