Abstract	Digital transformation has become a strategic priority for organizations seeking to improve competitiveness, operational efficiency, innovation, and long-term sustainability. The rapid development of cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big-data analytics, Internet of Things technologies, digital platforms, automation, and collaborative digital tools has changed how organizations create value and interact with customers, employees, suppliers, and other stakeholders. However, technology adoption alone does not necessarily lead to improved organizational performance. The ability of organizations to convert digital technologies into innovation capability and measurable business outcomes depends on leadership, organizational culture, employee competencies, strategic alignment, and the capacity to manage organizational change. This study examines the relationship between digital transformation, innovation capability, and organizational performance through a qualitative and conceptual analysis of contemporary research. It investigates how digital technologies influence process innovation, product and service innovation, organizational agility, customer experience, operational efficiency, and financial performance. The study further examines innovation capability as a potential mechanism through which digital transformation contributes to organizational performance. A comparative analytical framework is developed to identify the organizational and technological factors that influence successful digital transformation. The findings suggest that organizations with stronger digital capabilities are better positioned to develop new products and services, improve operational processes, respond to market changes, and strengthen customer relationships. Nevertheless, cybersecurity risks, employee resistance, skills shortages, investment costs, legacy systems, and ineffective change management remain significant barriers. The study concludes that sustainable organizational performance requires an integrated approach in which digital transformation is aligned with innovation strategy, organizational capabilities, and human-resource development.
