Abstract

This paper provides an in-depth discussion of the background, motivation, key paths, landing programs, and practical effects of digital transformation in small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs). The challenges enterprises face, such as increased market competition and diversified customer demands, clarify the necessity and urgency of digital transformation. Through literature review and case analysis, it is analyzed that small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs) need to expand their business markets, improve production efficiency, optimize management processes, and enhance market competitiveness through digital transformation. The analysis summarizes the challenges in the digital transformation process of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs). It proposes specific transformation paths and practical coping strategies to serve as valuable references for small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs) that are about to be or are in the process of transformation.
