The Strategic Supplier Partnership in a Supply Chain Management with Quality and Business Performance
Journal Title: International Journal of Business & Management Science - Year 2008, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The study investigates the association of strategic supplier partnership (SSP) in supply chain management (SCM) with product quality performance and business performance in the Malaysian manufacturing industries. In the inferential process, relationships between strategic supplier partnership practice, product quality performance and business performance and associations are analyzed using Pearson’s correlation, cluster analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings suggest that strategic supplier partnership practice and implementation have significant associations with product quality performance and business performance. The results of the study will be of particular interest to practicing production managers or top level managers for learning about the factors stimulating the adoption of strategic supplier partnership in SCM.
