Efficiency evaluation and influencing factors of Industrial Internet enabling manufacturing industry

Abstract The industrial Internet is an important support for the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry. In the present work, a non-oriented SBM-DEA super-efficiency model is constructed. It takes Jiangsu Province in China as an example to estimate the efficiency of industrial Internet enabling manufacturing transformation and upgrading and further analyzes the influencing factors of enabling efficiency by using the Tobit model. It shows that the efficiency level of the transformation of the industrial Internet-enabling manufacturing industry varies greatly from place to place, the distribution is unstable, and there is a big contrast with the level of economic development in different places. The number of supporting service institutions, policy support, and the proportion of secondary industry have a significant positive influence on the enabling efficiency of the industrial Internet, while the degree of opening to the outside world has a significant inhibitory effect on the comprehensive efficiency of the industrial Internet.
