由於不確定性及競爭加劇等因素，現今企業所面臨改善供應鏈以及績效的巨大壓力，製造商積極採用各種創新和基於流程的改善方法，以獲得對手無法取代的競爭優勢。
精實供應鏈是一套由豐田生產模式的概念及技術的延伸，核心主張強調須徹底的消除一切浪費，用更少的努力、更少的設備、更少的時間與空間，使產品依顧客需求產出創造獲利；歐盟自2006年7月起相繼訂定了三大環保法規，以及近年來環保意識及永續發展的概念提升，更因此導致綠色供應鏈的導入及實施；整合環境議題與精實生產及供應鏈是目前管理相關研究所面臨相當大的挑戰。因此，本篇論文試圖了解在企業採用精實供應鏈及綠色供應鏈的實務時，知識管理能力在實務中是否能成為兩者產生綜效之影響因素，並以企業中的營運績效及環境績效作為綜效產生之衡量標的。
本研究之研究對象為天下雜誌2017年調查台灣一千大製造業之採購部門或是生產管理部門主管為研究對象，以郵寄問卷方式進行調查。研究結果顯示：(1)「知識獲取」對「精實供應鏈與綠色供應鏈管理實務」有顯著正向之關係；(2)「知識移轉」對「精實供應鏈與綠色供應鏈管理實務」有顯著正向之關係；(3)「精實供應鏈與綠色供應鏈管理實務」對「營運績效」有顯著正向之關係；(4)「精實供應鏈與綠色供應鏈管理實務」對「環境績效」有顯著正向之關係。因此，本研究認為企業在執行精實供應鏈與綠色供應鏈實務時，透過知識的知識的獲取及移轉，增加執行所產生之綜效，同時提升供應鏈績效。

Firms are under heavy pressure to improve supply chain planning and performance because of factors such as increasing uncertainty and competition. Manufacturers have adopted a variety of innovative technological and process-based solutions to obtain and sustain competitive advantage over their competitors.
Lean supply chain is an extension of the concept and technology of the Toyota Production Model. The core claim emphasizes the need to completely eliminate all waste. With less effort, less equipment, less time and space to produce products that meet customer needs and enhance the profitability. The EU has successively established three major environmental laws and regulations since July 2006 and environmental protection awareness and concept of sustainable development have improved in recent years which lead to the introduction and implementation of green supply chain. The integration of environmental issues with lean manufacturing and supply chains is still a major challenge for management research.
This paper aims to focus on the combined synergies of knowledge management capability on operational and environmental performance in manufacturing enterprises by executing lean and green supply chain practices. A questionnaire based survey was performed. Data from top 1000 Manufacturing Enterprises by CommonWealth magazine of Taiwan in 2017 were collected through mail survey. The results indicate that knowledge acquisition and knowledge conversion are positively related to lean and green supply chain practices which, in turn, has a positive effect on operations and environmental performance .
Therefore, managers need to facilitate dynamics of knowledge acquisition, conversion , and then utilize it to cultivate a better synergies of Lean and Green supply chain practices, which in turn will result in favorable operations performance.
