    abstract = {Indonesian manufacturing companies recognize the importance 
  of technological innovation to improve their competitiveness in the global competition. 
  They need a measurement tool to assess and improve their innovativeness which 
  is suitable for Indonesian context. The study focuses on manufacturing sector 
  due to its substantial contribution of Indonesian economy and its big challenges. 
  A measurement model, as a function of the activities in the technological innovation 
  process and the management of the innovation and its measurement tool to assess 
  the innovativeness of a company have been developed using cases in 4 companies 
  in pharmaceutical and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) industry. 
  Consequently, the measurement tool is expected to help Indonesia&#146;s 
  manufacturing companies to recognize their state of innovativeness and eventually 
  improve it. This study describes the pilot testing of the measurement tool, 
  using questionnaires sent to manufacturing companies in Indonesia which classifies 
  company&#146;s innovativeness into 
  CLAS-category (creative, lucky, automatic and superb). The measurement tool 
  has predicted that most of companies in pharmaceutical and ICT industry are 
  classified in superb-category. It has also predicted the innovativeness categories 
  of other companies reasonably well.}
