Supply chain has become an important topic which emphasis on variables that might affect the company and the new product development. This study aims to determine the relationship between some of the supply chain variables that might affect the growth of new product development for the manufacturing industries. There are many important factors in the supply chain where it has contributed to the new product development success. For this study, the factors that been identified are the communication, logistics, supply chain strategy, product development strategy and the top management supports. A total of 238 respondents in various companies within the manufacturing industry in Malaysia’s manufacturing sectors has participated in this study by completing the questionnaire survey. SPSS was use to analyze the data and hypothesis testing using several statistical analysis such as reliability analysis, correlation and regression analysis. From this analysis, the supply chain variables showed a significant relationship to the successful new product development in the view of Malaysian manufacturing sectors. It is hope that this study will be beneficial the others in understanding the key terms and can be implement into the new product development so that it is become more successful
