Abstract

This study explored the correlation between system integration of automation and autonomation supply chain strategies and manufacturing firms' operational performance with a human touch, due to a dearth of studies in this area. Based on this limitation, the researchers sought to investigate this lacuna thereby bridging a knowledge gap. The study's priorities were to find out how system integration, agility and leanness of automation and supply chain strategy affect and enhance manufacturing firms' operational performance. In course of the study, data were obtained from 415 employees of manufacturing firms in Nigeria with the help of a structured questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistical approaches, as well as OLS estimation techniques, were used to evaluate the data. As a consequence of the studies, it was discovered that system integration of automation and autonomation supply chain strategies has a significant relationship with operational performance of manufacturing firms.
