Modeling the relationship between supply chain integration and integrated supply chain performance
2008 IEEE International Conference on Service Operations and Logistics, and Informatics, 2008A positive relationship between supply chain integration and integrated supply chain performance is often suggested in the supply chain literature. However, extant research has focused more on the investigation of the impacts of supply chain integration on corporate performance, and especially performance of the focal firm, rather than supply chain ...

Military supply chain integration [PDF]
Proceedings of ICSSSM '05. 2005 International Conference on Services Systems and Services Management, 2005., 2005 Military supply chain management is a brand-new subject. In a series of theoretical questions needing to be answered, it is one of the key problems how to realize the synchronization and coordination of the nodes in military supply chain. To integrate military supply chain is a feasible way to solve this problem.

Influence of System Integration and Supply Chain Integration in Supply Chains: Virtual Integration Theory Perspective [PDF]
Advanced Science and Technology Letters, 2016 This study develops a model to examine whether inter-organizational compatibility has cross-boundary effects on virtual integration (system integration and supply chain integration), thus leading to better supply chain performance. We empirically tested the research model using data collected from senior managers of 116 manufacturing firms in South ...

Arcs of supply chain integration
International Journal of Production Research, 2011Integration is posited by many authors as a supply chain utopia. Indeed, it is claimed as being synonymous with supply chain management excellence. The primary aim of this research is to verify the link between supply chain integration and competitive performance. Detailed information collected via an 8-year international field study of 50 products and
