Abstract

Even though an increasing number of firms have seen Supply Chain Management (SCM) as a major component of competitive strategy for enhanced organizational productivity, very few companies have successfully achieved this. Mentzer et al. ( 2004) presented a conceptual map highlighting the importance of SCM as an antecedent to performance. Current research attempted to empirically validate this in Sri Lanka by studying 30 Sri Lankan-based supply chains and found evidence of performance enhancement through SCM while identifying industry best practices.
