Abstract

Government and digital solution providers are important subjects involved in the digital transformation of construction enterprises. To explore the impact of government and digital solution providers on the digital transformation and development of construction enterprises, this study establishes a three-party evolutionary game model based on evolutionary game theory. At the same time, the system dynamics method is used to dynamically simulate the game process. The simulation results show that appropriate government subsidies and the establishment of a scientific and effective punishment mechanism can promote the digital transformation of construction enterprises. The impact of the collaborative income distribution coefficient on the strategic choice of construction enterprises and digital solution providers should be determined according to the actual situation, and the government only plays a regulatory role. Therefore, only by reasonably dividing the collaborative income distribution coefficient between the main bodies can we promote the digital transformation of construction enterprises to evolve into an ideal cooperation strategy.
