Abstract: Technological development has experienced exponential growth in recent years, giving rise to important digital transformation processes at the company level. In order to ensure that these digital transformation processes achieve the desired results, it is essential to draw a strategic roadmap of the processes from vision to implementation. This implies combining design and management activities with thought and action abilities. Digital transformation, always complex, becomes less certain and more interesting when considering results related to environmental issues. This study aims to analyze how the combined effect of five variables (digital vision, digital orientation, digital strategy, transformation management intensity, digital management and departmental agility) – related to digital transformation and categorized as design, management, thought and action – lead to environmental performance. The study uses a sample of agro-industrial cooperatives and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. The results of the necessity and sufficiency analysis indicate that some of the design variables (especially digital vision and digital strategy) need to be present to lead to environmental performance. Likewise, the absence of the two management variables (especially digital management transformation) leads to the absence of environmental performance. The paper demonstrates the need to combine design and management activities and thought and action abilities to lead to the presence of environmental performance.
