In the published article, Khoza, S., Mafini, C. & Loury Okoumba, W.V., 2022, ‘Lean practices and supply-chain competitiveness in the steel industry in Gauteng, South Africa’, South African Journal of Economic and Management Sciences 25(1), a4617. https://doi.org/10.4102/sajems.v25i1.4617, on page 7 the following paragraph is updated as it was incorrectly formulated:

The original incorrect wording:

Explanatory factor analysis

A Harma’s one-factor score test was conducted by running the preliminary explanatory factor analysis (EFA) on the sample data. In contrast, the unrotated factor solution was examined to determine the number of necessary factors to account for the variance in the variables. The single factor that emerged yielded one general factor accounting for approximately 24.89% of the covariance among the measures, concluding that common method variance is not a problem.

The revised and updated wording:

Exploratory factor analysis

A Harman’s one-factor score test was conducted by running the preliminary exploratory factor analysis (EFA) on the sample data. In contrast, the unrotated factor solution was examined to determine the number of necessary factors to account for the variance in the variables. The single factor that emerged yielded one general factor accounting for approximately 24.89% of the covariance among the measures, concluding that common method variance is not a problem.
