The study aimed to ascertain the extent of the production management system's implementation in terms of its categories and the level of performance based on its key indicators in selected manufacturing industry in Zhejiang, China. The study utilized a descriptive research design with a current-situational focus. A total of 305 participants in the study were involved, composed of managers, supervisors, and workers from manufacturing companies who have direct involvement in production management. The extent of implementation of the production management system revealed that product leverage and product costing showed the greatest extent of implementation. However, it was evident that there were things that needed enhancement. The identified gaps were found in planning and scheduling, inventory control, and quality control. Moreover, the level of performance of the production management system showed an adequate level of performance, particularly on time, flexibility, and cost at some points. However, in the production management system, it was found that there is a necessary need for the manufacturing company to improve the process of production in terms of quality and in some areas of cost indicators. Also, the study revealed no significant difference in the responses provided by the managers, supervisors, and workers when they were grouped according to categories of production management system of planning and scheduling, inventory control, quality control, product costing, and product leverage technology. Consistency was also determined from the performance indicators of the production management system, resulting in no significant difference in quality, cost, time, and flexibility. Finally, the conclusion and recommendation of the study were used to develop a proposed production management plan in order to enhance the manufacturing performance of the production management system.
