Özet:

The paper aims to develop an econometric model for the routine diagnosis of enterprises' level of readiness for digital transformation (DT) on the example of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam. The use of questionnaires allowed obtaining quantitative estimates of SMEs' level of readiness for DT in Vietnam. Factor analysis with the principal component method determines the list of factors of SMEs' readiness for DT. The ranges of the level of preparedness in Vietnam were determined, resulting in the classification of enterprises in the groups of "Newcomers," "Learners," and "Leaders" according to their use of digital technology and smart manufacturing. The integral index made it possible to quantify the impact of DT's readiness on SMEs' sustainability. The study results revealed that the nature of the impact depends on the level of SMEs' readiness for DT.
