Abstract

The study is intended to carry out to examine the mediating effect of the key supplier relationship management (KSRM) practices in the relationship between the supply chain orientation (SCO) and the organizational buying effectiveness (OBE). The study has used the SEM-PLS as a statistical tool to analyses the data. The findings of the study indicate that the value creation for customers is influenced through these dimensions of OBE in the following aspects: Value-oriented Purchasing: there is need for the purchasing managers to focus on the downstream supply chain side (customer) other than the upstream side during the procurement activities. Lateral involvement: specific knowledge is possessed by the employees of different departments related to the nature of products, which are purchased. Therefore, a deep insight is offered by them in the process of purchasing reflecting the qualities of products to be valuable for the customers. Information Sharing in Purchasing: distinct information is possessed by different employees on customer value. Purchasing effectiveness can be improved through sharing of information. The study which is among the pioneering studies in the issue will be helpful for the policy makers and researchers in understanding the issues related to key supplier relationship management (KSRM), supply chain orientation (SCO) and the organizational buying effectiveness.

Abstract

The main objective of the study is to investigate the impact of the supply chain innovation, supply chain transaction cost, supply chain risk and supply chain responsiveness as antecedents of the supply base and its complexity. The study attempted to understand the way in which transaction costs, supplier responsiveness, supplier innovation, and supply risk are affected by the supply base complexity, and the study also expressed them in liner relationships. With the supply base complexity, it became easier to understand ways for managing supply base. Therefore, the study is among the pioneering studies on the issues. So, current study has used SEM-PLS as statistical tool to answer the research questions raised in this study and research objectives envisaged in the current study. The findings of the current study have provided support to with the hypothesized results. This study will be helpful for policymakers and researchers in examining the link between supply chain innovation, supply chain transaction cost, supply chain risk and supply chain responsiveness as antecedents of the supply base and its complexity.
