DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN MANUFACTURING SMEs: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS USING VOSviewer
Deleted Journal(2022)
Abstract
The present paper aims to identify the main trends and gaps in the digitalization of manufacturing SMEs. The most significant literature on this emergent theme was gathered through a criterion search, resulting in discovering 4060 related documents. To narrow this considerable number of documents, a bibliometric analysis was performed. A database was exported from Clarivates’ Web of Science for clusters analysis in VOSviewer’s software. Afterward, it was possible to identify the top authors and documents. Four trends were identified: one Asian, headed by China; another Anglo-Saxon, led by the USA; and two European trends, run by Italy and Germany. Furthermore, were identified two research gaps: (1) The development of pro-environmental technology and (2) digital readiness models for manufactur-ing SMEs.
