The improvement of enterprise ESG performance is one of the key driving forces to achieve the goal of economic and social green development. There is a gap between knowledge and practice in the ESG performance of Chinese enterprises, and digital transformation (DT) provides new ideas for ESG development. The research purpose of this paper is to explore the impact mechanism of DT on ESG and the specific path of DT to drive ESG. It provides a reference for listed enterprises to rely on DT to empower their sustainable development capability. This paper takes the panel data of A-share listed enterprises from 2011 to 2021 as the sample and measures the core indicators using the text mining method, modified Jones model, and Roy-Chowdhury model. On this basis, using a combination of econometric models and qualitative comparative analysis, we empirically analyze the impact mechanisms of DT on ESG as well as the specific grouping paths that drive ESG performance. The main conclusions are shown as follows. First, DT can significantly reduce ESG, with an impact coefficient of − 0.013, which is significant at the 5% level. It reflects that the DT of enterprises at this stage has certain deficiencies. There is a matching lag in the enterprise's internal organizational resources. The entry of digital technology will have a certain impact on traditional operations, and the high uncertainty of DT adds some hidden costs to the enterprise. Secondly, there is an indirect suppression effect of accrued earnings management (AEM) in the transmission mechanism of DT affecting ESG. It is verified that DT can reduce information asymmetry and inhibit EM activities, thus reducing the impact on ESG. Finally, a total of six configurations achieved high ESG valuations. High technology practice-low performance manipulation; digital intelligence-low performance manipulation; digital intelligence-digital resources; digital resources-inadequate digital infrastructure.; high technology practice-bottom technology deficiency; digital intelligence-high performance manipulation. Through configuration analysis, the suppression effect of EM is further verified. The lack of AEM is usually the core condition of the high-valuation group. Meanwhile, digital intelligence, digital resources, and digital technology practice can drive the improvement of enterprise ESG. The instrumental variables approach and robustness tests support these findings.

How to ensure the normal production of industries in an uncertain emergency environment has aroused a lot of concern in society. Selecting the best emergency material suppliers using the multicriteria group decision making (MCGDM) method will ensure the normal production of industries in this environment. However, there are few studies in emergency environments that consider the impact of the decision order of decision makers (DMs) on the decision results. Therefore, in order to fill the research gap, we propose an extended MCGDM method, whose main steps include the following: Firstly, the DMs give their assessment of all alternatives. Secondly, we take the AHP method and entropy weight method to weight the criteria and the DMs. Thirdly, we take the intuitionistic fuzzy hybrid priority weight average (IFHPWA) operator we proposed to aggregate evaluation information and take the TOPSIS method to rank all the alternatives. Finally, the proposed method is applied in a case to prove its practicability and effectiveness. The proposed method considers the influence of the decision order of the DMs on the decision results, which improves the accuracy and efficiency of decision-making results.

PurposeThis study investigates the impact of supply chain governance (SCG, which includes relational governance and contractual governance) on supply chain resilience (SCR) using the information processing theory. Moreover, the study also examines the mediating role of information processing capability and the moderating role of digital technology (DT) deployment.Design/methodology/approachA total of 288 questionnaires were collected from the Chinese manufacturing industry, and hierarchical regression was used to empirically test the proposed model.FindingsThis study reveals that SCG positively impacts SCR. Moreover, information processing capability plays a mediating role between SCG and SCR. Furthermore, the breadth of DT deployment positively moderates the effect of relational governance on information processing capability, and the depth of DT deployment positively moderates the effects of both relational governance and contractual governance on information processing capability.Originality/valueThis study offers a novel perspective that helps to understand the importance of the supply chain-wide information acquired by SCG in respect of improving SCR. Furthermore, this article extends the application of information processing theory by providing empirical evidence of the mediating role of information processing capability and elucidating the moderating role of DT deployment.
