Abstract

This investigation assessed the association between factors of supply chain integration and organizational performance by including supply chain dimensions (internal supply chain process lean practices, technology compatibility, quality of information sharing). A qualitative research method was adopted to explain the effect of independent variables on dependent variables. Data was collected using a questionnaire through a random sampling technique. The analysis was performed utilizing SPSS version 25. This research provides a unique picture of how important the independent variables are for better organizational performance. Where two hypotheses were rejected, and two were accepted. The results are substantial for manufacturing organization managers to improve supply chain integration and achieve a competitive position in the industry by enhancing their organizational performance.
