“…These businesses address challenges that are related to process reliability, the supply base and long lead times from source to production, although they produce functional products [20,22]. Thus, a firm adopting an RHSC strategy is high in supply uncertainty, but low on-demand uncertainty due to the very nature of innovative products, which makes demand volatile, shortens the lifecycle, and provides greater profit margins [23].…”

“…Finally, an ASC has an evolving process in which customer demands remain unstable, and suppliers are unreliable and limited. Such firms emphasize their resources and capabilities on quality, delivery dependability, and after-sales service [20,22,33]. Hence, firms with an ASC strategy view both supply and demand as having high uncertainty.…”

“…The correlation between the predictive scores and construct scores is 0.63 (p < 0.01), which suggests that the PLS-SEM model has acceptable predictive validity. Furthermore, the predictive validity of fsQCA analysis is made following recent empirical studies [20,56,75,76,79]. Table 5 highlights that the patterns of the complex combination of conditions are causally consistent indicators of a high level of supply chain OP.…”

“…Hence, this study attempts to extend this stream of research by focusing on the following gaps in the literature. First, RDT is adopted to examine the direct relationship between SCU (demand and supply) and SCS due to the fact that earlier studies by Wu et al [20], Qi et al [18], Yusuf et al [21], Lee [22], and Fisher [23] concluded SCS is a broad and multidimensional phenomenon represented by multiple strategies [18,[20][21][22][23]. Second, this research further extends on Fisher and Lee's model who introduced the concept of "strategic supply chain" in response to uncertain environments, and who also examined the context of achieving superior performance through responding to uncertainty [23,24].…”

Analyzing Supply Chain Uncertainty to Deliver Sustainable Operational Performance: Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Modeling Approaches

Abstract:The purpose of this study is to analyze different types of supply chain uncertainties and suggest strategies to deal with unexpected contingencies to deliver superior operational performance (OP) using symmetrical and asymmetrical modeling approaches. The data were collected through a survey given to 146 supply chain managers within the fast moving consumer goods industry in Thailand. Symmetrical modeling is applied via partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) in order to assess the theoretical relationships among the latent variables, while asymmetrical modeling is applied via fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to emphasize their combinatory causal relation. The empirical results support the theory by highlighting the mediating effect of supply chain strategy (SCS) in the relation between supply chain uncertainty (SCU) and firms' OP and, hence, deliver business sustainability for the firms, demonstrating that the choice of SCS should not be an "either-or" decision. This research contributes by providing an illustration of a PLS-SEM and fsQCA based estimation for the rapidly emerging field of sustainable supply chain management. This study provides empirical support for resource dependence theory (RDT) in explaining the relation between SCU and SCS, which leads to sustainable OP. From a methodological standpoint, this study also illustrates predictive validation testing of models using holdout samples and testing for causal asymmetry.

“…Literature Review GSCM can be detached into introspective -industrial ecological procedures; erstwhile interprets the forms of mediocre vague resources and the later refers to communally multifaceted resources 6 . Intra-industrial environ policies, such as high-quality environmental management and offal management systems are focused on vigor utilization, material ingestion, discharges and waste in association with innate methods.…”

The eco-friendly structure of supply chain concentrates on the accountability of an organization in valuing the entire ecological effects of yields through its complete life cycle, from the procurement of raw materials to the final utilization and products disposal. This paper aims to delineate the pressures for espousing greenness in supply chain management among small and medium sized leather industries of northern Tamilnadu. Drivers which aid to implement Green Supply Chain Management are defined via literature review and also from leather industry experts. The quantitative figures were evaluated using regression analysis, correlation and standard deviation. The outcomes of this analysis exposed that a management commitment, green procurement and green marketing methodologies, eco-friendly proposal and environ praxis are not contemplated by the industries to green the entire supply chain (SC) system. Even though the environmental protocols and policies of leather industries are rigorous, the industries are violating the rules because there is no action from concerned boards. This work proposes concerned departments to formulate apt monitoring structure and consolidative supply chain philosophy to restraint the problems and to support balanced economic growth.
