“…21 factors are proposed as main sustainable product indicators and prioritized them using ISM approach. Vinodh and Joy (2012) have done a study on the sustainable manufacturing practices across industrial sectors and to identify the critical factors for its success implementation and shown the correlation between sustainable manufacturing practices and organizational performance among the industries being surveyed. Govindan et al (2014) analysed the drivers of sustainable manufacturing.…”

The modern manufacturing systems recognize the importance of adopting lean and sustainable manufacturing principles. Especially, Indian automotive component manufacturing organizations are interested in adopting the integrated lean sustainable manufacturing system. An appropriate methodology is required for enabling the organizations to identify the dominant factors. In this context, this article presents the interpretive structural modelling approach for identifying the mutual relationship among factors influencing the integrated lean sustainable manufacturing system. From the literature study and survey conducted among Indian automotive component manufacturing organizations, 25 influencing factors have been identified. Based on the study, top-management commitment in adopting integrated lean sustainable manufacturing and environmental knowledge occupy the bottom level of model which shows that it has more driving power. Efforts are being taken to implement the factors in the surveyed organizations.

“…Effective sustainable manufacturing practices have now become a potentially valuable way of securing competitive advantage and improving organizational performance (Vinodh & Joy, 2011). However, in spite of the fact that sustainable manufacturing has been frequently promoted as a means of improving business competitiveness, little empirical evidence exists in the literature validating a positive link with organizational performance (Vinodh & Joy, 2011). As such, the ever-present question is whether there is in fact a direct positive relationship between the adoption of sustainability practices, business performance and competitive advantage; that is, whether companies emphasizing a sustainability strategy and adopting sustainability practices outperform other companies that do not.…”

This study aims to empirically test the relationships among the adoption of sustainability practices, business performance and competitive advantage in Caribbean manufacturing firms. Seven dimensions of sustainable manufacturing practices are conceptualized and tested against measures of business performance and competitive advantage. Three hypothesized relationships are tested using the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique. The results show a negative relationship between the adoption of sustainability practices and business performance. We also find that there is no significant relationship between the adoption of sustainability practices and competitive advantage. However, we observe a significant positive relationship between competitive advantage and business performance. Based on these findings, manufacturing firms in developing regions, such as the Caribbean, are advised to pursue sustainability strategy implementation with some vigor, but should base their choices on strategies that will enhance sustainability through improved resource productivity, while improving business performance and competitive advantage.

The growing concern of the negative impact of manufacturing activities on triple bottom line has led researchers to embark on sustainable manufacturing study. Empirical evidence from previous research has demonstrated that sustainable manufacturing is a comprehensive strategy to minimize the negative impact to the environment. However, study on the link of sustainable manufacturing drivers and firm performance in Malaysia remains inconclusive, thus need for further investigation. Moreover, the possible explanation for the inconsistent relationship is due to the difference in firm size of manufacturing firms involved in sustainable manufacturing activities. This research intends to investigate the moderating effect of firm size on the relationship between SM drivers and firm performance. Data was collected from selected industries in manufacturing firms in Malaysia and analyzed with SEM-AMOS. The empirical result revealed that firm size moderates the relationship between market forces and strategic leadership with firm performance. The relationships between policy and regulation and resource availability with firm performance were not significantly moderated by firm size. The results indicate that larger firms will experience a higher rate of firm performance as having advantage of firm size compared to smaller firms.
