Description
Summary:碩士 === 大同大學 === 事業經營研究所碩士在職專班 === 91 === The intense global competition of the past decade has led many organizations to create cooperative and mutually beneficial partnerships with suppliers, distributors, retailers, and other firms within the supply chain. The objective of those partnerships has been to make more effective operation with greater design flexibility. The benefits of introducing JIT Purchasing are supported by ample literature that includes shorter lead times and improved productivity for organization. It is worth to discover and notice whether the implementation of SCM and JIT should improve buyers’ manufacturing performances. In this study, it is to clarify the relationship among Supply Chain Management, Buyer JIT Purchasing, Supplier JIT Manufacturing Performance and Buyer Manufacturing Performance in industries. To make this study more representative, it aims at the manufacturers in Taiwan whose stocks are listed or sold over-the-counter as research subjects. This study analyzes the data with descriptive statistics analysis and reliability test by SPSS 8.0 and confirmatory factor analysis & structural model analysis by AMOS 3.6. According to the results of the best fitting model, this study has the following conclusions: (1) SCM has a significant positive impact on JIT Purchasing. Therefore, the buyers will improve the JIT Purchasing implementation if they implement SCM successfully. (2) SCM has a significant positive impact on MP. Therefore, the buyers will improve the JIT Purchasing implementation if they implement SCM successfully. (3) JIT Purchasing has a significant positive impact on suppliers’ JIT supply performance. Therefore, the buyers will improve suppliers’ JIT supply performance if they implement JIT Purchasing successfully. (4) Suppliers’ JIT supply performance has a significant positive impact on buyers’ MP. Therefore, the suppliers will improve buyers’ MP if they improve JIT supply performance successfully. These practices ranked in the degrees of their factor loadings are as follows: (1) SCM practices consist of four measures: building cooperating partners relationship, good mobile and coordinated goods transportation, suppliers managements and evaluations, and information sharing. (2) Buyer’s JIT Purchasing practices consist of two measures: core JIT and facilitating JIT. (3) Suppliers’ JIT supply performances consist of three measures: quality performance, time performance, and customer’s satisfaction performance. From the perspective of implementing of SCM and JIT Purchasing when they put into practice these buyers’ performance is expected to increase.
