This paper replicates the study of Tortorella and Fettermann (2018) aimed at testing the relationship between Industry 4.0 adoption and (LM) implementation, as well as their joint effect on operational performance. Namely, we aim at identifying further contextual factors that can influence the above relations, on top of those studied by Tortorella and Fettermann (2018), i.e. company’s size and experience in LM implementation. We conducted a survey and 160 usable questionnaires have been collected. Our preliminary evidence mostly confirms the results of Tortorella and Fettermann (2018). Furthermore, we uncover the effects of other contextual factors.

Abstract
This paper replicates the study of Tortorella and Fettermann (2018) aimed at testing the relationship between Industry 4.0 adoption and (LM) implementation, as well as their joint effect on operational performance. Namely, we aim at identifying further contextual factors that can influence the above relations, on top of those studied by Tortorella and Fettermann (2018), i.e. company’s size and experience in LM implementation. We conducted a survey and 160 usable questionnaires have been collected. Our preliminary evidence mostly confirms the results of Tortorella and Fettermann (2018). Furthermore, we uncover the effects of other contextual factors.
