Abstract
The main objective of this study is hypothesis testing to explain the nature of the
relationship between the independent variables (The SCOR quality model) and the dependent
variable (Supply Chain Quality Performance) and moderated by (QMS).
Correlation study will be used in this study as to determine the delineating of the
important variables associated with the problems. The study setting is non-contrived and field
study method is proposed to be used in this study. Due to time constraints, in order to answer
the research question, cross sectional study will be used in this study on the part of the
researcher and data collection for this study can be done in just once. Organization analysis
was used in this study.
The study was limited in that it is focused on the Northern Peninsular Malaysia and
manufacturing sector only. Another limitation for this study might be that a self administered
questionnaire data will be collected. There is concern where in the survey study, the actions
done by the respondent might not be the same as being told by them and due personal or
organizational reasons and the respondents might not be able to answer the survey
questionnaire truthfully.
From this study, the relationship of the SCOR quality model and the supply chain
quality performance is established. This will provide further empirical support to existing
models of the factor affecting the supply chain quality performance. Besides, the QMS as
moderator between the SCOR quality model and the supply chain performance is also
established.
This study is useful for managers in a manufacturing industry to practice SCOR
quality model into their daily business practices. Managers might identify the most important
decision from the SCOR quality model to be implemented to enhance or to improve the firm’s
performance.
