Abstract

In cement industry, mature companies focusing on economies of scale, operating in an oligopolistic market, selling a product with high density and low value-to-weight ratio, has neglected supply chain management to realise cost reductions. Because the cement industry relies on asset utilization , supply chain management provides opportunity for market differentiation, cost reduction and value generation. This is the reason effective Supply Chain Management (SCM) has become a potentially valuable way of securing Competitive Edge and improving organisational performance since competition is no longer between organisations, but among supply chains. This paper attempts to critically analyse the factors that are responsible for meaningful relationship between organisational performance, Competitive Edge and supply chain management practices.
