Abstract
The development of co‐ordinated global manufacturing is an
important approach to enhancing competitiveness. However, global
manufacturing strategies provide the greatest competitive advantage when
they are appropriately supported through key value‐added logistics and
purchasing activities. Examines the relationship between global
manufacturing and strategic advantage, emphasizing the need to establish
adequate logistics and purchasing support. Presents a conceptual
overview of the topic and reports the results of a survey‐based
empirical study. Objectives are to examine the state of current
logistics and purchasing practice as they relate to supporting the
global network, and to evaluate the performance of these key activities
as they support global operations.
