“…Comparing six different studies on barriers to DT, the organizational aspect plays a major role. Interestingly, the technical aspect is not as present [26]. Often, internal and external views revealed a pattern within barrier classifications.…”

The German engineering sector is one of the most prominent industries in Germany in terms of revenues, the number of employees, and reputation for the "Made in Germany" brand. In this industry, digital transformation (DT) has become a significant trend. DT is more than optimizing internal processes by digital means. It entails the offer of digital services and products and the enhancement of customer experience. Complex barriers need to be overcome to drive this transformation forward. Therefore, our study analysis the organizational barriers to DT within the German engineering industry. We follow a quantitative approach to gain insight on organizational barriers by a comparison of digitalized and less digitalized enterprises and their DTs. Our research demonstrates that digitalized enterprises perceive lower degrees of certain barriers in leadership, culture, employees, and skills, which are essential parts in a socio-technical view. However, there are still barriers that digitalized enterprises are struggling with.

“…This very approach is the basis of study [4], which identifies obstacles to digital transformation and proposes a new strategy "Strategic Action", which can be useful for manufacturing companies to succeed in the process of digital transformation. The limitation of this approach is to use only the national aspects of strategic development based on digitalization, at a time when globalization is actively taking place.…”

“…According to the review results [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13], it can be concluded that most of the scientific works are devoted to the study of digitalization at the national level, as well as the transformation processes of business and production structures. It is established that the analysis, and accordingly the evaluation of the effectiveness of digital transformation of structures of different forms of ownership, is paid insufficient attention due to the lack of clear methodological provisions of this process.…”

The list, nature, and directions in changing the business processes of public corporations due to digital transformation have been determined. The main digital technologies that are used by public corporations operating in the basic sectors of the national economy were grouped. It has been proven that one of the most important criteria for digital transformation is the level of information transparency. A morphological matrix of digital transformation of public corporations has been built and the positions of the latter in the process under study have been determined. Based on the results of the matrix assessment, it was concluded that the most attention is attracted by the digitalization processes in corporations-outsiders. This is because this position is characterized by a high level of digital maturity but a low level of transparency. To ensure a high level of transparency, it seems appropriate for these companies to introduce new digital technologies. This paper analyzes those endogenous and exogenous factors that promote or block the process of introducing digital technologies in public corporations. It was found that at the level of public corporations, there are significant resource constraints, which are manifested in the lack of funds for the introduction of digital technologies. Another significant obstacle is the psychological barriers associated with the unwillingness to use digital technologies in the work process. The generalization of the efficiency indicators of business processes and criteria for factor conditions of digital transformation has made it possible to identify the main components of the system model of digitalization of public corporations. Considering the above, an authentic system model of digitalization of the public corporate sector is proposed. It seems appropriate to use the model to determine the effect of the introduction of digital technologies in the public corporate sector.

“…One of the phenomenal developments in science and technology in the 21st century is the 4.0 industrial revolution (Hussin, 2018;Miranda et al, 2021;Willya et al, 2019). Digitalization in all fields of activity and work is the main characteristic of this era (Jones, Hutcheson, & Camba, 2021;Lange, Pohl, & Santarius, 2020;Pershina, Soppe, & Thune, 2019). These characteristics have disrupted conventional technology in work and replaced it with new digital technology (Ivanov, Dolgui, & Sokolov, 2019).…”

One of the needs for competence in the world of work in the 21st century and the era of the industrial revolution 4.0. is competence in using digital technology. Vocational education is required to provide digital competencies to students through their learning. The maturity level of digital technology competence is divided into five levels, namely caring, literacy, capability, creativity, and being critical of using digital technology. This study aims to analyze the maturity level of vocational education teachers and students in mastering digital technology in learning. The survey research uses a design developed by Rea & Parker. A total of 233 vocational high school students were included as the research sample. Data were collected using a questionnaire technique with a four Likert scale questionnaire instrument. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics t test. The results show that the maturity level of digital technology for teachers and students is sequential, starting from awareness, literacy, capability, creativity, and being critical of using digital technology. All levels of maturity are included in the low category. Various trainings and learning innovations that are relevant to the relevance of digital technology mastery competencies are very important to be improved.
