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.

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.
