dc.description.abstract | Purpose: The clarification of the constructs of the supply chain integration (clients, suppliers,
external and internal), the creation of a measurement instrument based on a list of items taken
from earlier papers, the validation of these scales and a preliminary benchmark to interpret the
scales by percentiles based on a set of control variables (size of the plant, country, sector and
degree of vertical integration).
Design/methodology/approach: Our empirical analysis is based on the HPM project database (2005-
2007 timeframe). The international sample is made up of 266 plants across ten countries:
Austria, Canada, Finland, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Spain, Sweden and the USA. In each
country. We analized the descriptive statistics, internal consistency testing to purify the items
(inter-item correlations, Cronbach’s alpha, squared multiple correlation, corrected item-total
correlation), exploratory factor analysis, and finally, a confirmatory factor analysis to check the
convergent and discriminant validity of the scales. The analyses will be done with the SPSS and
EQS programme using the maximum likelihood parameter estimation method.
Findings: The four proposed scales show excellent psychometric properties.
Research limitations/implications: with a clearer and more concise designation of the supply chain
integration measurement scales more reliable and accurate data could be taken to analyse the
relations between these constructs with other variables of interest to the academic l fields.
-Practical implications: providing scales that are valid as a diagnostic tool for best practices, as well
as providing a benchmark with which to compare the score for each individual plant against a
collection of industrial companies from the machinery, electronics and transportation sectors.
Originality/value: supply chain integration may be a major factor in explaining the performance
of companies. The results are nevertheless inconclusive, the vast range of results obtained are
due, amongst other things, to the fact that there is no exactness to the group of scales used, noone
has yet published an analysis of the measurement models nor clear benchmarks as to the
variety of the scales used. | es |
