Digital technology is a new driving force to promote the evolution of industrial chain and value chain, can the logistics industry realize quality and efficiency through the empowerment of digital technology? This article utilizes the annual report data of logistics enterprises from 2012 to 2021, constructs and measures a dictionary of digital technology development level of logistics enterprises based on Python, and uses BCC model and Malmquist index model to analyze and group comparison the operational efficiency of sample enterprises, in order to test the impact of digital technology development level on the operational efficiency of logistics enterprises.. The results of the study show that (1) with the improvement of the development level of digital technology of logistics enterprises, the static efficiency represented by comprehensive efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency have all gained a significant improvement, and the number of effective companies in DEA is positively proportional to the level of digital technology; (2) in terms of the dynamic efficiency represented by technological progress and total factor productivity, the above positive relationship is also significant, especially in 2017 After 2017, the "efficiency" effect is very obvious, indicating that with the increase in the breadth and depth of the application of digital technology in the logistics industry, the effect of improving the operational efficiency of logistics enterprises will be further strengthened.
