目的
本文的目的是提出组织设计-制造集成实践的有效性取决于制造环境的复杂程度。论文认为，ODMI的使用水平应该与制造环境的复杂程度相匹配。本文提出的假设是，当ODMI和复杂性之间发生不匹配时(低复杂性环境中ODMI实践的高使用率或高复杂性环境中ODMI实践的低使用率)，制造运营绩效下降。
设计/方法/方法
这篇论文基于对21个国家的725家制造商的调查数据库对这一假设进行了检验。对测量模型进行验证性因素分析，并对假设进行线性回归检验。
发现
ODMI使用水平(作业轮换和代管)与制造复杂性(产品和工艺复杂性)之间的不匹配对质量、交付和灵活性等制造业务绩效维度产生负面影响。事后分析还表明，在不同的环境中运营的公司在关注过程技术的变化速度时，会受到ODMI复杂性不匹配的不同负面影响。
研究限制/影响
未来的研究可能会将这项研究扩展到设计-制造一体化的其他维度，例如技术实践。
实际含义
复杂性水平较高的制造商应该大力投资于ODMI实践。然而，复杂性水平较低的制造商应该谨慎投资于这些实践，因为预期的回报可能不会超过努力。
原创性/价值
这项研究将FIT作为一组同时的意外因素进行评估，对ODMI和运营绩效关系进行了轮廓-偏差分析。通过关注工厂级制造复杂性，本研究补充了现有的产品开发复杂性研究，这些研究往往侧重于项目级复杂性。
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to propose that the effectiveness of organizational design-manufacturing integration (ODMI) practices is contingent upon the degree of complexity of the manufacturing environment. The paper submits that the level of use of ODMI ought to match the level of complexity of the manufacturing environment. The paper puts forward the hypothesis that when a misfit occurs between ODMI and complexity (high use of ODMI practices in low complexity environments or low use of ODMI practices in high complexity environments) manufacturing operational performance declines.
Design/methodology/approach
The paper tests the hypothesis based on a survey database of 725 manufacturers from 21 countries. The measurement model was assessed with confirmatory factor analysis and the hypothesis was tested with linear regression.
Findings
A misfit between the level of ODMI use (job rotation and co-location) and manufacturing complexity (product and process complexity) has a negative effect on manufacturing operational performance dimensions of quality, delivery and flexibility. Post hoc analyses also suggest that firms that operate in different environments in what concerns the rate of change in process technologies suffer differentiated negative impacts of ODMI-complexity misfit.
Research limitations/implications
Future studies could extend this research to other dimensions of design-manufacturing integration, such as technological practices.
Practical implications
Manufacturers with high levels of complexity should invest strongly in ODMI practices. However, manufacturers with low levels of complexity should invest in these practices with caution since the expected payoffs may not outweigh the effort.
Originality/value
The study assesses fit as a simultaneous set of contingency factors, applying profile-deviation analysis to ODMI and operational performance relationships. By focusing on plant-level manufacturing complexity, this study complements existing studies of product development complexity which tend to focus on project-level complexity.
