Implication

Investigates how organizational ambidexterity influences innovation outcomes in construction megaprojects, indicating tailored strategies are needed.

Key Points

  • The aim is to explore how organizational ambidexterity addresses innovation paradoxes in construction megaprojects.
  • Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of 429 survey responses.
  • Identification of pathways for exploratory and exploitative innovation.
  • Assessment of factors influencing innovation modes, including project complexity and learning capability.
  • Exploratory innovation relies on cooperative R&D and loose formal control with strong informal control.
  • Exploitative innovation depends on independent R&D and tight formal control.
  • Common triggers for both innovation modes include project complexity, importance, and learning capability.
