“…Further, these studies offer no influential or consistent termination point in their conclusions. Ageron et al (2020) and Panahifar et al (2018) found only a common theoretical foundation of digital supply chain, but this study lacks conceptual models that can be used as practical projects for digitalizing supply chain and firm performance. There is a need for quantitative empirical analysis and a conceptual framework using the most recent data and techniques such as Smart PLS (Hair et al, 2020).…”

PurposeThis study aims to explore the impact of digital transformation on firm performance with the help of smart technologies.Design/methodology/approachThis study used a valid and well-structured survey to collect data from 460 respondents from 150 Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Saudi Arabia. In order to analyze this data, SmartPLS software was used.FindingsThe empirical results of this study found that the digital transformation has no significant direct impact on firm performance. Therefore, in this situation, smart technologies play an important role in developing the link between digital transformation and firm performance.Originality/valueThis study contributes to the digital supply chain from SMEs' perspective by investigating the mediating role of smart technologies between digital transformation and firm performance.

“…Thirdly, there is no doubt operational performance is an important and necessary component of several performance measurement systems currently in use [35,38], albeit the findings are not always consistent. Lastly, Neely [39], Ageron, et al [40], stated that operational performance can be dependent upon quality, costs, productivity, flexibility, and dependability. In addition, based on previous studies carried out by Maani and Sluti [41], Ward and Duray [42], Wong et al [43], and Tracey et al [44], quality, productivity, and cost have been chosen as the performance factors.…”

In this rapidly developing digital era, digital transformations take place within every industry, and they have effects on the management of the supply chains. The aim of this study is to delve into the influence of the digital supply chain on the quality, productivity, and cost reduction aspects of operational performance. This study relies on quantitative methodology and data collected from the food and beverage industry of Indonesia. Data from a survey comprising a total of 209 responses were selected for investigation. PLS-SEM was used to perform the analysis. The investigation reveals that the digital supply chain has significant effects on operational performance in terms of quality, productivity, and cost reduction performance. This study contributes to the understanding of supply chain management by addressing the knowledge gap associated with the digital supply chain. In particular, it has concentrated on the hitherto unresearched effect of operational performance in the context of the Indonesian manufacturing industry.

“…Few studies have linked the level of supply chain integration with a firm's performance and have found a positive relationship between them [Power, 2005]. Recent studies have explored the impact of the technological intervention on supply chain integration [Büyüközkan, Göçer, 2018;Kamble et al, 2020;Ageron et al, 2020].…”

This paper pioneers the identification of artificial intelligence (AI) enablers like technology feasibility, sophistication, data integrity, interoperability and perceived benefits that can boost operational efficiency of firms in Indian food processing industry. With the food processing industry contributing significantly to domestic gross value added and generating an export earning of close to USD 40 billion from agricultural and processed food exports, the study examines the role of AI in overcoming the existing inefficiencies of firms, particularly the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) involved in food processing. For this, questionnaire was circulated to 500 respondents comprising of IT and supply chain professionals, managers of food processing companies and academicians working in this domain, of which 341 complete responses were received. These responses were then analysed using PLS-SEM modeling, through which the relationship between AI adoption and operational efficiency of firm was established. The study found a significant relationship between AI adoption and operational efficiency. The R square and Q square values substantiate the predictive power of the model used in the study. The research has significant implications for supply chain professionals as technology adoption would boost resilience, integration and transparency of these firms. The study is also relevant for addressing issues pertaining to food security, ________________________________ Vranda Jain -Assistant Professor.
