Abstract: Promoting the integration of digitalization and greenification is an objective requirement for enterprises to achieve green and low-carbon transformation, and it is also an essential part of promoting the comprehensive green transformation of the entire economy and society. As the micro-level drivers of ecological progress and economic growth, enterprises should implement a sustainable digital transformation strategy oriented by the integration of digitalization and greenification. This is a key measure to achieve the “dual-carbon” goals and increase benefits. Based on the theoretical perspective of resource orchestration and taking Schneider Electric as a case study, this paper explores how manufacturing enterprises can orchestrate resources and form corresponding organizational capabilities to achieve sustainable digital transformation. The research findings indicate that the sustainable digital transformation of manufacturing enterprises is an iterative process of gradually realizing technological sustainability, economic sustainability, and environmental sustainability. During this process, enterprises go through the stages of resource development and capability generation, resource revitalization and capability response, and resource linking and capability leap. On this basis, this paper constructs a process model for manufacturing enterprises to achieve sustainable digital transformation. This paper opens the “black box” of the sustainable digital transformation process for manufacturing enterprises and provides theoretical support for enterprises to promote the integrated development of digitalization and greenification.
