The Influence of the Supply Chain Integration on the Level of Implementation of e-Business Capabilities

Abstract

This paper analyzes the influence of the supply chain integration on the level of implementation of e-business capabilities. For this reason, we rely on the relationship between information technology implementation and efficiency being determined by the use of technology and on that of supply chain strategy, by business strategy and e-business adoption. Results from a survey in the automotive industry show that the integration of physical flows in the supply chain has a strong influence on the level of implementation of e-business capabilities.
