This paper investigates a set of strategies for information systems utilization in supply chain integration initiatives. We argue that there might be a recommended sequence in using information systems for supply chain integration. Support is provided through an analysis of structural relationships of ways in which information systems are utilized for supply chain integration, i.e., Infrastructural Support, Value Creation Management, Logistical Operations, and Supply Chain Management Performance.
