This paper investigates the influence of supply chain integration (SCI) on delivery performance and the moderating effect on this relationship of international sourcing. The results of our analysis based on the HPM data set confirm the positive relationship between SCI and delivery performance and also show that the impact of SCI is positively moderated by the extent of use of international suppliers. Thus, firms should lever on SCI especially when relying on an international supplier network to reduce the high level of uncertainty tied with unreliable suppliers’ deliveries

Abstract
This paper investigates the influence of supply chain integration (SCI) on delivery performance and the moderating effect on this relationship of international sourcing. The results of our analysis based on the HPM data set confirm the positive relationship between SCI and delivery performance and also show that the impact of SCI is positively moderated by the extent of use of international suppliers. Thus, firms should lever on SCI especially when relying on an international supplier network to reduce the high level of uncertainty tied with unreliable suppliers’ deliveries
