From Digital Intent to Resilient Outcomes
Peng Hu'an et al.
Abstract
The study empirically validates firm resilience (FR) as the outcome of a sequential capability-building process. The authors challenged the conventional literature by arguing that FR is a direct by-product of Digital Transformation, Smart Technologies (ST), and Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM), and integrates them into a sequential pathway. They used 306 logistics firms in China for analysis. They employed the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) technique. The study finds that DT's impact on FR is only through sequential mediation. Moreover, DT leads to ST adoption, which significantly impacts GSCM practices that ultimately lead to enhanced FR. In addition, IP significantly moderates the ST–GSCM relationship. The study provides new insights into resilience and in the emerging context of China by integrating DCV and institutional theory. The study explains the impact of DT on FR through a sequential mediation approach that contributes to both theoretical and empirical research.
