摘要：
The study assessed the effect of supply chain risks and organisational competitiveness in corporate timber manufacturing companies in Mutare metropolitan region, Zimbabwe. The study was guided by the resource-based theory and a positivist philosophy. A cross-sectional descriptive survey was utilized. Data was gathered from respondents using structured questionnaires. Reliability of data was checked using Cronbach’s alpha (α). Five Hypotheses were tested using structural equation modelling having satisfied the validity and normality tests. SPSS® version 21 and AMOS® version 21 was used for data analysis. The research found a statistically significant correlation between manufacturing uncertainty, customer failure deliveries, and supplier malperformance on organisational competitiveness. An increase in manufacturing uncertainty, customer failure deliveries, and supplier malperformance negatively affected organisational competitiveness. The analysis also showed that strategic supply partnerships with services or products suppliers improve efficiency and productivity since this brings sustainability and subsequently influencing organisational performance. In order to promote organisational growth, the research suggested that outsourcing distribution function has a positive influence on organisational performance. It can be concluded that innovation plays a significant role in mitigating the negative impact of supply chain risks on organizational competitiveness. This suggests that organizations should invest in innovation to develop new products, services, and processes that can help them to adapt to supply chain risks and maintain their competitiveness. © The Author(s) 2023.
