This dissertation investigates the impact and mechanisms of supply chain digital transformation on the competitive advantage of manufacturing enterprises in an uncertain environment. It aims to address three key objectives: (1) To explore the relationship between supply chain digital transformation and the competitive advantage of enterprises; (2) To determine the role of supply chain dynamic capability as a mediator between supply chain digital transformation and competitive advantage; and (3) To propose a model that incorporates environmental uncertainty, supply chain digital transformation, supply chain dynamic capability, and competitive advantage. The research adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The quantitative component involves a survey of 220 manufacturing enterprises in China, while the qualitative component consists of semi-structured interviews with sixteen industry experts.The findings reveal that supply chain digital transformation significantly enhances the competitive advantage of manufacturing enterprises. Digital technologies improve supply chain performance by increasing visibility, stability, efficiency, and flexibility, while also helping to prevent supply chain disruptions. Furthermore, supply chain management is identified as a critical link in the development process of manufacturing enterprises.The study also confirms that supply chain dynamic capability plays a mediating role in the relationship between supply chain digital transformation and competitive advantage, enabling enterprises to effectively leverage digital technologies. Additionally, environmental uncertainty is found to moderately influence the relationship between digital transformation and competitive advantage.These findings provide valuable insights for industry professionals and policymakers in overcoming challenges and seizing opportunities associated with digital transformation in the manufacturing sector.
