The aim of this study is to find out the better type of SC(Supply Chain) structure for SCM performance based on the previous SCM studies.
To achieve the objectives above, three hypotheses have been proposed. First, SC structure types affect SCM success factors. Second, SC structure types affect SCM performance. Third, SCM success factors have a positive impact on SCM performance
Research findings are;
First, modularized structure and flexible structure make more significant uses of SCM success factors than rigid structure and postponed structure. Second, modularized structure and flexible structure achieve better SCM performance than rigid structure and postponed structure. Third, SCM success factors have a positive impact on SCM performance. However, the combination of SCM success factors influencing each SCM performance are different.
In conclusion, it is suggested that Korean export manufacturers should make an effort to collaborate with their vendors and customers to improve SCM performance with the optimized combination of SCM success factors under modularized structure or flexible structure.
