In today’s world, corporate sustainability has become a crucial aspect of doing business. Manufacturing industries are giving more emphasis on technology management (TM) and corporate sustainability performance (CSP) due to the growing need for recognition to operate in environmentally and socially responsible ways and remain economically viable. By focusing on TM and CSP, companies can reduce environmental impacts, and improve social performance, while enhancing long-term financial stability. In the modern era, the advantages of technology and Total Quality Management (TQM) practices are well-known, but their role in CSP is not clearly explored. This study aims to assess the impact of TM and TQM on CSP with respect to the Iron and Steel industry in India. A multistage sampling technique was adopted, and data was collected from 514 respondents for this study. Structural equation modelling technique was used to determine the interrelations among TM, TQM and CSP. The study finds that TQM and TM substantially impact CSP and each dimension of CSP (environmental, social and economic). Furthermore, path analysis was performed considering TQM as a moderator. The result reveals that TQM considerably moderates the link between TM and CSP in the Iron and Steel industry. Finally, the study offers practical implications for the executives who are mainly accountable for implementing sustainability with regard to TQM and TM.
