Abstract

This study focuses on the development of a comprehensive multi-criteria tool to assess the readiness of Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) in the domain of technology transfer. Technology transfer plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between academic research and its practical application, thereby fostering innovation and economic growth. The research specifically investigates the case of Don Honorio Ventura State University (DHVSU) in Bacolor, Pampanga, to evaluate its technology transfer preparedness. The study employs an action research approach in establishing the assessment framework. A multi-criteria decision-making model is designed using the Technological, Organizational, and Environmental (TOE) framework. By evaluating these factors, the tool aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of DHVSU's readiness to facilitate technology transfer and innovation. Primary data collection methods, primarily through surveys, are employed to gather data from different stakeholders, including faculty members, administrators, and industry professionals. The collected data are then integrated into the developed multi-criteria tool, which facilitates a systematic evaluation of DHVSU's technology transfer readiness. The findings of this study will contribute to the identification of strengths and weaknesses within DHVSU's technology transfer ecosystem. The assessment outcomes will aid in the formulation of tailored strategies and recommendations to enhance the university's readiness in technology transfer initiatives. Additionally, the multi-criteria tool developed in this research can serve as a valuable resource for other HEIs seeking to evaluate and improve their technology transfer capabilities.
