Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to examine knowledge management (KM) infrastructure and processes on automobile manufacturing firm innovative performance through the mediating role of agile project management (APM) practice.

Design/methodology/approach

The data collection involved purposive and convenience sampling techniques to gather information from 692 employees employed in various public and private automobile manufacturing firms operating in Pakistan. To test the hypothesis, data analysis was conducted using Smart PLS software version 4, using the partial least squares and structural equation modeling technique.

Findings

The result revealed that knowledge management infrastructure and processes has a positive and significant effect on firm innovative performance. Moreover, agile project management practices positively and significantly mediate the relationship between knowledge management infrastructure and processes and firm innovative performance.

Practical implications

The performance of high-tech automobile manufacturing firms can be enhanced by implementing agile project management practices, especially when stimulated by external factors such as innovation. In an increasingly dynamic environment, innovation acts as a favorable factor that amplifies the positive impact of agile methodologies on firm performance.

Originality/value

Researchers can use these findings to identify knowledge gaps that need to be addressed in future studies and understand how strategies relate to processes within the KM-APM framework. This study provides practitioners with insights on applying KM practices in an APM context to enhance knowledge performance. Practitioners can use the framework to plan KM activities that support corporate strategy across all organizational layers, ensuring the appropriate knowledge is conveyed at each level.

通过敏捷项目管理实践的中介作用看知识管理基础设施和流程对汽车制造企业创新绩效的影响
本研究的目的是通过敏捷项目管理(APM)实践的中介作用,研究知识管理(KM)基础设施和流程对汽车制造企业创新绩效的影响。为了验证假设,使用 Smart PLS 软件版本 4,利用偏最小二乘法和结构方程建模技术进行了数据分析。结果结果显示,知识管理基础设施和流程对企业创新绩效有积极而显著的影响。此外,敏捷项目管理实践对知识管理基础架构和流程与企业创新绩效之间的关系起到了积极而显著的中介作用。实践意义高科技汽车制造企业可以通过实施敏捷项目管理实践来提高绩效,尤其是在创新等外部因素的刺激下。在日益动态化的环境中,创新作为一种有利因素,会放大敏捷方法对企业绩效的积极影响。原创性/价值研究人员可以利用这些发现来确定未来研究中需要解决的知识差距,并了解在知识管理-敏捷项目管理框架内战略与流程之间的关系。本研究为从业人员提供了在 APM 背景下应用知识管理实践以提高知识绩效的见解。从业人员可以利用该框架规划知识管理活动,在组织的各个层面支持企业战略,确保在每个层面传达适当的知识。
