Interdependence Among Inventory Types and Firm Performance
Open accessAbstract
Extant research on lean manufacturing has focused on the relationship between systemic inventory and performance.However, limited research, if any, has focused on dynamics between three main types of inventory -raw material, workin-process, and finished goods -and firm performance.Drawing on the interdependence framework and a sample of 1,286 firms representing 41,067 firm-quarter observations from 2000 to 2013, when considering two types of inventory efficiencies jointly, higher efficiency in the subsequent inventory type must be accompanied by lower efficiency in the previous inventory type.In other words, lower raw material inventory efficiency and higher work-in-process inventory efficiency, or lower work-in-process inventory efficiency and higher finished goods inventory efficiency are associated with higher performance.High performance is also realized only when inventory efficiency is increasing across all three inventory types.The findings show that pursuing efficiency in one type of inventory requires lower efficiency in the previous inventory stage, and benefits of lean manufacturing could only be realized when all three inventory efficiencies are simultaneously high.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
