Numerous Chinese manufacturing organizations are grappling with the challenge of absorbing and using green information acquisition across the supply chain to achieve excellent firm performance. Utilizing the organizational learning theory's indirect stream of research, we address this research gap by developing a moderated-mediation framework to investigate the impact of green information acquisition and institutional pressure on a firm's performance. Hypotheses are evaluated by taking a sample of 567 manufacturing enterprises in China. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been applied to analyze and investigate the proposed hypotheses. Empirical results indicate that absorptive capacity significantly mediates the relationship between green information acquisition and firm performance. In a similar vein, institutional pressure significantly moderates the relationship between green information acquisition and firm performance. Study findings have essential managerial recommendations for Chinese manufacturing enterprises, proposing that they considerably enhance their absorptive capacity and continuously monitor institutional pressure to reap the advantages of green information acquisition on firm performance.
众多中国制造业组织正面临着在整个供应链中吸收和利用绿色信息获取以实现卓越企业绩效的挑战。利用组织学习理论的间接研究流派，我们通过开发一个有调节的中介框架来研究绿色信息获取和制度压力对企业绩效的影响，从而填补这一研究空白。通过选取中国567家制造企业作为样本对假设进行评估。应用结构方程模型（SEM）来分析和研究提出的假设。实证结果表明，吸收能力显著中介了绿色信息获取与企业绩效之间的关系。同样，制度压力显著调节了绿色信息获取与企业绩效之间的关系。研究结果为中国制造业企业提供了重要的管理建议，建议它们大幅提高吸收能力，并持续监测制度压力，以获取绿色信息获取对企业绩效的益处。
