TLDR
The findings of both the contingency and configuration approach indicated that SCI was related to both operational and business performance, and indicated that internal and customer integration were more strongly related to improving performance than supplier integration.

International e-commerce for fashion products: what is the relationship with performance?

Laura Macchion, +5 more
- 14 Jul 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse whether the adoption of e-commerce improves company business, innovation and operational performance and whether sales internationalisation might moderate this relationship and also investigate whether the sales internationalization might moderate the relationship between E-commerce and performance, the findings reveal that adoption of these tools might even be negative when applied at the international level in particular by considering innovation operational practices, and the research suggests for fashion companies the necessity to develop strong markets knowledge and brand awareness among foreign markets and customers before investing internationally.

Q1. What have the authors contributed in "The impact of supply chain integration on performance: a contingency and configuration approach" ?

This study extends the developing body of literature on supply chain integration ( SCI ), which is the degree to which a manufacturer strategically collaborates with its supply chain partners and collaboratively manages intraand inter-organizational processes, in order to achieve effective and efficient flows of products and services, information, money and decisions, to provide maximum value to the customer. The authors study the relationship between three dimensions of SCI, operational and business performance, from both a contingency and a configuration perspective. Furthermore, the results indicated that internal and customer integration were more strongly related to improving performance than supplier integration. 

While their study makes a significant contribution to the SCI literature and has important implications for practice, there are some limitations and opportunities for future studies. Because integration between customers, suppliers and manufacturers is developed over time, it will be fruitful for future research to examine the evolution of SCI patterns in a longitudinal fashion. Second, because the data were only collected from manufacturers, future studies can broaden their scope by collecting data from all supply chain partners, including suppliers, manufacturers and customers. Future research should examine cross-cultural differences in the relationship between SCI and performance. 

To obtain a representative sample, the authors used the Yellow Pages of China Telecom in each of the four mainland China cities and the directory of the Chinese Manufacturers Association in Hong Kong as their sampling pool. 

Devaraj et al. (2007) found that customer integration did not have a significant direct effect on operational performance, but only moderated the effect of supplier integration on operationalperformance. 

To further assess common method bias, confirmatory factor analysis was applied to Harman’s single-factor model (Sanchez and Brock, 1996). 

The estimates for the average variance extracted (AVE) were higher than 0.50 for four constructs, and 0.46 for the fifth construct. 

The third step assessed the relationship between two- and three-way interactions of internal, customer and supplier integration and operational or business performance, in order to determine whether there was a moderating effect. 

Supplier integration may not contribute to operational performance directly, but instead interacts with customer integration in improving operational performance, reflecting the importance of manufacturers’ integration with both downstream and upstream supply chain partners.
