Representing, Organizing and Reusing Knowledge About Functional and Non-Functional Concerns During Software Development
Abstract
Though there is a wide acceptance of the strategic importance of integrating operations with suppliers and customers in supply chains, many questions remain unanswered about how best to using information systems to support supply chain activities. Is it more important to link with suppliers, customers, or both? Similarly, we know little about the integration between business planning for supply chain activities and information system planning for using IS to support SCM and improved supply chain performance. This paper empirically addressed these questions, and found (1) a positive link between BP-ISP integration and IS usage in supply chain activities, and (2) High IS usage in supply chain activities improved supply chain performance. Findings from this study contribute to our theoretical understanding of implement change in contemporary supply chains, and have important implication for manufacturers interested in improving their supply chain’s performance using information systems.
