Abstract: The study examines the mediating role of competitive advantage among the JIT inventory system, customer involvement, supplier development, and manufacturing industry performance, and investigates the moderating role of institutional support among competitive advantage and manufacturing industry performance in the UAE. The study gathered data from employees of the manufacturing industry in the UAE using survey questionnaires. The study also used smart PLS to check the connections among the variables. The results reveal that the JIT inventory system, customer involvement, and supplier development are positively associated with manufacturing industry performance. The outcomes also revealed that competitive advantage significantly mediates the JIT inventory system, customer involvement, supplier development, and manufacturing industry performance, and institutional support significantly moderates competitive advantage and manufacturing industry performance. This study guides policymakers in formulating policies related to achieving industrial performance using an effective JIT inventory system, customer involvement, and supplier development.
