Purpose This study developed a theoretical model to test the relationship between digital capability and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) its effect on innovation performance in small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Design/methodology/approach The proposed was evaluated using partial least-squares structural equation modeling fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. data were obtained from sample of 536 SMEs Chile. Findings presented two dimensions capability: management information communication technologies (ICTs). Management models composed enterprise resource planning customer systems are essential for optimizing organizational management. Meanwhile, ICTs facilitate smooth flow within an organization, leading improved efficiency production processes. I4.0 is encouraged by exposing base such as analytics. These results confirm that influences performance. Practical implications SME managers should encourage development capabilities transition toward I4.0, this can make more competitive innovative changing dynamic scenarios. Social adoption directly affect employment national economic growth. Originality/value Most studies focus factors affecting SMEs’ adoption. They do not, however, address role played current technology firms’
