Abstract

The purpose of this research is to develop a model for measuring the efficiency of the TTO incubation process performance to accelerate the commercialization of research results in universities. The method of analyzing the efficiency used in this research is the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method based on Banker, Charnes, and Cooper (BCC), which is output-oriented. The software used in analyzing the efficiency of TTO performance is MaxDEA 8. The output of this research is a mathematical model tool for measuring the efficiency of TTO performance by DEA, which considered 17 parameters and proposed recommendations for TTO performance strategies. The limitation of this research is the object of research in one university that has succeeded in the commercialization of research. This research implies that the performance efficiency measurement model is an alternative predictive way to increase the acceleration of commercialization. The practical implications of this research are that it can evaluate performance or inefficient strategies in the incubation process of higher education research results to the Technology Transfer Office (TTO). This research also provides recommendations on strengthening the TTO function that can be used as a reference for improving performance at universities. This research measures the level of performance evaluation of TTO in the incubation process, which refers to the Death Valley framework. This incubation process is the main process accelerating the commercialization of research results in universities.

Highlights

  • Nowadays, the government encourages universities to conduct research that has an impact on communities

  • Based on previous research exploring the effect of organizational identification (OID) on organizational innovativeness (OINN) in universities, the findings show that the OID has a positive impact on the ORTC and OINN [10]

  • This study examines the business-incubation process to assess the efficiency level of Technology Transfer Office (TTO) performance to accelerate the commercialization of technology in universities

Summary

Introduction

The government encourages universities to conduct research that has an impact on communities. The research activities, ideas, or problem solutions for community issues could be expanded to be a business organization such as spin-off companies in the universities or external organizations that work together as distributors of innovative products through a partnership scheme (license/royalty) based on the Law of Higher Education Republic Indonesia. This down-streaming process can be interpreted as the commercialization process of research results. One of the factors is the gap between academic and industrial research [2]. Universities must take on a role by establishing a Technology Transfer Office (TTO), which has a key role in providing structural links between universities and industry
