Management by nature is interdisciplinary; these areas certainly have overwhelming impact on management and its related problems. In order to achieve better solution, which can be leveraged to gain competitive advantage, a focused pursued into these interdisciplinary avenue need to be investigated, collaborated and be given primary in solution centric diagnostic approach. System approach also advocates this thinking and raises the curiosity, how things influence one another within overall organization in holistic perspective. This paper investigates the importance of interdisciplinary research, critically analyze different research paradigms and research methodology for perusing such researches. In the paper firstly different research paradigm and approaches have been discussed and after proposing the appropriate methodology, the research paradigm for supply chain management research including detailed research design has been proposed.Keywords
