This study investigates the governance determinants influencing the performance of Indonesia’s Buy The Service (BTS) urban transport programme and its implications for sustainable mobility and environmental planning. Using a mixed-methods design that integrates Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) with qualitative institutional analysis, the study examines how Policy Alignment, Institutional Capacity, Coordination, Regulatory Design, Political Commitment, Public Participation, and Resistance to Change shape Local Government Authority and, subsequently, BTS performance. The results show that Local Government Authority is the strongest predictor of BTS outcomes (β = 0.789; R² = 0.706), underscoring the importance of coherent mandates, regulatory power, and coordinated planning in delivering effective public transport services. Resistance to Change demonstrates a significant negative influence, reflecting broader political economy constraints that undermine institutional coherence and programme implementation. Qualitative findings further reveal that governance-driven improvements contribute to perceived environmental benefits, including reduced congestion, emissions, and private vehicle dependence, linking BTS performance to broader sustainable development objectives. The study offers important policy implications by highlighting the need for stronger cross-level policy alignment, enhanced regulatory authority for local governments, institutionalized coordination mechanisms, and participatory strategies to manage stakeholder resistance. The findings also extend theoretical discourse by identifying authority as a central mediating mechanism within multi-level governance frameworks. Limitations related to perceived environmental measures and sample coverage suggest opportunities for future research incorporating longitudinal designs, direct environmental impact data, and comparative analyses across urban contexts.

Purpose: This study examines the role of government and community support in enhancing Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) competitive advantage through internal capabilities. Although external support has been widely recognized as a key driver of MSME performance, few studies have explained how these various support providers enhance competitive advantage through the development of organizational capabilities.Research Methodology: A quantitative cross-sectional survey of 100 MSMEs affiliated with the North Sumatra Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) was analysed using PLS-SEM in SmartPLS 3. Internal Capabilities were modeled as a higher-order construct comprising Leadership, Entrepreneurial Motivation, and Financial Competence.Results: Government support has a significant impact on both internal capabilities and competitive advantage, whilst community support significantly strengthens internal capabilities but does not directly influence competitive advantage. Internal capabilities have a significant positive influence on competitive advantage and act as a mediator in the relationship between external support and competitive advantage.Conclusions: External support contributes to the competitiveness of MSMEs through various strategic mechanisms, with internal capacity acting as the primary channel for transforming external support into a sustainable competitive advantage.Limitations: This study employs a cross-sectional design and focuses on MSMEs that are members of KADIN in North Sumatra.Contributions: This study extends the literature by conceptualizing Internal Capabilities as a higher-order construct integrating Leadership, Entrepreneurial Motivation, and Financial Competence to explain MSME competitive advantage.
