“…Consortia require integrated supply chains to deliver efficiency benefits (Christensen, Germain and Birou, 2005;Mitra and Singhal, 2008), but an underpinning assumption is that a focal organisation leads the supply chain's direction owing to their power and position (Hall and Vredenburg, 2003).…”

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to report on a field-level examination of the adoption of sustainable procurement in social housing. It explores the role of regulation and procurement consortia in sustainable procurement. Design/methodology/approach – The study employs a case study of the UK social housing sector and uses an online survey (n=116) of UK Housing Associations. Factor analysis identifies three parsimonious dimensions of sustainable procurement. Attitudinal data are analysed to explore the field-level adoption of sustainable procurement and the role of consortia. Findings – The results delineate sustainable procurement activities into three factors; direction setting, supplier-centric assurance and local socially oriented supply. High yet sup-optimal levels of sustainable procurement activity are revealed. Prevailing attitudes identify positive commitments to sustainable procurement at individual, organisational and sector levels. The value of network collaboration is identified. Tenants as critical stakeholders do not prioritise sustainable procurement creating challenge for inclusivity. Regulators are seen to a have low level of sustainable procurement knowledge and procurement consortia a high perceived knowledge. Research limitations/implications – Results provide insight into the effect of sustainable procurement policy, the role of regulators and network structures and consortia, raising issues around legitimacy, coopetition, stakeholder engagement, performance measurement, and functional/sectoral maturity. Social implications – The identification of the potential exclusion of tenants in sustainability debates is particularly significant to deliver social value. Originality/value – The relative newness of the social housing sector and its quasi-public sector status provides an original contribution to the consortia and sustainable procurement literatures.

“…It is such business process integration that allows companies to exploit the advantages of SCM and thus achieve better performance by lowering costs and increasing profits and customer satisfaction (De Treville et al, 2004;Skjøtt-Larsen et al, 2005;Mitra and Singhal, 2008;Martinez-Sanchez et al, 2009). …”

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual model that includes drivers of supply chain management (SCM) adoption and execution identified in the literature, provide a set of measurement scales that operationalise constructs within this model, empirically verify a hierarchical order of antecedents that affects the adoption and execution of SCM, and assist management by providing a focus on those SCM conditions and processes that need to be prioritised to increase successful SCM adoption and execution.Design: The conceptual model is tested empirically through a survey of 174 senior supply chain managers representing the biggest organisations within a central European country.Findings: Using structural equation modelling the hypothesised hierarchical order of three proposed antecedents are verified: 'internal SCM conditions' that affect 'joint or external SCM conditions' which in turn influences collaborative 'SCM-related processes'. Firms that adopt these steps should enjoy a rigorous and appropriate road to the full execution of SCM. Research limitations:The survey results reflect the views of large organisations in a countryspecific supply chain setting. Practical implications:The findings provide a hierarchical focus for financial, personnel and management initiatives to increase integration within a supply chain and improve competitiveness.Originality/value: The major contribution of this paper is that it provides empirical proof of the antecedents that affect the adoption and execution of SCM.

“…Primarily anecdotal evidence, in the form of case studies, exists to support these notions. Exploration of this area by researchers has significant potential for creating more efficient and effective supply chains (Cousins and Menguc 2006;Hult et al 2006;Mitra and Singhal 2008;Paulraj et al 2008).…”

Since its introduction as a concept in the 1980s, supply chain management (SCM) has undergone significant modification and expansion. A qualitative analysis of 166 unique definitions of SCM published in the literature identified three major themes associated with the supply chain and SCM: (1) activities; (2) benefits; and (3) constituents/ components. Utilizing these themes, key research questions and issues within the supply chain and SCM are identified that could be examined by marketing scholars.
