This paper presents the results of an empirical study investigating the relationship between Total quality management (TQM) practices, Just-in-time (JIT) production practices, and flexibility performance in manufacturing companies. Correlation and regression analysis are applied to analyze the data collected from 280 manufacturing plants in 12 countries including China, Finland, German, Italy, Israel, Japan, Korea, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, United Kingdom, and Vietnam from 2013 to 2015 in the framework of a High Performance Manufacturing Project. The analytical results confirm the closed linkage between TQM, JIT production practices and flexibility performance. Moreover, this study indicates that the effect of JIT production practices on flexibility performance can be strengthened with a higher level of TQM practices. The main findings of this study suggest that flexibility performance can be built up by implementing both TQM and JIT production practices, and TQM should be regarded as the platform to maximize the effect of JIT production on flexibility performance.

As we know the main value to be achieved by a company is to meet the desires of its customers. Total Quality Management represents the creation of value by basing on the quality provided to consumers, while the Just In Time creating value based on a given speed. Manufacturing industry is an industry that is becoming an important part of the national economy, but some manufacturing companies in Indonesia implementing TQM and JIT just still a concept. This study tries to analyze the impact of the implementation of Total Quality Management and Just In Time for Delivery Performance. The variables used in  this  study include  Total  Quality Management  and  Just  In  Time  as  anindependent variable, and Delivery Performance as the dependent variable. The research methodology used in this study is a survey method using a questionnaire as a data collection tool. This study used a sample 6 manufacturing company located in Bogor and Tangerang. The results of the analysis using regression model showed that Total Quality Management and Just In Time has a significant impact on Delivery Performance.

Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir as relações existentes entre as Estratégias de Produção e os programas TQM (Total Quality Management ou Gestão da Qualidade Total) e JIT (Just-In-Time), destacando a importância da integração destes programas às Estratégias de Produção nas empresas. O estudo desta integração demonstrou que os programas TQM e JIT, embora possam trabalhar separadamente, são complementares e devem estar alinhados com as Estratégias de Produção a fim de promover melhorias na função produção. Além disso, será verificado de que modo a empresa automobilística condiciona a difusão das estratégias e programas adotados em sua cadeia de fornecedores. Serão apresentados os conceitos básicos e questões teóricas relacionados à Estratégia de Produção, ao TQM e ao JIT, e um estudo de caso nas três empresas.

Abstract Understanding the schemes of Small and Medium Enterprises (SME’s) managerial capability is becoming important aspects today. Implementing proper strategies and internal policy may create a significant change in SME’s performance. Total Quality Management (TQM) has been being a one of specific measurement on organizational performance. This research was proposed to understand the factor that can affect the TQM’s performance in SME’s by identifying the two factors that can change it. Based on the recent studies, the developed model was employed PLSSEM to analyze the data by total respondent 95 respondent consist of owner and manager. The sample was taken in the area of Sasirangan SME’s in Banjarmasin, Kalimantan Selatan province, Indonesia. Sasirangan is a local fabric developed by its ancestor. The population of Sasirangan SME’s was huge in amount. The results of these studies indicate that both motivation and employee performance can increase the TQM in the SME’s which one of them has a more significant effect. The complete description of finding in this research will be discussed in this research.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to reveal and examine the nature of costing systems design alongside the usage of new manufacturing practices in Jordanian Manufacturing Companies. Design/Methodology/Approach: For carrying out the study, 86 managers from 43 manufacturing companies received the study questionnaire from which 56 were valid for data analysis. The study results are presented using multiple regression analysis. Findings: The results using multiple regressions indicate that Just in Time (JIT), Total Quality Management (TQM) and Product Diversity (PD) has a significant influence on costing systems design. Implications: This study provides evidence on the importance of using management practices as a driver for companies to use a broader perspective for designing costing systems. Responding managers have now empirical evidence regarding the manufacturing practices needed to design costing systems to their companies. Originality/Value: This is the first attempt to examine the manufacturing practices as a driver for cost system design. The study also provides significant managerial implications on how to use manufacturing practices to ensure better cost system design.

The aim of the study is find out the impact of applying different total quality management (TQM) practices on the performance of employees in the Lebanese industrial sector. The implementation of total quality management in Lebanese companies is very narrow where few companies work to apply Total Quality Management elements and concepts in its operations. Sanita is a Lebanese company that has applied the principles of total quality management relatively in all of its operations, so it has a large share of its products in the Lebanese market. In this quantitative survey designed study, 160 self-administered questionnaires were distributed for employees working at different career level (Top level management / Middle level management / Supervisor / Operator /technician / other workers) in Sanita main branch (Halat -Lebanon) and Sanita factory (Zouk Mosbeh -Lebanon). The survey concluded various questions related to the dependent variable employee performance and the independent variable related to practices of total quality management (leadership, teamwork, training and education, empowerment, communication). Using the quantitative correlation Pearson test, a strong influence emerged for the implementation of TQM principles on the performance of employees at Sanita and its factories; thus accepting the main alternative hypothesis.
