The prime objective of the currents study, is to investigate the link between supply chain integration (SCI) and Internal Supply chain performance (ISCP). Apart of investigation the impact on internal performance of integrated supply chain, the current study is also interested in investigating the mediating role of Supply Chain flexibility (SCF) in the relationship between SCI and supply chain internal performance ISCP. The structural equation modeling which a twostep process i.e. inner model assessment and outer model assessment is and is an upgraded version of multiple regression is used to answer the research questions. The current study has used the AMOS to analyze the data collected from production managers of Indonesian manufacturing firms. The findings of the study have revealed the fact that SCI has significant impact on the internal supply chain performance (ISCP). The SCF has significantly mediated the relationship between SCI and ISCP. The study will be helpful for policy makers in researcher in understanding the issues related to supply chain, its integration, flexibility, and internal performance.

Risk management is major part of every enterprise. Proper risk management in all the department of an organization is one of the guaranties of success. However, Indonesian supply chain companies are lacking in information system (IS) risk management implementation. These companies are facing internal and external issues due to which the performance of Indonesian supply chain companies is not up to the mark. Thus, the objective of this study is to examine the role of internal and external factors in supply chain IS risk management implementation. Thus, the data is collected by collaborating with supply chain employees in Indonesia. Accordingly, primary data is used in this study to approach end results. Results of the study highlighted that various internal and external factors have important relationship with supply chain IS risk management implementation. Internal factor namely; organization culture and management commitment have positive effect on IS risk management implementation. External factor, namely; competitive pressure also has important role. Additionally, organization structure is one of the factors which strengthen the positive relationship of management commitment and supply chain IS risk management implementation.

In the global competitive environment, metallurgical industries reach progress through cuts in production costs. In this light, the priorities to boost ferroalloy manufacturing include the effective innovative material- and energy-saving technologies, which are applied to alternative carbonaceous reducing agents used in ferroalloy production. Additionally to a regression model for predicting the average annual world prices for steel, this article assesses the economic efficiency of using weak coking coals in ferroalloy manufacturing. This study also explores the relationship between supply chain management and production cost considered a key factor in supply chain management. The factors influencing price behaviour are the capacity of the world metallurgical plants and the price for coking coal. The economic efficiency of using high-ash coking coal to produce ferroalloys was studied on the ferrosilicoaluminium (FeSiAl) FS55A20 against the ferrosilicon FS75. The comparative analysis was performed using economic-mathematical modelling. The commercial efficiency of investment projects was studied using statistical (payback period) and dynamic (net present value) methods. Based on these factors, the steel price forecast was made for 2019–2023. In ferroalloy manufacturing, the shift from ferrosilicon FS75 to ferrosilicoaluminium FS55A20 will bring a profit of USD 2.1 million annually. The average payback period for investments in the project was 2 years. The calculated net present value of the project was USD 2.4 million. The analysis resulted in the outline of the main factors to consider when choosing a strategy of supply chain management.

The aim of this study was to investigate the profitability of variable reduction methods for predicting the risk of the stock price drop of companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. To achieve this, the literature review was conducted and 24 primary variables were selected which were most frequently used in the literature and the required data for measuring them was available. The optimum variables were selected or extracted among the primary variables using variable selection methods (the correlation-based method and the relief method) and variable extraction methods (the factor analysis and the principal component analysis). Then, the risk of stock price fall for 101 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange was predicted for 2001-2015 using linear regression. In order to evaluate the performanceof the variable reduction methods, the evaluation criteria resulting from prediction using variables selected or extracted by these methods were compared with criteria resulting from prediction using all variables. Findings of the research indicated the profitability of variable reduction methods and significant differences between profitability levels of different methods. The results obtained from the investigation of the performance of different methods of prediction and variable reduction in the industry group indicated the effect of the type of industry on the prediction performance. Furthermore, the results of the prediction of returns during 2001-2015 showed that the performance of prediction was higher in some years and lower in some other years compared to the results of the collective investigation of the supply chain of companies in this period.

Abstract The purpose of the paper is to explore the relationship between the nature of product and respective supply chain strategy of the firms operation in manufacturing sector. The relationship is investigated by using the fishers model as conceptual framework. Data was collected through questionnaire-based self-administered survey. The results of the survey were analysed by testing the fishers model related to Supply Chain Strategy and product characteristics. The results of the study indicated that there is a significant relationship between nature of the product and supply chain strategy in manufacturing sector of Pakistan. The practical implication can be derived by the policy makers and practitioners of the supply chain strategy domain that characteristics of the product can have an impact of the decision to device supply chain strategy.

Abstract-There is no particular model for economic management in Iran. In the current circumstances where Iranian economy is under international embargos, resistance economy can guarantee national independence by acting as a model for domestic economy. Development of intellectual capital is the main criterion of national development and can also introduce synergy in resistance economy. The present paper aims to propose a comprehensive model for resistance economy based on the role of intellectual capital in Iran and the operations and information management via a mixed research method. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of information values in the value chain on gaining competitive advantage by considering the effect of the strategic alignment of the IT program and the organization's strategies. First, the Supreme Leaders views on resistance economy, library references, and semi-structured interviews with 15 faculty membersselected using purposive samplingwere analyzed using the grounded theory. The concepts derived from case studies were categorized as 475 and 61 primary and final concepts, respectively, and then modeled and classified as 30 influential parameters in four aspects of capital (human, psychological, social, and spiritual capital). In addition, the tests were verified and the model was validated via quantitative data analysis.
