Abstract

Enhancing the performance of suppliers through developing their capabilities provides more sustainable platform to sustain the competitive advantagesand manage the supply base in current the global business environment. Developing and maintaining fruitful relationship between buyer and suppler also plays an important role in enhancing the supplier performance through supplier development. Despite the fact that Asian countries significantly contribute to world economy mainly as suppliers in several industries, the important aspects of supply management – supplier performance, supplier development and buyer-supplier relationship – have mainly been conceptualized and measured in the perspective of developed countries. Thus, it is needed to measure these concepts in the perspective of Asian countries especially allowing the supplier’s point of view.
