This study investigated antecedent of technology adoption by connecting TOE with Dynamic capability factors. The four determinant factors has been identified are externalities, entrepreneurial leadership, slack resources, and absorptive capability. Using 518 respondents representing 222 business unit of Indonesia Electricity Company, the study found that only absorptive capability has positively significance effect to technology adoption. The study also empirically proved that technology adoption is a functional competence/capability which mediates dynamic capabilities to firm's performance. Practically regardless firms need some supporting " hardware " content such as externalities, resources and leadership, a successful technology adoption in firm can't be achieved without excellent " software " capability like absorptive capability. Other finding is the absorptive capability typology organization mapping the eight technology adoption status in organization based on those three determinant factors; externalities, entrepreneurial leadership and slack resources.

Design/methodology/approach – A total of 518 supervisors representing 222 business unit of Indonesia Electricity Company completed an online survey questionnaire measuring their responses to six constructs which explain the relationship among technology adoption determinant factors in organization: cast enactment (leadership), transformational enactment (entrepreneurship), absorptive capability, technology adoption and unit performance. A structural equation modeling (SEM) approach using LISREL 8.7 was employed for modeling and data analysis. Findings – Results revealed that the absorptive capability is one of technology adoption determinant factors that significantly enhance unit's performance indirectly. Among entrepreneurial leadership variables, cast enactment (leadership) is less effective than transformational enactment (entrepreneurship) to affect the unit's absorptive capability for the successful technology adoption. Leadership does not affect both technology adoption and absorptive capability directly. While entrepreneurship's effect to technology adoption is indirect; it is mediated by absorptive capability. In addition, three out of six hypotheses were supported in this study. The CFA test of the measurement model and GOFI values of significance tests from the analysis of the structural model show that the overall fit of the structural model is good. Overall, the data in this study provided support that the hypothetical model is a fairly efficient with a potential to help in understanding technology adoption perceived of managers in Indonesia. Originality/value – The model is a well-tested and valid to explain the role of entrepreneurial leadership and absorptive capability to the technology adoption for enhancing unit's performance. The study empirically proved that technology adoption is a functional competence/capability mediating absorptive capability with unit's performance. This study also validated the model on a sample of utility company managers in Indonesia and the results provided initial support for the determinant factors variability of the technology adoption in intra-firm context.
