Abstract:

In order to improve the efficacy of fire safety supervision, an analysis framework named TOE of fire safety supervision was constructed according to the TOE framework. The fsQCA method was used to study the causal mechanism between different factors and supervision performance. Five configuration paths were developed to achieve good supervision performance: technical support-dynamic governance, technical support-normal supervision, both normal and dynamic supervision-technical promotion, environmental shaping-dynamic governance, and environmental shaping-normal supervision. The results show that with the help of financial advantages, economically leading regions can adopt two paths of technical support-dynamic governance and technical support-normal supervision to improve the performance of fire safety supervision. Economically backward regions tend to focus on three other paths of both normal and dynamic supervision-technical promotion, environmental shaping-dynamic governance, and environmental shaping-normal supervision. By combining different governance methods such as normal supervision and dynamic governance and shaping the fire safety environment, it has a positive effect on improving the performance of fire safety supervision.

Key words: technology-organization-environment (TOE) framework, fire safety supervision, fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), configuration analysis, fire supervision performance
