The manufacturing industry,as a core material production department,is the foundation of the real economy and also a key carrier for the development of new-quality productive forces.Exploring the formation path of new quality productivity in manufacturing enterprises is not only a key practical problem,but also an urgent scientific problem.Based on the connotation of new-quality productive forces,this paper adopted the methods of necessary condition analysis(NCA)and fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA),taking 289 A-share manufacturing enterprises among the top 500 as examples,and discussed the configuration path of new quality productivity of manufacturing enterprises,which is formed by the interaction of conditions and factors under the three levels of technological revolutionary breakthrough,innovative allocation of production factors and deep in-dustrial transformation and upgrading.The research findings are as follows:First,there are no necessary conditions for the for-mation of new-quality productive forces in manufacturing enterprises.Second,the formation paths of new-quality productive forces in manufacturing enterprises can be classified into four types:technology resource allocation-driven type,technology en-dowment synergy-driven type,digitalization-driven type,and industrial agglomeration development-driven type,among which the digital technology-oriented type is the most common.Third,combined with the non-high-level new-quality productive force con-figuration,institutional innovation,as a core condition,runs through the configuration results of high/non-high-level new-quality productive forces.Green technology innovation and institutional innovation are important reasons for the failure of manufacturing enterprises to form new-quality productive forces.The research conclusion will be conducive to understanding and deepening the complex mechanism of the formation path of new quality productivity in manufacturing enterprises,promoting the structural upgra-ding of manufacturing industry and providing internal driving force for high-quality development.
