Abstract

Cooperation between companies, such as manufacturers and suppliers, can stabilize raw material procurement, ensuring the production process meets customer needs. Companies need to adopt quality management to innovate processes and products and achieve good performance. This study aims to examine the influence of supplier-buyer collaboration on firm performance through product innovation, process innovation, and Quality Management Adoption.  Distribution of questionnaires to 103 manufacturing companies in East Java using purposive sampling techniques. The results of data processing using PLS version 4 software found that supplier-buyer collaboration has a direct influence on quality management adoption and innovation processes, but not on product innovation. The quality management adoption that is formed has a direct impact on the innovation process, product innovation, and firm performance. Companies that innovate processes can also innovate products, thereby further improving company performance. Periodic product innovation can enhance a firm's performance. The practical contribution of this research provides top management with insight to commit to building sustainable collaboration with suppliers to support innovation processes and quality management systems. It is recommended that companies adopt the ISO system to implement a standard quality system as needed. Terrorist contributions can strengthen the integration of quality management and supply chain management within the framework of a resource-based view.

Abstract

Businesses always compete to improve customer satisfaction. A firm engaged in as a distributor as well, always try to provide satisfaction to their customer, in this case, retailer and wholesales. The distributor can improve retailer satisfaction by providing such information that suits retailer requirements in the pursuit that the supply chain flow can move quickly, particularly on the flow of products from the manufacturing ordered by the distributors. This study aims to obtain a relationship between distributors and retailer companies. This study surveyed 100 retailers, and wholesale companies engaged in Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) and the supplier domiciled in the city of Makassar, South Sulawesi, with revenues of more than IDR 300,000,000. - / year. SmartPLS software version 2.0 was used to test the hypothesis. The results of the study found that information quality can provide a positive increase in improving supplier relationship management. Adequate information quality cannot significantly increase supply chain flexibility and retailer satisfaction. Supplier relationship management built by distributors can have an impact of 0.611 on supply chain flexibility in retail and retail satisfaction companies of 0.367. The stronger distributor and retailer relationship can increase distributor flexibility and retail satisfaction. Supply chain flexibility built by distributor companies can have a significant impact on retailer satisfaction of 0.463. This research provides an improvement in the development of supply chain management theory, in particular, building relationships with customers.

Abstract

Manufacturing companies have adopted information technology to create integrated systems that facilitate coordination within the company and with external partners. This demonstrates the company's ability to generate supply chain resilience to address current global uncertainties. The study obtained data from 112 respondents from manufacturing companies in Indonesia using purposive sampling. The data were processed using PLS with an outer model test, which met the validity and reliability requirements. The results of the research hypothesis testing showed that information technology adoption plays a significant role in improving purchasing strategy, production flexibility, and supply chain responsiveness. Purchasing strategies that segment purchasing categories and involve suppliers in problem-solving can increase production flexibility but do not directly affect supply chain responsiveness. Production flexibility in a company's operations directly impacts supply chain responsiveness and resilience. Purchasing strategy and supply chain responsiveness contribute to supply chain resilience by developing capabilities. Companies can routinely identify risks and recover from disruptions. Practical contributions can provide management insights into building corporate resilience by aligning purchasing strategies, production flexibility, and supply chain responsiveness to optimize information technology for internal and external integration.

Abstract

Research Aims: This study aims to analyse the influence of top management's commitment on competitive advantage through supply chain digitalisation, responsiveness, and resiliency. Design/Methodology/Approach: Data were collected using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire distributed to manufacturing practitioners with a minimum supervisory position. A total of 203 valid questionnaires were analysed. Data processing was performed using SmartPLS version 4.0 to test measurement and structural models. Research Findings: The study results indicate that eight hypotheses are accepted and one is rejected. Top management commitment positively impacts supply chain digitalisation, responsiveness, and resilience. Furthermore, supply chain digitalisation and supply chain resilience both positively impact competitive advantage. However, supply chain responsiveness did not affect competitive advantage. Theoretical Contribution/Originality: This research makes a theoretical contribution to the study of digital technology adoption in supply chain management. Digital technology adoption enhances companies' competitive advantage. Managerial Implications in the South East Asian Context: In Southeast Asia, there is still low integration, limited digitalisation, and vulnerability to supply chain disruption. The results of this study provide insight into the role of top management in initiating the adoption of digital technology to strengthen resilience and supply chain responsiveness, thereby improving competitive advantage. Research Limitation and Implications: This study has limitations, particularly on the research sample, which is located in East Java, Indonesia. Hence, the study results may not be valid in other countries.
