By exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, the scale of manufacturing firm's supply chain performance is obtained. The results show that supply chain performance can be conceptualized as a four dimensional construct: supplier performance, customer responsiveness, supply chain flexibility and supply chain cost. Furthermore, after testing research hypotheses by LISREL, we find that these four constructs all have significant effects on competitive advantage, and that each of them except supplier performance has significant effects on firm performance. The implications for our findings are also presented for the improvement of manufacturing firm's supply chain performance.","PeriodicalId":210815,"journal":{"name":"2011 Fourth International Joint Conference on Computational Sciences and Optimization","volume":"198 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132244947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
