Examining Antecedents to Supply Chain Security Effectiveness: An Exploratory Study
基于资源基础观和供应链整合理论，利用调查数据检验了安全管理实践与供应链安全有效性之间的关系，发现内外部整合、节点规划焦点和主动动机与安全有效性正相关。
In recent years there has been increasing emphasis on managing risk and security in supply chains. Despite this emphasis, there have been relatively few empirical studies dealing with this issue. In an attempt to partially address this lack of empirical research, the primary purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between security management practices and the perceived effectiveness of supply chain security. With a resource-based view of the firm and supply chain integration as theoretical underpinnings, the study utilized survey data to test propositions derived from the security literature. Internal and external integration efforts, a nodal planning focus, and proactive motivations related to security measures were found to be positively related to security effectiveness. The article concludes with implications for security stakeholders including suggestions for future research.
