The flowchart starts with a text box on the left labeled “Digital transformation.” A dashed rectangle in the center titled “Impact mechanism framework” is divided into two sections labeled “Internal” and “External.” In the “Internal” section, two stacked text boxes are labeled “Technology” and “Organization.” Two arrows from “Technology” lead to two text boxes on the right labeled “Enhancing innovation effectiveness” and “Improving labor productivity.” An arrow from “Organization” leads to a text box labeled “Increasing organizational management efficiency.” In the “External” section, a text box is labeled “External Network.” Two arrows from “External Network” lead to two text boxes on the right labeled “Reducing supply chain concentration” and “Strengthening market recognition.” Three arrows from “Digital transformation” point to “Technology,” “Organization,” and “External Network,” respectively. An arrow labeled “H 1” from “Digital transformation” leads to a text box labeled “Manufacturing enterprise performance” on the far right. An arrow labeled “H 2” from “Enhancing innovation effectiveness” leads to “Manufacturing enterprise performance.” An arrow labeled “H 3” from “Improving labor productivity” leads to “Manufacturing enterprise performance.” An arrow labeled “H 4” from “Increasing organizational management efficiency” leads to “Manufacturing enterprise performance.” An arrow labeled “H 5” from “Reducing supply chain concentration” leads to “Manufacturing enterprise performance.” An arrow labeled “H 6” from “Strengthening market recognition” leads to “Manufacturing enterprise performance.”The “Technology-Organization-External Network” framework.
