In the dynamically changing automotive industry, digital transformation is reshaping supply chain dynamics, necessitating agile, data-driven, and highly responsive operations. While traditional supply chain maturity models have provided valuable frameworks for assessment and improvement, they frequently lack the necessary capabilities to effectively address the unique complexities and advantages of the digital age. In the present study, a novel framework is introduced for the assessment of the digital supply chain maturity of automotive companies. In summary, we have defined ten dimensions and six levels for evaluating digital supply chain maturity. The model enables automotive companies to assess and elevate their digital maturity processes, aligning with industry-specific requirements. This paper demonstrates the critical importance of a dedicated digital maturity framework through a review of current models and benchmark against leading automotive firms, providing valuable insights and strategic guidance for the enhancement, development, and optimization of digital capabilities across various stages and stakeholders within the automotive supply chain to drive innovation, improve operational efficiency.
