Abstract:Based on the “Technology-Organization-Environment” theory, this article establishes a multi-factor framework that affects the development of regional service-oriented manufacturing. Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis and input-output analysis methods are applied to study the effective driving paths that lead to the high-quality development of service-oriented manufacturing in different regions, further comparative research is conducted on the paths of leading and catching-up regions based on the digital context. The study has found that: (1)The configuration driving regional service-oriented manufacturing exhibit diversified characteristics, including four configurations, namely “Environment driven with high-quality development of the service industry as the core”, “Organization and environment co-driven with agglomeration of productive service industries as the core”, “Organization led with multi subject collaboration as the core”, and “Multi factor driven with innovation and high-quality development of the service industry as the core”; (2) For digital leading regions, the opening up of the service industry and the high concentration of productive service industries are the core driving factors leading the development of service-oriented manufacturing, and the high-level openness of the service industry is a necessary condition; (3) For digital catch-up areas, in addition to the coupling of productive service industry and opening up of service industry, the two paths of “Organization and environment co-driven with the agglomeration of productive service industry as the core” and “Organization led with the collaboration of multiple entities as the core” can also achieve high-level development of regional service-oriented manufacturing.
