Supply Chain Collaboration: Antecedents and Consequences
In the past twenty years, firms have strived to achieve greater supply chain collaboration to leverage the resources and knowledge of their suppliers and customers. The objective of the study is to uncover the nature of supply chain collaboration and explore its antecedents and consequences. Reliable and valid instruments of these constructs were developed through rigorous empirical analysis including structured interviews, Q-sort, and a largescale study. Data were collected through a Web survey of U.S. manufacturing firms in various industries. The statistical methods used include confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling (i.e., LISREL). The results indicate that IOS appropriation supports supply chain collaboration, which in turn improves collaborative advantage.
