Sažetak
Based on a large scale manufacturing study pursued by members of Global Manufacturing Research Group we aim to find answers on several questions. (1) do trade-offs between core competences still exist, (2) which best practices use best performers. We divided our sample according to profit margin into three groups. We show that order of importance of competitive priorities have changed since last researches. Through correlation analysis we showed that for high performers correlation between competitive priorities are extremely high (over 0, 5) unlike the middle performers and unlike low performers who experience trade-offs between competitive priorities. Finally we looked at used best practices and find the biggest differences in usage of Six sigma methodology, ISO 14000, cellular manufacturing, JIT and finally factory automation. Our findings are in accordance with the integrative model described in Boyer and Lewis (2002, pp. 11).
