The aim of study is to explore and propose the role of outcome, interaction, and environmental quality in the interfaces gap of service quality in the presence of third party logistics on supply chain competitiveness with mediating role of relationship quality. It is a propositional paper, in which the implications of service quality parameters in the interfaces within the supply chain are hypothesised and proposed to study and empirically investigated in future. A very few studies of service quality in the context of whole supply chain integration, collaboration, and performance exist in the supply chain literature.
