Abstract

We develop an empirical taxonomy of supply chain management (SCM) practices grounded in the capability-based view. Three groups-transactional SCM, translational SCM, and relational SCM-were identified using cluster analysis of data collected from over 200 U.S. manufacturing firms. We explain the differences among these groups and their relationship to improvements in supplier and buyer performance. Finally, we discuss implications for research and practice in SCM.
