The Moderate Effect of SPC on the Relations Between Practicing JIT and Production Performance

Abstract

Our goal of this study is to confirm whether manufacturing companies’ practicing JIT production system have positive effect on production performances and to confirm that manufacturing companies’ practicing SPC shows positive moderate effect on the relation between practicing JIT and their production performances. Based on empirical study to manufacturing companies nationwide, we can conclude that taking JIT practices of sample companies has positive effect on production performances and, moreover, practicing SPC has positive moderate effect on the relation between JIT practices and production performances. These conclusion represents managerial implication that concurrent practicing JIT and SPC could generate more improved production performances.
