With the rapid development and application of emerging technologies, digital transformation has become a crucial approach for enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and achieve sustainable development. In this context, conducting a multi - dimensional analysis of digital transformation performance holds significant theoretical and practical value. This study aims to explore the impacts of corporate network capability, social capital, technological capability, and digital capability on corporate digital performance. The research findings indicate that corporate network capability, social capital, and technological capability have a significant positive impact on digital capability, and they indirectly promote the improvement of digital performance through digital capability. Digital capability plays a key role in enhancing enterprise operation efficiency and innovation ability, and has a significant positive impact on digital performance. Theoretically, this study enriches the multi - dimensional analysis framework in the field of digital transformation, especially providing new insights into the action mechanisms of technology, networks, and social capital. In practice, the research results offer important management implications for corporate managers, emphasizing the importance of strengthening network capability building, enhancing technological capability, cultivating digital capability, and optimizing the utilization of social capital, so as to better promote the digital transformation of enterprises and achieve higher digital performance.
