Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study empirically examined the relationship between internal supply chain structure and operational performance, using survey data collected from 108 Japanese manufacturers. In terms of structural properties, we focused on "formalization" and "centralization". As the results of structural equation modeling, the correlation between centralization of operational tasks and centralization of strategic tasks, the impacts of centralization of both tasks on formalization, and the effect of formalization on responsiveness performance were demonstrated. In addition, the reasons for formalization not positively influencing efficiency performance were explored through follow-up interviews.
