Abstract

PurposeThe tightening of environmental measures and policies in various countries around the world is forcing manufacturing companies, particularly those that make up the automotive industry, to improve their production processes, through the implementation of approaches such as lean production (LP) and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies, to reduce industrial waste. However, the literature indicates that the implementation of LP and I4.0 does not always lead to an improvement in the level of operational performance (OP). Therefore, this study analyzes the effects of the implementation of LP practices and I4.0 on a green supply chain (GSC) and the operational performance of manufacturing companies in the Mexican automotive industry.Design/methodology/approachA theoretical research framework consisting of six hypotheses was developed and validated by applying partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and using a sample of 460 companies from the Mexican automotive industry.FindingsThe results show that the level of OP of manufacturing companies increases substantially with the implementation of LP and I4.0 practices, as well as a GSC.Practical implicationsManagers of manufacturing companies will be able to use the results of this study to improve their production systems and to demonstrate the effects of these practices on OP.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the literature on LP and I4.0 by providing robust empirical evidence of the positive effects of implementing these approaches on the GSC and OP of manufacturing companies.

绿色供应链中精益生产与工业4.0的融合是否会产生更好的运营绩效?

目的世界各国收紧环境措施和政策，迫使制造公司，特别是汽车行业的制造公司，通过实施精益生产（LP）和工业4.0（I4.0）技术等方法来改进生产流程，以减少工业废物。然而，文献表明，LP和I4.0的实施并不总是能提高运营绩效（OP）水平。因此，本研究分析了LP实践和I4.0的实施对绿色供应链（GSC）和墨西哥汽车行业制造公司运营绩效的影响。设计/方法/方法通过应用偏最小二乘结构方程建模（PLS-SEM）并使用来自墨西哥汽车行业的460家公司的样本，开发并验证了由六个假设组成的理论研究框架。结果表明，制造企业的OP水平随着LP和I4.0实践的实施而显著提高，以及GSC。实际含义制造公司的经理将能够利用这项研究的结果来改进他们的生产系统，并证明这些实践对OP的影响。原始性/价值这项研究通过提供强有力的经验证据来证明在GSC和制造公司的OP。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management (JMTM) aspires to be the premier destination for impactful manufacturing-related research. JMTM provides comprehensive international coverage of topics pertaining to the management of manufacturing technology, focusing on bridging theoretical advancements with practical applications to enhance manufacturing practices. JMTM seeks articles grounded in empirical evidence, such as surveys, case studies, and action research, to ensure relevance and applicability. All submissions should include a thorough literature review to contextualize the study within the field and clearly demonstrate how the research contributes significantly and originally by comparing and contrasting its findings with existing knowledge. Articles should directly address management of manufacturing technology and offer insights with broad applicability.
