cAll digital maturity subscales were developed based on the literature review and expert interviews. Thus, Cronbach α for the original studies cannot be shown.

dAs the subscales Interoperability, Strategy, and Data Analytics only comprise 2 items, an interpretation of their internal consistencies should not be made.
