Description
Overcoming the failure of SMEs has been an important research topic. The key research finding is that it has verified the key elements of performance improvement. We presented a solution to the research question, "Is there a causal relationship between the effect on SMEs' success on capacity and business performance?". We analyzed whether the competence of SMEs had a mediating effect between success variables and performance. Secondary effects were empirically analyzed by converting independent variables to Higher-Order Component (HOC). The 2nd order variable of management influenced financial, non-financial, and technical performance, and the 2nd order variable of technology influenced technical performance. Demographic variables were introduced as moderating variables for performance, and gender and years of the establishment had significant moderating effects on technical and non-financial performance. The results are expected to contribute to practical applications not only to SMEs' CEOs, but also to government policymakers, support organizations, academia, and industry.
