    The impact of information sharing on organisational performance: a supply chain perspective.
    (Taylor and Francis, 2021) Doumbia, M.O.; Awudu, I.; Yakubu, M.; Ganideh, S.F.A.
    Information sharing has been cited as one of the major means to enhance supply chain performance. It allows companies to better coordinate their activities with their supply chain partners that lead to increased performance. This study conceptualises and assesses several factors that influence the degree of information sharing in supply chains, namely integrated information technologies, internal integration, information quality and costs–benefits sharing. The relationship between the degree of information sharing and organisational performance is then tested. Data from 150 manufacturing companies were collected and proposed relationships are examined using structural equation modelling. The results show that integrated information technologies and information quality have positive influence on the intensity of information sharing. However, internal integration and costs–benefits sharing do not relate to the intensity of information sharing. This study finds that information sharing does not directly relate to organisational performance. Its relationship is mediated by collaboration practices with supply chain partners. This suggests that information sharing is essential but insufficient by itself to bring significant performance improvements.

    Pharmaceutical supply chain management practices and organizational performance: A Ghanaian perspective,
    (IGI Global, 2021) Doumbia, M.O.; Awudu, I.; Yakubu, M.; Gonela, V.
    The purpose of this paper is to use empirical data to examine the effect of supply chain management practices on organizational performance of pharmaceutical firms in a developing country. The conceptual model was based on supply chain management practices. Purposive sampling was used to gather data from cross section of pharmaceutical firms. Partial least square (PLS) structural equation modelling (SEM) approach was used to test the relationship among the constructs. The results show a strong statistically significant positive relationship between supply chain management practice and organizational performance. Supply chain performance was used as a mediating variable, but the result was inconsequential, and it had no effect on the relationship between supply chain management practices and organizational performance.
