Abstract: Abstract In the context of digitalization, firms are facing many chances and challenges brought by digital transformation, all of which have an impact on their production and operation. This paper aims to delve into the impact of digital capabilities on environmental performance and explore the mediating effect of green innovation by analyzing the service-oriented manufacturers with 341 firms with some key findings. Digital collaboration capability significantly improves firms’ environmental performance, while digital transformation and stakeholder pressure do not significantly improve environmental performance. Digital transformation, stakeholder pressure, and digital collaboration capability all enhance environmental performance by enhancing firms’ green innovation. We suggest service-oriented manufacturers developing an in-depth digital transformation, enhancing digital collaboration capabilities, and establishing the digital channels for stakeholders.
