[en] The study investigates the relationship between digitalization and
sustainability in maintenance decision-making. The analysis relies
on raw and coded data from a questionnaire-based survey targeting
manufacturing companies in the Republic of Serbia. Our findings
suggest a strong positive association between digitalization and
sustainability (Kendall’s τb = 0.324, Z = 2.681, p = 0.007),
demonstrating that digitalization plays a vital role in adopting
sustainable maintenance performance metrics. In addition, factor
analysis leveraging Multiple Correspondence Analysis suggests an
association between technology, digitalization and maintenance of
sustainable responsibility levels, providing additional evidence
about digitalisation's role in adopting a sustainable maintenance
approach.
