Abstract

Supply chain transparency is an underdeveloped area in the literature. Accordingly, this manuscript explores supply chain transparency, its relationship to risk management and knowledge creation, and its value chain application from a Responsiveness View of logistics and supply chain management. Specifically, we examine supply chain transparency as an important antecedent to responsiveness, considering strategic dimensions of adaptability (structural adjustment) and flexibility (policy adjustment). Drawing on the responsiveness and knowledge-based views, a model is proposed and evaluated using data collected from supply chain professionals. The results reveal that supply chain transparency drives knowledge creation and mediates the relationship between a firm’s risk management and responsiveness. Specifically, transparency and knowledge creation partially mediate the relationship between flexibility and risk management.
