Technological Innovation and its Impact on the Sustainability and Growth of Small Mechanical Services in the Philippines

Abstract This study investigated the impact of technological innovation on the sustainability and growth of small mechanical contracting services in the Philippines. It explored the challenges and opportunities these services face in adopting emerging technologies such as digitalization, automation, and sustainable materials. The study examined the extent of technology adoption, the drivers and barriers influencing adoption, and the impact of technology adoption on sustainability, competitiveness, and innovation. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, using quantitative surveys and semi-structured interviews with owners, managers, and employees of small mechanical contracting firms. The findings indicate a general trend of technology adoption among these services, with widespread use of mobile technology but less adoption of more advanced technologies like 3D printing, VR/AR, and drones. Technological innovation was found to be positively correlated with both sustainability practices and growth. The study concludes that technological innovation and sustainability practices are important factors for the growth of small mechanical contracting services in the Philippines. These services need to adopt advanced technologies and sustainable practices to enhance their competitiveness and achieve sustainable development
