Redesign of enterprise lean production system based on environmental dynamism

Abstract

AbstractUnder the background of economic globalization, enterprises face with more severe and uncertain environmental dynamism, and its lean production system redesign strategy is more critical. Firstly, given the dynamic environment that enterprises are facing, the redesign of the lean production system based on the environmental dynamism is proposed. Secondly, environmental dynamism is divided into two dimensions: market dynamics and technology dynamics, which is calculated by the objective method. Thirdly, by establishing the redesigned model of the lean production system based on environmental dynamism, the relationship between environmental dynamism and lean production level is analyzed. Fourth, the data of 251 listed companies from different industries in 2014 to 2017 were analyzed to verify the specific impact of environmental dynamism on the enterprise's lean production level. It was found that the relationship between environmental dynamism and the enterprise lean production level is presented as “U,” “S,” and other more complex relationships. At last, some suggestions are put forward to optimal the redesign of lean production systems under different environmental dynamism.
