“…Alp et al [1] used a combination of fuzzy AHP and PROMETHEE to identify a suitable location for a bus garage for an Istanbul-based transport company. Vinodh et al [19] applied fuzzy ANP for the selection of an agile concept for a manufacturing organisation. In this study, the authors stressed the importance of selecting the right concept design to improve the agility of the organisation.…”

Manufacturing organisations are witnessing a transformation in the manufacturing paradigm due to the increasing competition. Agile manufacturing (AM) is an operations concept that is intended to improve the competitiveness of firms. When market conditions are unfavourable, a firm needs to stay competitive in order to function well and remain in good health. In such situations, it becomes essential that an organisation optimises its manufacturing processes so that it would adapt to changes in an unpredictable market scenario and remain competitive. AM principles enable an organisation to sustain in the competitive market scenario. Concept selection for an AM system is a typical multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. In order to enhance the effectiveness of concept selection, a unique combination of fuzzy decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL), fuzzy analytical network process (ANP) and fuzzy technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) was used in the study. The study is aimed at selecting the best concept design of an automobile component. The selected design was subjected to implementation in the case organisation.

“…This study also pointed an increase in agility. Vinodh et al [19] applied a scoring model to evaluate the agility of a firm before and after the implementation of total agile design system (TADS). An increase of 10 % had been reported in the firm after the implementation of TADS.…”

“…The technology ones are computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing, rapid prototyping, reverse engineering, information technology, virtual enterprise, etc. (Vinodh, Sundararaj, & Devadasan, 2010). It would be interesting to classify these organizational agility enablers in terms of the impact it can have on the relationships between operational excellence initiatives and sustainability.…”

Many Organizations are implementing operational excellence initiatives to be competitive in the industry. The initial results are very encouraging but subsequently, it was difficult for many organizations to sustain the initial success. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how to implement a sustainable operational excellence initiative in the organization. The study builds a model for sustainability of operational excellence which considers the social, economic and environmental aspect of operational excellence. In addition, organizational culture and agility are found to contribute a major role in sustainable organizational excellence. This is the first study to propose an integrative model for implementing sustainable operational excellence in organizations. Organizations will be able to implement operational excellence initiatives in a sustainable manner if the model of sustainability is followed. Besides, there are research propositions and future research directions to academic researchers. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Antunes et al (2017) defined performance evaluation as “the process to quantify the efficiency and effectiveness of production systems.” Agile manufacturing has been recognized as a promising procedure in achieving greater customer satisfaction and superior business performance by firms. The adoption of agile manufacturing principles helps the organization to reform itself according to the dynamic needs of customers and to reduce the time and cost of the new product and process development (Vinodh et al , 2010). An organization must effectively coordinate among the key enablers of agile manufacturing in dynamic business environment to achieve business competitiveness.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of agile manufacturing practices on business performance of Indian medium and large-scale manufacturing industry. Design/methodology/approach A survey questionnaire was designed to attain the research objectives. Agile manufacturing questionnaire was sent to around 500 randomly selected manufacturing organizations in the northern spectrum of India through e-mails and posts, out of which 154 usable responses have been received. This study investigates the inter-relationships between various agile manufacturing implementation practices and business performance measures using various statistical techniques. This paper deploys Games–Howell hoc test to establish the statistical significance of business performance improvements, progressively accrued over a reasonable period of time, through holistic agile manufacturing implementation. Findings The paper validates the contribution of agile manufacturing toward realization of the significant improvements in various business performance measures such as customer-related achievements, financial achievements, business-related achievements, operational achievements, employee-related achievements, and supplier-related achievements. Further, the discriminant validity test has been used in this paper for classifying highly successful and moderately successful organizations. Research limitations/implications The paper only concentrated on manufacturing organizations in northern India. The results of this paper cannot generalize across all the sectors and spectrum of Indian manufacturing organizations. Originality/value This paper develops an insight into the strong potential of agile manufacturing implementation practices in affecting business performance measures.
