Supply Chain Management Practices and Organizational Performance in Manufacturing Industry

The study aims to evaluate the impact of supply chain management practices on the organizational performance in Manufacturing firms. The methodology included a quantitative approach and explanatory type with convenience sampling and linear regression analysis using a sample of 200 respondents working at various manufacturing firms in Karachi-Pakistan. The study found that strategic supplier partnership, knowledge management capability, and customer relationship significantly influence organizational performance. Since there were only limited observations, the revalidation of variables was not done in this study. Secondly, a complex supply chain management concept includes companies' networks to produce and deliver the final output. Thus the overall domain was not studied in this research. Future research could be done on the higher-order model using the same constructs to find the in-depth relationship between independent variables and the dependent variable using a complex statistical technique.
