Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between lean production approaches and sustainability performance in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in Erzurum province. The research analyzes the effects of lean leadership, lean culture, lean supplier management, and lean knowledge management on the effectiveness of lean practices in SMEs. In addition, the impact of lean practices on economic sustainability and the effect of economic sustainability on social sustainability performance are also evaluated. Data were collected through face-to-face surveys from 87 SME managers and analyzed using the SPSS 20 statistical package. The collected data were subjected to regression analysis, and the results were interpreted.

Özet

Bu çalışma, Erzurum ilinde faaliyet gösteren küçük ve orta ölçekli işletmelerin (KOBİ’ler) yalın üretim yaklaşımları ile sürdürülebilirlik performansı arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada yalın liderlik, yalın kültür, yalın tedarikçi yönetimi ve yalın bilgi yönetiminin KOBİ’lerdeki yalın uygulamaların etkinliği üzerindeki etkileri analiz edilmiştir. Aynı zamanda yalın uygulamaların ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik üzerindeki etkisi ve ekonomik sürdürülebilirliğin sosyal sürdürülebilirlik performansına etkisi de değerlendirilmiştir. Yüz yüze anket yöntemiyle 87 KOBİ yöneticilerinden toplanan verilerle SPSS.20 paket programı kullanılarak analizler yapılmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen veriler regresyon analizine tabi tutulmuş ve sonuçlar yorumlanmıştır.
