Abstract:
This research aims to examine the relationships between supply chain quality management (SCQM), organizational learning capability (OLC) and product innovation performance (PIP) among small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMMEs). This is a quantitative study in which 163 valid responses were empirically collected from SMMEs via self-administered structured questionnaires. Performing a partial least squares–structural equation modelling analysis, the findings revealed that the relationships between SCQM, OLC and PIP are positive and significant. Serving as a practical guideline, the results of this study stress the fact that managers of SMMEs need to look into the role-specific context of the firm before determining which practices would be effective for their companies. This research represents another leap towards redefining and advancing SCQM, especially for SMMEs.
