Abstract

Based on the relevant studies of lean production, production technology improvement, quality management and production performance, the relationship model of lean production, production technology improvement, quality management and production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies is constructed, and the influence mechanism of lean production and production technology improvement on production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies is revealed. Specifically, by systematically reviewing relevant theories and existing research results, this paper proposes a logical idea of “lean production, production technology improvement — quality management — production performance†, discusses and proposes relevant research hypotheses according to the relationship between variables in the theoretical model, and sends out questionnaires to Chinese high-tech manufacturing companies on a large scale, and recovers 425 questionnaires. The incomplete or invalid questionnaires with obvious errors were eliminated, and 411 valid questionnaires were finally obtained. The statistical analysis software SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 24.0 were used for reliability analysis, validity analysis, exploratory factor analysis, typical correlation analysis of the collected data, multiple linear regression analysis model and mediation effect model was established. Test the theoretical paper. In this paper, a total of 7 research hypotheses are proposed, among which 7 hypotheses are supported by the survey data. Combining qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis, this paper draws the following conclusions: (1) Lean production has a significant positive impact on the production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies; (2) The improvement of production technology has a significant positive effect on the production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies; (3) Quality management has a significant positive effect on the production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies; (4) Quality management has a partial mediating effect between lean production and production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies; (5) Quality management plays a partial mediating role between production technology improvement and production performance of high-tech manufacturing companies.
