The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the literature covering the area of Supply Chain Integration (SCI), Supply Chain Performance (SCP) and other Supply Chain Management Factors (OSCMFs) in Supply Chain Management (SCM). Supply Chain Integration (SCI) is considered one of the major factors in improving supply chain performance. It is provoked by the increasing attention the two fields of SCI and SCP have recently attained, stimulated by an augmenting competitive pressure companies are facing. For supply chain practitioners to realize the existing potentials, effective SCI are necessary. In order to facilitate future research in the field of SCI, which consequently also benefits practitioners; it is necessary to consolidate the extant literature. To do so and to identify promising avenues for future research is the purpose of this article. We provide a literature review that covers the main aspects of SCI, SCP and OSCMFs in context of SCM. To account for quality of publication, the analysis is restricted to top international journals.

Abstract


The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the literature covering the area of Supply Chain Integration (SCI), Supply Chain Performance (SCP) and other Supply Chain Management Factors (OSCMFs) in Supply Chain Management (SCM). Supply Chain Integration (SCI) is considered one of the major factors in improving supply chain performance. It is provoked by the increasing attention the two fields of SCI and SCP have recently attained, stimulated by an augmenting competitive pressure companies are facing. For supply chain practitioners to realize the existing potentials, effective SCI are necessary. In order to facilitate future research in the field of SCI, which consequently also benefits practitioners; it is necessary to consolidate the extant literature. To do so and to identify promising avenues for future research is the purpose of this article. We provide a literature review that covers the main aspects of SCI, SCP and OSCMFs in context of SCM. To account for quality of publication, the analysis is restricted to top international journals.
