ABSTRACT: Research Objectives: This research examines the effect of digital supply chain technology (DSCT) on supply chain resilience (SCR) and its impact on supply chain performance (SCP) in the context of the Industrial sector in Egypt. Research Population: The researcher used the simple random sampling method for a group of large-sized industrial companies that use digital technology in managing their supply chain. The researcher chose these companies because they were exposed to numerous disruptive events that affected their supply chain performance, necessitating support to enhance their supply chain resilience, particularly through digital supply chain technology. Research Sample: Stratified sampling is the most suitable for this research since the sample-choosing process relied on the characteristics needed for the sample to be random. In this study, the target respondents are personnel responsible for their company’s supply chain or those in a higher position of control over the business operation. Source of Collecting Primary Data: The researcher used a survey questionnaire as one of the methods applied in collecting primary data. (Dalati & Marx Gómez, 2018). Analysis Collecting Data: Analysis and interpretation of the statistical data resulting from regression analysis and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using SPSS and AMOS programs. Findings: This research confirmed that there is a significant effect of Digital Supply Chain Technology (DSCT) on Supply Chain Performance (SCP), a significant effect of Digital Supply Chain Technology (DSCT) on Supply chain Resilience (SCR), a significant effect of Supply chain Resilience (SCR) on the Supply Chain Performance (SCP), in addition, Supply chain resilience (SCR) has a mediating role in the relationship between digital supply chain technology (DSCT) and supply chain performance (SCP). Recommendations: Digital supply chain technology and supply chain resilience become vital components for achieving a high performance of the supply chain. So it has become very important that industrial companies invest in obtaining and applying digital supply chain technology and adopting and applying supply chain resilience principles. By using the tools of digital supply chain technology to enhance supply chain resilience, industrial companies can support and enhance their supply chain performance, therefor organizations can increase efficiency, reduce risks, and create a more sustainable future. Also, this research is recommended for further studies in other sectors like service companies, to study the effect of digital supply chain technology and supply chain resilience on other aspects of the supply chain like sustainability.
