Abstract

PurposeThis study investigates the possible curvilinear relationship between operational interdependency and supply chain performance as well as the contingency effect of supply chain disruptions, in terms of disruption orientation and disruption impact.Design/methodology/approachPath analysis was employed to test the hypotheses using the data collected from Chinese manufacturers.FindingsThe results confirm an inverted U-shape effect of operational interdependency. As level of buyer-supplier operational dependency increase, the supply chain performance is enhanced. However, the benefits of operational interdependency diminish beyond a certain point. Additionally, the findings of this study show the disruption orientations positively moderate the relationship between interdependency and performance, whereas the effect of disruption impact is not significant.Originality/valueThe findings of this study provide an explanation to the theoretical gap about the equivocal results of the effect of dependency, which provide new insights into the literature regarding buyer-supplier relationships. Furthermore, this paper identifies the moderating role of supply chain disruption in the relationship between operational interdependency and supply chain performance, which provide further explanation about the mixed results of the effect of dependency. The results confirmed that supply chain disruption orientation positively moderate the relationship between operational interdependency and supply chain performance.

揭示业务相互依赖和供应链绩效之间的联系

目的本研究从中断导向和中断影响两方面探讨业务相互依赖与供应链绩效之间可能存在的曲线关系以及供应链中断的偶然性效应。采用设计/方法学/方法路径分析，使用从中国制造商收集的数据来检验假设。研究结果证实了操作相互依赖的倒u形效应。随着买卖双方经营依赖程度的提高，供应链绩效也随之提高。但是，业务相互依赖的好处超过某一点就会减少。此外，本研究发现，颠覆性取向正调节相互依赖与绩效之间的关系，而颠覆性冲击的影响不显著。本研究的发现解释了依赖效应的模糊结果的理论缺口，为有关买方-供应商关系的文献提供了新的见解。此外，本文还确定了供应链中断在经营相互依赖与供应链绩效关系中的调节作用，从而进一步解释了依赖效应的混合结果。结果证实，供应链中断导向正向调节运营相互依赖与供应链绩效之间的关系。

期刊介绍： Benchmarking is big news for companies committed to total quality programmes. Its enthusiastic reception by many prominent business figures has created high levels of interest in a technique which promises big rewards for co-operating partners. Yet, like total quality itself, it must be understood in its proper context, and implemented single mindedly if it is to be effective - this journal helps companies to decide if benchmarking is right for them, and shows them how to go about it successfully.
