‘The Effect of Critical Factors on Product Quality’: An Applied Research on Electrical Industry in Egypt

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect that critical factors on product quality. Which investigates the influence that five essential elements—markets, manpower, money capital, management, and raw materials—have on the product quality produced in the electrical sector. The study utilised a quantitative methodology, and it gathered information from 369 individuals that participated in the survey inside Elsewedy Electric. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was utilised for the purpose of data analysis, and the SmartPLS software was utilised for Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) in order to test the hypothesised correlations between the essential elements and product quality. At Elsewedy Electric, the results of the SEM study suggest that all five essential factors—Markets, Manpower, Money Capital, Management, and Raw Materials—have a strong beneficial effect on product quality. This is the conclusion that can be drawn from the findings of the analysis. With a confidence level of 99%, these data were statistically significant at a level of p < 0.05, thereby verifying all five hypotheses that were being investigated in this study. A detailed evaluation of many essential aspects that influence product quality within the specific context of Egypt's electrical industry is provided in this study.
