Purpose- Businesses depend more on knowledge than other factors. Many academics have described the idea of absorptive capacity as a skill for handling outside knowledge. Since organizational phenomenon is a complex , the issue of absorptive capacity as a strategic and dynamic capability still merits further research consideration. Previous research shows that some of the variables are beyond the firm's control and moderate the effect of knowledge source and experience on absorptive capacity. The intensity of the triggers may have an impact on the firm's investment in absorptive capacity capability. The purpose of this study is to review and identify endogenous and exogenous contingencies that function as activation triggers on absorptive capacity based on the previous literature. Methodology- The theoretical model, hypothesis, and measurement indicators for the study's variables are described in this paper. Findings- The study of previous research shows that learning organization structure, business environment, organizational leadership, learning culture, management review, and competitive strategy play roles as moderator activation triggers in this study. According to the findings, businesses face complex and unpredictable business environment changes, as well as significant knowledge gaps. Decentralized and dynamic structures with participation in decision-making have a moderating effect on the capacity to absorb knowledge and make it easier for businesses to absorb new ideas. The results show that organizational culture fosters the development of fresh perspectives and encourages the integration of external knowledge to maximize the benefits of complementary knowledge sources. Also, the competitive strategy defines the scope and context of perception and learning. Other activation triggers that require more investigation include information technology, stakeholders, professional conduct, and research and development units. Conclusion- Managers can explore a variety of strategic alternatives and forge competitive advantages for their companies by using activation triggers as a group of variables to upgrade existing talents and develop new capabilities of absorptive capacity.
