Summary: | Manufacturing companies have as objective the improvement of internal and external processes to increase the competitive advantage. These processes include lean manufacturing practices, rationalization of providers and logistics integration. In this work, these practices and their impact on business performance are analyzed and particularly, the differences between companies applying make-to-order –MTO– and make-to-stock –MTS– are explored, with the data collected from 216 manufacturing companies in Australia. In the results it was found a clear difference of the improvement approach between MTO and MTS companies. The MTO’s companies show a significant impact of logistics integration in business performance, but not of lean manufacturing practices and providers’ rationalization. The situation is completely different for MTS companies, although they achieve significant impact on the internal practices of lean manufacturing and in the rationalization of the providers, they do not achieve it in logistics integration. Furthermore, the distinction between MTO and MTS companies is important when analyzing initiatives to improve the production and supply chains |
