Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present the findings of a systematic literature review carried out for the period (1996-2015) for the theme of ‘supply chain management and firm performance’. A systematic literature review process was conducted by which two databases were consulted and after filtering the data, 183 papers were selected for analysis. The findings point out that the research is conservative in its selection of theories, methodologies and topics, with the RBV, survey questionnaire and ‘SC integration and its impact on financial and operational performance’ being a typical research title. Future research avenues are identified as counteracting this trend, i.e. by the use of more novel theories, methods and topics, which could illuminate future research directions.
