制造企业数字化创新影响因素研究:基于fsQCA方法

Influential Factors of Digital Innovation in Manufacturing Enterprises Based on the fsQCA Method

基于“技术-组织-环境”理论框架,以45家制造企业为样本,运用模糊集定性比较分析(fsQCA)方法探索企业技术、组织以及环境对制造企业数字化创新的影响。研究发现,(1)工业互联网应用、创新资源、高管技术背景、人才基础、市场竞争、政府支持等因素并不是制造企业数字化创新的必要条件,单个因素无法有效促进制造企业数字化创新;(2)形成制造业数字化创新共有5条路径,被分为3种类型,分别是技术-环境协同型、技术-组织协同型、技术-组织-环境协同型;(3)工业互联网应用和人才基础对于推动制造企业数字化创新具有普适作用。研究结论有助于揭示制造企业数字化创新发展背后多重因素的协同作用机制,为中国制造企业数字化创新提供有益的实践启示。

Based on the theoretical framework of"Technology Organization-Environment",this study explores the influence of technology,organization and environment on digital innovation of manufacturing enterprises by using fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA)method with a sample of 45 manufacturing enterprises.The study found that:(1)industrial Internet application,innovation resources,executive technical background,talent base,market competition,and government support are not necessary conditions for digital innovation in manufacturing enterprises,and individual factors cannot effectively promote digital innovation in manufacturing enterprises;(2)there are five pathways to digital innovation in manufacturing industries,which are classified into three types,namely technologyenvironment synergy,technology-organization synergy,technology-organization-environment synergy,and technology-organization-environment synergy;(3)industrial Internet applications and talent base have universal effects on promoting digital innovation in manufacturing enterprises.The findings help to reveal the synergistic mechanisms of multiple factors behind the development of digital innovation in manufacturing enterprises and provide useful practical insights for digital innovation in Chinese manufacturing enterprises.
