Rp-The interactive effect of technological change on the relationship between lean manufacturing practices and environmental performance An analytical .pdf

The current study aims to test the interactive effect of technological change and the extent of its contribution to strengthening the relationship between lean manufacturing practices and environmental performance. The problem was summarized with a set of questions, the most important of which was: Does technological change have a modifying role in the relationship between lean manufacturing practices and environmental performance? The lean manufacturing variable was measured through six dimensions (pull production – continuous flow – reducing preparation time – statistically controlling the process – comprehensive productive maintenance – employee participation). The variable of technological change is measured through two dimensions (technical complexity – systemic transformation). While the environmental performance variable was measured through (operations performance – creativity performance). The study presented a theoretical framework for lean manufacturing, technological change, and environmental performance, and then analyzed the relationship between them through the opinions of a sample of decision makers in the company and the research community through the use of the analytical research approach. The sample consisted of (192) decision makers, and for the purpose of analyzing the data, a set of statistical methods available in the statistical program (SPSS v.27) was used. The study reached a set of results, the most important of which was (the interest of the study company in applying and implementing the principles and techniques of technological change at the field level that would enhance the impact of lean manufacturing on environmental performance). The study presented a set of recommendations, including (calling on the General Company for the Automotive Industry to increase interest in all dimensions of lean manufacturing and encouraging work on its contents and enhancing them at the level of the internal environment of the activities and projects of the company sample of the study).
