TR 63 BÖLGESİNDE İMALAT İŞLETMELERİNİN İNOVASYON VE AR-GE OLGUNLUK DÜZEYLERİNİN INNOVSCALE İLE BELİRLENMESİ

Bu araştırma TR63 bölgesi bağlamında imalat işletmelerinin inovasyon ve Ar-Ge olgunluk düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu amaçla öncelikle kapsamlı bir yazın taraması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Önceki çalışmalar konu, kapsam, bulgu ve yöntem bakımından incelenmiştir. Buradan elde edilen veriler ışığında Vicente vd. (2015)'nin geliştirmiş olduğu ölçek tercih edilmiş ve uyarlanmıştır. Uyarlama safhasında anketin ön-testi gerçekleştirilmiş ve önerilen değişiklikler gözden geçirilmiştir. Son halini alan ölçek e-posta ve telefon yoluyla rastsal yöntemlerle belirlenen örnekleme uygulanmış ve 263 adet anket formu elde edilmiştir. Bu veriler bir set haline getirilmiştir. SPSS 18.0 ve AMOS 16.0 ile yapılan güvenirlik, geçerlik, korelasyon ve faktör analizi ile yenilikçilikle yeni ürün geliştirme ve teknik kabiliyetlerin daha fazla ilişkili olduğu, stratejik kabiliyetlerin ise daha az ilişkili olduğu görülmüştür.

DEFINING THE INNOVATIONAND R&D MA TURITYLEVELS OF MANUFACTURING FIRMS IN R63 REGION BY USING INNOVSCALE

This research is conducted in order to determine the innovation and R&D maturity levels of manufacturing enterprises in TR63 region. For this purpose initially comprehensive literature review is performed. Previous research was analyzed in terms of topic, scope, methodology and findings. ln the light of the data derived from this review, the scale developed by Vicente et.al. (2015) was chosen and adapted. ln adopting the questionnaire, pre-test is conducted and proposed changes have been made. The final version of the questionnaire is applied to randomly defined 263 respondents via e-mail and phone calls. The data is converted into set. By applying reliability, validity, correlation and factor analysis tests via SPSS 180 and AMOS 16.0, innovativeness is defined to be more related to product development and technical capabilities whereas low relations are detected with strategic capabilities.
