Integration put to the test by Supply Chain globalization strategies: What impact on performance?

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to identify, in a context marked by the globalization of markets, the main explanatory variables of the integration of Supply Chains. More specifically, it will attempt on the one hand to provide a better understanding of the determinants of integration, and on the other hand, to identify their impact on the variables "Costs, Quality, Deadlines", as being key factors The economic performance of integrated Supply Chain players. In addition, this research aims to lead to a theoretical conceptual model highlighting the explanatory variables and the variables to be explained representing the problem of the integration of Supply Chains and its impact on performance.
