“…Williams (2006) stated that long term objectives include improving efficiency and effectiveness of supply chain partners, improving market share and profits, and increasing customer satisfaction. Short term objectives of SC include increasing productivity, and reducing cycle time and inventories (Wisner & Tan, 2000).…”

The purpose of this study is to test the impact of supply chain management practices on supply chain performance in terms of supply chain efficiency and supply chain effectiveness. Additionally, we investigate the moderating effect of competitive intensity on the relationship between supply chain management practices and supply chain performance. Data for this research were collected from 104 manufacturing companies in Jordan. Hierarchical regressions were used to test the hypothesized relationships. The results indicate that three supply chain management practices, internal integration, information sharing, and postponement, but not supplier integration and customer integration, significantly and positively affect supply chain efficiency performance. Competitive intensity moderates the relationship between each of internal integration, supplier integration, and customer integration, and supply chain efficiency performance. The results also show that three supply chain management practices, internal integration, customer integration, and postponement, but not supplier integration and information sharing, significantly and positively affect supply chain effectiveness performance. Competitive intensity moderates the relationship between each of customer integration and information sharing, and supply chain effectiveness performance.

“…In order to increase the profitability of a supply chain, an appropriate supply chain management model has been examined by analyzing the external market and a negotiating contract (Cox, 1996). In an appropriate supply chain management model, the purchasers and the suppliers of the intermediate goods should communicate in an effort to decrease redundancies and increase the efficiency of the supply chain (Wisner and Tan, 2000). In our paper, we establish a micro-foundation to find an appropriate supply chain management model.…”

We divide the supply chain into a central control system (CCS) Research Aim Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a popular approach developed by Charnes et al. (1978) to study the relative performance of peer decision making units (DMUs) in practice. The application of the DEA model has been extended by Banker (1990), Weber and Desai (1996) (2006) and others to measure the relative efficiency of supply chain members. The objective of this paper is to measure the relative efficiency of different types of supply chain. While our research is similar to that of Chen et al. (2006), it also differs from theirs in that their objective function is based on the ratio of outputs and inputs, whereas ours is based on a maximized profit function or a minimized cost function. The objective function adopted in our paper fully reveals the spirit of game theory. Another advantage of our model is that it can be used to discuss supply chain efficiency under different degrees of capital intensity. Finally, Semple (1996) points out that many studies which have connected game theory to the evaluation of DEA efficiency have been found to have limited usefulness in practice. Hence we try to apply game theory to discuss a practical issue regarding the evaluation of supply chain efficiency. Research MotivationIt is well known that the costs of intermediate goods has a direct impact on the prices of final goods. Hence, the decision regarding the intermediate goods price has started to gain attention in the literature. In practice, over half of the profit is eroded by the intermediate goods cost. In order to increase the profitability of a supply chain, an appropriate supply chain management model has been examined by analyzing the external market and a negotiating contract (Cox, 1996). In an appropriate supply chain management model, the purchasers and the suppliers of the intermediate goods should communicate in an effort to decrease redundancies and increase the efficiency of the supply chain (Wisner and Tan, 2000). In our paper, we establish a micro-foundation to find an appropriate supply chain management model. Previous ResearchThe first study that connected game theory to DEA efficiency estimation was that introduced by Banker (1990). His paper, which was basically related to the BCC version of the DEA model, was established by Banker et al. (1984) and was concerned with many kinds of unconstrained two-person zero-sum games. Rousseau and Semple (1995) had a significant breakthrough in this field in that they constructed a new class of constrained two-person zero-sum games which was referred to as the Two-Person Ratio Efficiency Game (TPREG).

“…Most of the recent SCM literature focused on the purchasing function, stating that it was a basic strategic business process, rather than a specialized supporting function (Wisner and Tan, 2000). It was a management philosophy that extended traditional internal activities by adopting an inter-enterprise scope, allowing trading partners together with the common goal of optimization and efficiency (Harwick, 1997).…”
