بررسي تأثير اقدامات مديريت كيفيت زنجيره تأمين بر عملكرد در صنعت خودرو ايران با در نظر گرفتن نقش ميانجي نوآوري

The Impact of Supply Chain Quality Management on Performance Due to Rule of Innovation

هدف از اين تحقيق، بررسي روابط موجود بين اقدامات و عملكرد SCQM و نوآوري است. اين مدل از طريق تحليل مسير با استفاده از داده هاي مقطعي صنعت خودرو ايران طراحي و تست شده است . با استفاده از يك روش كمي، 280 نفر از 500 مدير ارشد و اجرايي در صنعت خودرو ايران در اين نظرسنجي شركت كرده و آن را تكميل نمودند. از طريق مدل سازي معادلات ساختاري (SEM) براي بررسي فرضيه هاي پژوهش و مدل مفروض استفاده شد. اين يافته ها اثر مثبت رويه هاي مديريت كيفيت زنجيره تامين بر نوآوري و عملكرد سازماني را پوشش ميدهند.نتايج حاصل از آناليز نشان مي دهد كه نوآوري تا حدي بر رابطه بين رويه هاي مديريت كيفيت زنجيره تامين و عملكرد سازماني تاثير ميگذارد. همچنين اين مطالعه تاثيرات هاي نظري و تجربي را در پي داشته است. نتايج اين پژوهش مديران را قادر مي سازد به ارزيابي نقاط قوت و ضعف سازمان خود و در نتيجه توسعه استراتژي هاي مناسب در جهت بهبود عملكرد سازماني خود بپردازند .

The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between SCQM practices, performance and innovation. A conceptual model is developed and tested through path analysis using the cross-section data collected from the automotive industry in Iran. Using a quantitative methodology, 280 of 500 senior and executive managers in the automotive industry in Iran participated and completed the survey. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used for data reduction of the entire sample (to purify the scale) and to ascertain whether the survey questions were loaded on their respective dimensions (this was refined and confirmed later by CFA). Besides that, the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to examine the research hypotheses and hypothesized model. The findings support the positive effect of the supply chain quality management practices on innovation and organizational performance. In addition, the results of the analysis also suggest that innovation partially mediates the relationship between supply chain quality management practices and organizational performance. Moreover, this study makes several theoretical and empirical contributions and provides further insights on SCQM practices. Managerial implications are discussed, as well as several potential recommendations for future studies are identified and a conclusion is drawn. The outcomes of this research would enable managers to assess the strengths and weaknesses of their organizations and thus develop appropriate strategies to improve their organizational performance.
