“…This result is valid for both the low lean maturity ( r = 0.393; p = 0.000) and the high lean maturity ( r = 0.198; p = 0.009) groups. Moreover, once H5 was also supported, this shows that either GP or LPs can help achieving a better SP (Helena Rodrigues et al, 2020), even though LPs are more strongly tied to SP, especially in the high lean maturity group.…”

This research assesses the lean and green (LG) practices' impact on the competitive advantage (CA) of organizations, through sustainable performance, considering lean maturity as the moderator. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from a cross-sectional sample of 261 companies operating in Portugal. Hypotheses are tested through structural equation modeling and multigroup analysis to examine the lean maturity moderating role. Results demonstrate a positive impact of LG practices on sustainable development and that their three dimensions of CA, with lean maturity boosting most relationships. This research highlights the impact of LG practices on organization's competitiveness and helps them underpin the importance these practices when comes to enhance their sustainable performance and their CA with help of environmental policy and also stakeholder engagement. Future studies should address these relationships upon a specific dimension, namely the correlation between environmental performance and CA, as it was not dealt in this study.

“…Thus, it is not surprising that the lean and green literature is connected in various aspects such as service level and delivery time reduction (D€ ues et al, 2013), as well as with the supply chain (De Giovanni and Cariola, 2021). However, empirical and theoretical results of the relationship between LP-GSC vary from positive to negative outcomes, resulting in an ambiguous and paradoxical conclusion (Rodr ıguez et al, 2020;Ait Hammou et al, 2022). Therefore, the relationship between LP-GSC can still be considered inconclusive (Herbaz et al, 2022).…”

PurposeThe tightening of environmental measures and policies in various countries around the world is forcing manufacturing companies, particularly those that make up the automotive industry, to improve their production processes, through the implementation of approaches such as lean production (LP) and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies, to reduce industrial waste. However, the literature indicates that the implementation of LP and I4.0 does not always lead to an improvement in the level of operational performance (OP). Therefore, this study analyzes the effects of the implementation of LP practices and I4.0 on a green supply chain (GSC) and the operational performance of manufacturing companies in the Mexican automotive industry.Design/methodology/approachA theoretical research framework consisting of six hypotheses was developed and validated by applying partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and using a sample of 460 companies from the Mexican automotive industry.FindingsThe results show that the level of OP of manufacturing companies increases substantially with the implementation of LP and I4.0 practices, as well as a GSC.Practical implicationsManagers of manufacturing companies will be able to use the results of this study to improve their production systems and to demonstrate the effects of these practices on OP.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the literature on LP and I4.0 by providing robust empirical evidence of the positive effects of implementing these approaches on the GSC and OP of manufacturing companies.

“…Ahora bien, las actividades desarrolladas por el sector logístico tienen impactos tanto positivos como negativos en la sociedad. Como tal, las ganancias económicas y sociales son claramente las contribuciones positivas de estas actividades para muchos países en diferentes regiones del mundo (Rodrigues et al, 2020). Para que las empresas desempeñen un buen papel en la exploración de mercados, es necesario que desarrollen eficientemente la actividad logística y que tengan recursos disponibles en forma de capital de trabajo, inversiones y activos fijos (Lepchak y Voese, 2020).…”

El propósito de esta investigación es analizar la gestión logística en la industria salinera en La Guajira, Colombia. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo, no experimental y transversal. La población muestreada la componen 39 ingenieros de empresas mineras que se dedican a la explotación y/o procesamiento de la sal en el departamento de La Guajira. Se empleó la técnica de observación mediante encuesta y se construyó un cuestionario. Se obtuvo como resultado falencias con relación a la aplicación de la gestión logística en la minería de la sal en el departamento de La Guajira, por lo que es importante desarrollar acciones para mejorar su planeación y ejecución. Se concluye que la gestión logística se realiza en forma medianamente efectiva, resultando eficientes las estrategias logísticas examinadas, y reflejándose aceptables la logística interna identificada, los procesos logísticos descritos y la estructura organizacional establecida en el presente estudio.
