| Abstract: | The paper contrasts the characteristics of high and low performing supply chains in Japan, USA and Europe. From an initial set of 20 supply chains six "high" and six 'low! performing chains were identified, based on their levels of performance on quality and on-time delivery. Comparison reveals that the high performing supply chains have lower inventories, more frequent deliveries, a higher number of second tier suppliers and have higher production volumes. |
