Abstract

PurposeThis study aims to explore how the application of digital technology and information technology can help firms improve their innovation performance and examines the mediating mechanisms of supply chain agility and supply chain integration.Design/methodology/approachThis study conducted a questionnaire survey of 320 business managers in an automotive cluster in China and analyzed the collected data using structural equations.FindingsDigital technology applications (DTA) have a positive impact on innovation performance, while supply chain agility and integration mediate this impact. In addition, information technology applications (ITA) also has a positive impact on innovation performance, while supply chain agility and integration mediate between the two. Supply chain agility (SCA) and supply chain integration (SCI) significantly enhance the positive impact of technology adoption on firms' innovation performance.Originality/valueThis study confirms the impact of digital technology and information technology applications on innovation performance and explores the mediating role played by supply chain agility and integration.
数字化和信息技术的采用如何影响企业的创新绩效:来自中国汽车企业的证据
本研究旨在探讨数字技术和信息技术的应用如何帮助企业提高创新绩效,并研究供应链敏捷性和供应链整合的中介机制。研究结果数字技术应用(DTA)对创新绩效有积极影响,而供应链敏捷性和整合则是这一影响的中介。此外,信息技术应用(ITA)也对创新绩效产生了积极影响,而供应链敏捷性和整合性在两者之间起到了中介作用。本研究证实了数字技术和信息技术应用对创新绩效的影响,并探讨了供应链敏捷性和整合性的中介作用。
