Abstract

To improve production processes, manufacturing companies have made efforts to implement Industry 4.0 technologies and spread the use of Lean Manufacturing (LM) tools. Besides, in addition to the improvements in production processes, these efforts have also been reflected in other issues such as in the Product Development Process (PDP) and Market Performance. In this sense, the objective of this article is to elaborate a conceptual framework covering the constructs of Industry 4.0, LM, and PDP, and to evaluate the importance of these constructs on Market Performance in manufacturing companies in the South of Brazil. The conceptual framework, elaborated with the help of high-impact articles in the area, was evaluated by managers of 111 manufacturing companies in the southern Brazil. The research showed that the implementation of LM tools is more related to the PDP than Industry 4.0 and that large companies have had more positive effects in the implementation of both Industry 4.0 technologies and LM tools. This research can serve as a guide for manufacturing companies, showing the benefits, challenges and opportunities regarding the implementation of LM and Industry 4.0 tools and technologies aiming to improve PDP and Market Performance. It is possible to observe through a structured and systemic framework.
