Description:
Manufacturing companies are facing rapid and unanticipated changes in their business environment. Agile manufacturing (AM) is a manufacturing paradigm that focuses on smaller scale, modular production facilities, and agile operations capable of dealing with turbulent and changing environments. From several enablers of AM, virtual enterprise (VE) and information technology (IT) were chosen. This empirical study explored the impact of the alignment between VE and IT on business performance in an AM setting. Extensive data collection strategy and several tests are used to establish the reliability and validity of the data collected. Extensive analyses of the data using structural equation molding were performed for five hypotheses. The results indicate that both VE and IT had positive influences on business performance. It was also established that the alignment between VE and IT had a positive impact on business performance. Further, it was shown that the impact of the alignment between VE and IT on business performance was more significant than the impact of VE and IT on business performance individually. In conclusion, the assessment of the results along with future research directions is provided.

Description:
The study empirically explores the supply strategies of European manufacturing firms within the third edition of the International Manufacturing Strategy Survey. Four clusters are identified on the basis of the supplier selection criteria and the integration mechanisms adopted. Two clusters are similar to the Lean and the Agile models, while the other two are more traditional supply strategies, even if they present some advancement compared to the arm's-length supply model. The strategies are then described in terms of contingent and structural factors and manufacturing performance. Lean and Agile strategies outperform the other clusters on many dimensions, while no significant difference emerges between the two in terms of performance.
