Manufacturing companies seek innovative approaches to achieve successful Green and Digital transitions, where adopting lean production is one alternative. However, further investigation required formulate the strategy with practical inputs identify what digital technologies could be applied which principles for environmental benefits. Therefore, this study first conducted a case in three collect practice-based data. A complementary literature review was then carried out, investigating existing frameworks complementing practices of digitalized implementations resulting impact. Consequently, Internet Things related connection-level were identified as key facilitators implementations, specifically visualization, communication, poka-yoke, leading Furthermore, framework DIgitalization Supports Environmental sustainability through Lean (DISEL) proposed help manufacturing opportunities digitalizing sustainability, thus enabling twin transitions being resilient.
