Linking Productivity and Competitive Advantage: The Mediation of Quality Results
Get PDFPurpose: Most studies have shown that there is a significant relationship between productivity and competitive advantage, but none have attempted to include a contingency variable to provide more insight into the nature of this relationship. To fill this gap, this study was conducted to empirically verify this relationship by including 'quality results' as a contingency variable.
Design/methodology/Approach: Quantitative research approach was employed and primary data was collected from TAZARA management employees. Model fit, reliability and validity were tested using regression analysis, factor analysis and principal component analysis using Jamovi software.
Findings: The results show that there is a positive and significant relationship between productivity and competitive advantage, and between quality results and competitive advantage. The results also show that quality results partially mediate the relationship between productivity and competitive advantage.
Practical implications: The study provides insights on the nature of the relationship between productivity and competitive advantage. The study proves that quality results is critical to improving and sustaining productivity to promote competitiveness in an organisation. As organisations relentlessly seek to maintain and gain competitiveness through productivity, managers and employees need to understand how quality results can be integrated into all operations

Findings: Buying and selling transactions that used to be conventional with physical stores and a face to face system have now changed to digital or online based with a screen to face system. More and more businesses are providing products and services online without having to have a physical shop like conventional businesses in general. An online-based shop, also known as an online shop, is a business where consumers can buy products or services through an internet-based application or platform, without having to come to the shop and transact directly with the seller. However, online product and service transactions, especially online shops on social media (not via marketplace platforms) require the establishment of mutual trust between buyers and sellers. This condition is a challenge for online shops to be able to create a good brand image in order to gain the trust of consumers, thereby creating brand awareness. Therefore, in an effort to increase product sales, brand awareness is needed from consumers, so that business people can respond to market needs according to current developments and continue to survive in the midst of increasingly competitive business competition.
