Abstract:
Effective supply chain management (SCM) has become a potentially valuable way of securing
competitive advantage and improving organizational performance since competition is no longer
between organizations, but among supply chains. This Research conceptualizes and develops
five dimensions of SCM practice (strategic supplier partnership, customer relationship, level of
information sharing, quality of information sharing, and postponement) and tests the
relationships between SCM Practices, competitive advantage, and organizational performance.
Data for the study were collected from 196 organizations and the relationships proposed in the
framework were tested using structural equation modeling. The results indicate that higher levels
of SCM practice can lead to enhanced competitive advantage and improved organizational
performance.
