Abstract The academic community and practitioners widely recognize the significance of risk management and integrative practices in supply chains to deal with complexity and uncertainties faced. Firms strive to manage risk, handle unexpected disruptions and improve performance in ever changing uncertain business environments. This paper builds upon the information processing view of risk management and explores the association between supply chain integration (SCI) and supply chain risk management (SCRM) to improve operational performance. Subsequently, the mediating role played by SCRM between SCI and firms’ operational performance is examined. In this paper, covariance-based structural equation modeling is applied to test the developed hypotheses using data of 931 manufacturing companies obtained from the sixth version of International Manufacturing Strategy Survey (IMSS VI). The findings of the study suggest that internal, supplier and customer integration positively effects SCRM whereas the impact of internal integration is also partially mediated by supplier and customer integration. Additionally, the results present that SCRM partially mediates the relationship between internal integration and operational performance and fully mediates the association between supplier and customer integration and operational performance. This paper contributes to research by proposing and empirically testing a holistic framework demonstrating the effects of SCI on SCRM, and consequently on performance outcomes to develop theoretical and managerial implications.

供应链风险管理和运营绩效：供应链整合的促成作用

摘要 学术界和从业者广泛认识到风险管理和供应链中的综合实践对于应对所面临的复杂性和不确定性的重要性。公司努力在不断变化的不确定商业环境中管理风险、处理意外中断并提高绩效。本文基于风险管理的信息处理观点，探讨了供应链集成 (SCI) 与供应链风险管理 (SCRM) 之间的关联，以提高运营绩效。随后，考察了 SCRM 在 SCI 与企业经营绩效之间的中介作用。在本文中，使用基于协方差的结构方程模型，使用从第六版国际制造战略调查 (IMSS VI) 中获得的 931 家制造公司的数据来检验所提出的假设。研究结果表明，内部、供应商和客户整合对 SCRM 产生积极影响，而内部整合的影响也部分由供应商和客户整合介导。此外，结果表明，SCRM 部分中介了内部整合和运营绩效之间的关系，完全中介了供应商和客户整合与运营绩效之间的关联。本文通过提出和实证测试一个整体框架来促进研究，证明 SCI 对 SCRM 的影响，
