Relationships between implementation of TQM, JIT, and TPM and manufacturing performance
研究同时实施全面质量管理、准时制生产和全面生产维护三种制造程序，发现它们的实践具有兼容性，且制造绩效与这些程序的社会和技术实践实施水平相关。
Abstract Research on Total Quality Management (TQM), Just‐in‐Time (JIT) and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) generally investigates the implementation and impact of these manufacturing programs in isolation. However, many researchers believe and argue conceptually the value of understanding the joint implementation and effect of manufacturing programs. This study investigates the practices of the three programs simultaneously. We find that there is evidence supporting the compatibility of the practices in these programs and that manufacturing performance is associated with the level of implementation of both socially‐ and technically‐oriented practices of the three programs.
