Digital maturity has become a decisive determinant of enterprise competitiveness in transition economies, yetfirms in Uzbekistan lack a nationally calibrated instrument for measuring how far their digital capabilities have advancedand how those capabilities convert into market advantage. This article develops and tests an Enterprise Digital MaturityIndex (EDMI) built from six dimensions: digital strategy and leadership, business processes and infrastructure, data managementand analytics, digital human capital, customer and market interface, and cybersecurity and digital governance.Drawing on survey evidence from 214 industrial and service enterprises, the study applies expert weighting, reliabilitytesting, k-means cluster classification and multiple regression analysis. Results show that a one-point gain in the EDMI issignificantly associated with improved competitiveness, that data analytics and digital human capital carry the strongestcoefficients, and that isolated infrastructure spending yields comparatively weak returns. A four-block mechanism forembedding maturity diagnostics into national digitalisation policy is proposed.
