Description
Summary:<p>This study aimed to assess the key determinants of sustainable supply chain management</p><p>(SSCM) (i.e., sustainable supplier management (SSM), sustainable operation</p><p>management (SOM), and sustainable customer management (SCM) and examined their</p><p>impact on sustainable performance (SP) (i.e., economic performance (ECP), social</p><p>performance (SCP), and environmental performance (ENP)). Furthermore, this study</p><p>investigated the mediating effect of sustainability governance (SSG) between SSCM and</p><p>SP. A purposive sampling was used in this cross-sectional study through an online survey</p><p>among managers of ISO 14001-certified Malaysian manufacturing organizations using an</p><p>online questionnaire. Following a pilot test, an online survey was used to obtain 348</p><p>survey responses. After the data screening, only 328 responses were retained for analysis.</p><p>The obtained data were analysed by employing PLS-SEM approach using SmartPLS</p><p>3.3.2 software. Results revealed that ECP (R2=0.540), SCP (R2=0.597), and ENP</p><p>(R2=0.558) were directly influenced by SSCM and SSG. This study reported a</p><p>significant effect of SSM on SCP (=0.319, t-value=6.129, p-value=0.000) and ENP</p><p>(=0.340, t-value=7.225, p-value=0.000). However, the relationship between SSM and</p><p>ECP was insignificant (=0.078, t-value=1.362, p-value=0.174). This study stated the</p><p>significant effect of SOM on ECP (=0.249, t-value=3.039, p-value=0.002), SCP</p><p>(=0.222, t-value=3.165, p-value=0.002) and ENP (=0.216, t-value=2.991, pvalue=</p><p>0.003). This study also indicated significant relationship between SCM and SCP</p><p>(=0.352, t-value=6.637, p-value=0.000). Nevertheless, the effect of SCM on ECP</p><p>(=0.126, t-value=1.903, p-value=0.058) and ENP (=0.033, t-value=0.055, pvalue=</p><p>0.544) was found as insignificant. Furthermore, results revealed that SSG partially</p><p>mediated the relationship between SSM to SCP (VAF=0.2295) and ENP (VAF=0.2587)</p><p>and SOM to ECP (VAF=0.2742), SCP (VAF=0.3138) and ENP (VAF=0.2340). In</p><p>conclusion, sustainable supply chain management and SSG are significantly important to</p><p>improve the sustainable performance of organisations. Hence, this study identifies the</p><p>need for incorporating sustainable practices and SSG in manufacturing organizations that</p><p>not only influence ENP and SCP but also increase ECP for the organization</p>
