Production Performance Assessment at Different Levels …
359
excluded. After these first two steps, there were 673 articles that were scientifically
recognized, due to the citations that each work presents in Google Scholar. This
enables the research to be carried out in the most representative works on the subject
of production performance evaluation. As soon as the citations survey was done,
the representativeness cut was defined and occurred in 10 citations, that is, all works
with less than 10 citations were eliminated. Thus, in Filter 3, 394 articles representing
3.13% of citations were excluded and the 279 articles that passed the phase represent
96.87% of citations.
Reading the abstract, it was noticed that only 127 articles presented some kind
of alignment with the objective of this research and the 152 without alignment were
excluded. In the recap stages, 72 articles were added to the process because they
were recent articles and 16 articles were also added because they were prepared by
authors of the Authors Bank. This made the input data for Filter 5 total 215 articles.
However, 76 articles were not available and 100 articles did not present alignment
after the full reading of the paper. Thus, the Bibliographic Portfolio was composed
of 39 articles.
4.2 Bibliometric Analysis
The bibliometric analysis was performed based on the articles of the Bibliographic
Portfolio as well as the References of the Bibliographic Portfolio and evidenced the
degree of relevance of the journals, the scientific recognition of the articles and the
degree of relevance of the authors. The results are presented in Fig. 4.
Analyzing Fig. 4, it can be seen that there was no congruence in the results,
that is, the information extracted from the Bibliographic Portfolio and Bibliographic
Portfolio References are different. The most relevant journal in the Bibliographic
Portfolio is the International Journal of Production Economics while the International
Journal of Operations and Production Management is the most relevant journal in
the Bibliographic Portfolio References.
In the articles, Measuring supply chain performance was the most influential
article in the Google Scholar Bibliographic Portfolio with 3081 citations and The
Changing Basis of Performance Measurement was the featured article in the 5citation Bibliographic Portfolio References. Both articles were published in the International Journal of Operations and Production Management. The last analysis showed
that Stefano Tonchia and Robert Steven Kaplan are the most prolific authors of the
Bibliographic Portfolio and References, respectively. Tonchia has been cited 4 times
in the Bibliographic Portfolio and Kaplan has been cited 39 times in References. The
negative highlight is that the articles relevant to the production performance appraisal
theme identified earlier were not written by these authors.
