| Abstract: | In this paper, the authors investigate the key causal linkages in supply chain management.

Three major research issues are addressed in this study: Do sourcing decisions affect the degree to which firms achieve manufacturing goals of cost, flexibility, dependability, and quality? Does the degree of manufacturing goal achievement lead to higher customer responsiveness? Does it lead to higher internal manufacturing performance? |
