ABSTRACT Survival and stability in a competitive environment is not possible without innovation and it should be toward the increasing competition ability. Otherwise, there is no way other than destruction and elimination. Innovation and technology management will result in a current competitive market to remain stable. In this regards, the innovation capability assessment may help managers in their investments and resource allocations. Assessment of innovation capabilities provides the analysis of conditions, potentials of the institutions and its comparison with status of the competitors before taking strategic decisions. In other words, without enjoying a level of innovation capability, innovation implementation would not be possible (including innovation in product/service or innovation in process). In the present work, a detailed assessment for the innovation capability of Hampa Energy Co. and in parallel the status of various aspects of innovation will be discussed. The gap in the aspects is determined and the suggested solutions will be proposed for the improvement of current status. KEYWORDS: Technology, Innovation, innovation capability, Innovation system When in the twentieth century Schumpeter's theory of creative destruction dominated in West's industrial economics (and thus in the world), what happened practically was the removal and destruction of static olds versus dynamic and innovative newcomers. Everybody sought for seizing more market share and driving out competitors from the market, the result of which was the elimination of competitors from the market. Thus, a concept known as competitiveness was developed. Innovation plays a basic role in competitiveness. Competitiveness is discussed at two levels: at national level and firm level. Innovation is as old as human life in terms of practice. However, in terms of theory, innovation theory emerged in the industrial era with emergence of economic schools. Two main issues are discussed in economic theories: 1- How the wealth is created in the community? 2- How the wealth should be distributed in the community? Economic schools seek for answering two questions. The appropriate answer to these two questions guarantees social development. Success of organization mostly originates from innovation. Competitive advantage may result from the size and ownership of the assets. But it changed mostly in favor of organizations which can use technological knowledge and experience for innovation in products or services and their development methods (Tidd and Bessant, 2009). Assessment of innovation capabilities provides possibility for analyzing conditions and potentials of the institutions and its comparison with the competitors in adopting strategic decisions. Also, innovation capabilities are prerequisite for the realization of innovation in the economic institution. In other words, without enjoying a level of innovation capabilities, innovation (including innovation in product/ service or innovation in process) would not be possible. In addition, assessment of innovation capabilities is very useful in defining future strategies. REVIEW OF LITERATURE According to Khalil, innovation means delivering new product, services or process to market through developing new applications of the existing technologies or creation and commercialization of new technologies. According to Schumpeter, innovation is not confined even to technical aspects and includes also organizational aspects (Khalil, 2000). On the other hand, innovation is known as transforming knowledge and ideas to the new or improved products, services or for obtaining competitive advantage (Microsoft Corporation, 2007). 1 Corresponding author

2 Literally the word "innovation" is rooted in the Latin word "novus" meaning "new" which is taken from the verb "in + novare" meaning "to create something new". Hence, to "innovate" means being the first or introducing (something new) for the first time and "innovation" means "the act of introducing something new" (The American Heritage Dictionary, 2000) (Mutlu and Er, 2003). Innovation is a repetitive process which initiates with perceiving a new market or opportunity for a new service for an invention based on the technology and leads to development, production and marketing efforts for invention s business success (Kumar and Phrommathed, 2005). A more perfect definition was provided in 2012 in which innovation capabilities refer to a collection of related capabilities which product and allocate value in the company. It can include the introduction of new products, services, or ways for organizing a company s processes (Borjesson & Elmquist, 2012). Some approaches to innovation assessment are as follows: Approach 1: Tidd et al. approach: Tidd et al. showed at innovation with a strategic view and assess innovation at organizational level based on this view. They consider that concepts of the organization's success in innovation and organizational capacity for innovation are complementary, though they look at the organization in two different aspects. The concept of organization's success assessment is an investigation of the past status of the organization in terms of innovation and it is merely assessment of results and outcomes of the organization. In other words, it shows the organization success and health in comparison with the optimal status of the industry, while innovation assessment represents weakness and strengths of the organization in basic parameters of innovation and it is a guide for improvement of the organization status or progress of relative advantages to transform them to strategic advantage (Tidd, Bessant; Pavitt, 1998) Approach 2: Cebon et al. approach: Cebon et al. (1999) attempted to propose a theoretical framework for developing indexes for innovation assessment. They refer to some basic differences between innovation concepts which show why developing simple indexes is difficult for innovation assessment (Cebon, 1999). Approach 3: Niwasan and Narayana's approach: They are two Indian authors. Their definition for innovation is somehow different from others' definition, since they consider R & D stage separate from innovation. They were too accurate in developing innovation criteria and indexes. Their approach can help in identifying weaknesses and strengths to the institutions. In addition, these authors provided useful material on pathology and promotion of innovation (Bushehri et al., 2002). Approach 4: Arasti et al. approach: This approach is extended model proposed by Morrell and Boolean. This model provides a primary classification of the factors shaping innovation capacity (Arasti et al., 2008): - Creating suitable workspace through leadership, of innovation activities - Procedure of processes and communication within and outside the organization - Strategic Knowledge Management - Collecting and generating new ideas - Human Resource Management based on innovation. Approach 5: Bushehri et al. approach: This model consists of two areas within the organization and outside the organization. In the external environment, industrial relations with customers, suppliers, competitors, markets, and scientific communities are evaluated. Internal space consists of three main balancing systems, including idea generation system, resource supply system and product development system. These three categories constitute the organization's system of innovation (Bushehri et al., 2002). Place of innovation in the new is shown below in Table 1.

3 Table 1: Place of innovation in the new world Comparison case Old world New world Training Techniques vocational training through apprenticeship in the production stage Vocational training in technical and vocational schools based on the knowledge gained from the innovation Creating technical knowledge Production Creating technical knowledge in the production and storage stage in mind Craftsmanship production resulting from difficult human labor and subject to natural coercive forces Establishment of technical knowledge in R & D institutions and recording in patented innovations and embodied in machinery and production lines (resulting technical innovations)che miko production resulting from human creativity, machinery working free from coercive forces of nature (technology-driven and requiring constant innovation to improve the level of technology) Market Shifted production to local markets and consumer production based on relative and competitive advantages focused on global and regional markets (innovation is the main factor of competition) Innovation levels form the Schumpeter can be concluded as follows: 1. Innovation in product / service Introduction of a new Product/Service or dramatic development in the existing product quality 2. Innovation in the process METHODOLOGY AND RESEARCH METHOD Research conceptual model that was used to design questionnaire and indexes is shown in Fig 1. Introduction of new methods of production 3. Innovation in resources (raw materials) Mastering a new source of supply of raw materials or semi-manufactured goods 4. Innovation in Market (opening new markets) Opening different new markets, particularly export market in a new area 5. Innovation in organization (new ways to organize business) Creating a new type of industrial organizations, that is, administrative innovation (managerial) Figure 1: Conceptual research model (Khamseh et al., 2013) The results of this research can be used in Hampa Energy Co., and other petrochemical industrial companies. It is an applied research study with a logical purpose. Given presence in the company and gaining

4 information from inside the company using questionnaire for collecting expert ideas, it is a survey of field type.
