The Relationships between Supply Chain Agility and Supply Chain Performance under the Moderating Role of Environment Uncertainty

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine the impact of supply chain agility on supply chain performance under the moderating effect of environment uncertainty. Considering theresearch’s objectives; this study tested the direct effect of supply chain agility on supply chain performance, and the moderating effect of environmental uncertainty on supply chain agility and supply chain performance. Data was collected through online surveys from supply chain managers of the manufacturing firms. Analysis was performed on 317 responses. The findings showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between supply chain agility and supply chain performance. Environment uncertainty also has a significant and positive moderating effect on supply chain agility and supply chain performance. Based on the study’s findings, implications for theory and practice are presented at the end.
