Just-in-Time (JIT) practices have long been, and continue to be, a topic of great interest in the literature and practice of operations strategy and the link between manufacturing strategies remains incomplete. This research aims to examine the impact of four dimensions of the manufacturing strategy namely, achievement of functional integration, formal planning of manufacturing strategy, the link between manufacturing strategy and business strategy, and the anticipation of new technology and three JIT practices: the setup time reduction, the use of Kanban system, and the daily schedule adherence. Data were collected through a questionnaire on a sample of 25 Egyptian industrial companies from 233 managers with a response rate of 82.40 %.The statistical methods; factor analysis, descriptive analysis, and multiple regressions were applied to examine four hypotheses.The results revealed that not all the hypotheses were supported. Implications for theory and practice were discussed and possible directions for future research are presented.
