Abstract

A mediation and moderation model was developed to investigate the effects of innovation capability on the links between radical and incremental innovations and business performance. The findings showed that innovation capability fully mediates the relationship between radical innovation and business performance. Additionally, construction companies with a low innovation capability have a strong effect on incremental innovation and business performance relationships. The findings illustrate the heterogeneous effects of innovation capability on the link between radical and incremental innovations and business performance. Construction practitioners should understand the forms of innovation they pursue to leverage innovation capability for superior business performance.
