Production Competence and Business Strategy: Do They Affect Business Performance?
研究了生产竞争力如何影响企业财务绩效，并分析了商业战略的直接和调节作用，基于家具行业65家企业的数据。
ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is threefold. First, a comprehensive measure of production competence that assesses the level of support that manufacturing provides for the strategic objectives of a firm is developed. Second, hypotheses relating production competence to several financial measures of business performance are tested using data from a large sample of firms ( n =65) in the furniture industry. Third, the impact of business strategy both directly on performance and as a moderating variable in relation to production competence is analyzed. The results of the study suggest that production competence may have more of an effect on business performance for certain strategies than for others.
