- W27560508 abstract "The main objective of this research is to explore collaboration in the Malaysian pineapple supply chains. The research focuses on understanding the key factors that determine inter-organizational collaboration and the interaction of these factors on the level of collaboration and its performance. The basic research question is “How does supply chain collaboration improves the performance of the Malaysian pineapple supply chain?” The review of literature shows that supply chain management is acknowledged as having a positive impact on chain performance, particularly in the highly competitive agri-food environment. Effective supply chain management is imperative for the success of the companies involved and collaboration is the driving force. Despite the benefits of implementing collaboration, which has been examined in different ways and under different condition, little is known about collaboration from the holistic viewpoint. Therefore, this investigation identifies the supply chain management’s main components (i.e. product characteristics, business process, information sharing, chain position and embedded business relationships). Furthermore, collaboration in the agri-food sector in developing countries has yet to be fully described. The concept of supply chain management is embedded with Relationship Marketing and Transaction Cost Theory to underpin the conceptual framework for the research. The framework, that provided the focus and boundaries of research, was designed to integrate the identified components of supply chain management and the interaction of these factors on the level of collaboration and its performance. In this research, the paradigm is mainly constructivist and blended partly with the pragmatist approach. Two pineapple supply chains (PSC1 and PSC2) were selected as case studies in the Malaysian context; ones focuses on the local market and the other focuses on the export market. The research takes a qualitative approach and the primary data used in this research was obtained from semi-structured interviews. In total, 53 interviews were conducted with a range of people within focal supply chains and networks during the three field trips, between September 2011 and December 2012. The research used thematic analysis to examine the data. The levels of analysis were dyadic exchange, supply chain and network. The research produced a number of findings. First, it provided empirical evidence that trust and commitment are the two most important variables in business relationships that lead to collaboration. Second, it found that there are various levels of collaboration along the chain and between chains and these influence the performance outcomes. Third, that collaboration is perceived to have a positive impact on supply chains performance although the perceptions of performance are different from one actor to another. In one of the supply chains, collaboration is practiced as a ‘culture’ of their businesses. Lastly, a conceptual model was developed based on the framework and adapted in parallel with the findings. Overall these findings provide evidence of the importance of collaboration in improving the performance of supply chain. In addition, this research develops recommendations in order to improve collaboration within the Malaysian pineapple industry." @default.
