Abstract

Purpose

The main purpose of this study is to examine the influence of two characteristics of supply chain management (SCM) (resilience and integration) on new product performance (NPP) via the mediation of marketing innovation orientation.

Design/methodology/approach

This study was designed by the quantitative method, and the research model was developed based on the resource-based view (RBV) theory of 211 managers from Israeli firms using SmartPls3 software.

Findings

The main finding that emerges from this study is that marketing innovation orientation serves as a full mediator in the relationship between supply chain resilience (SCR) and NPP as well as in the relationship between supply chain integration (SCI) and NPP. Thus, companies that wish to achieve a competitive advantage over their rivals should improve and strengthen their marketing innovation orientation. By doing so, they enhance the relationship between SCM and NPP.

Practical implications

The findings provide an applicable guideline for marketing managers. Managers should be ready to adapt to customers’ demands, environmental changes and, most importantly, disruptive events in a dynamic environment.

Originality/value

The current study sheds light on the mechanism for NPP via integrating suppliers, customers and the organization. So, managers should adopt SCR and integration to strengthen their marketing innovation orientation in order to achieve NPP.

This study aims to examine the impact of operation management capability on firm’s innovation performance through the mediation of marketing pioneering orientation.

Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to examine the impact of operation management capability on firm’s innovation performance through the mediation of marketing pioneering orientation.

Design/methodology/approach

This study uses a quantitative method with data collected from questionnaires filled out by 189 managers of Israeli companies that operate in international markets. Based on the resource-based view and dynamic capabilities theories, this study developed and analysed the research model using SmartPLS 4 software.

Findings

The main findings show that operation management capability affects marketing pioneering orientation and firm’s innovation performance. Additionally, the findings reveal that marketing pioneering orientation serves as a partial mediator in the relationship between operation management capability and firm’s innovation performance.

Research limitations/implications

This study focuses on operation management capability and marketing pioneering orientation as two organisational characteristics that increase firm’s innovation performance. However, other organisational characteristics also can affect firm’s innovation performance. Future research could examine the effect of these characteristics on firm’s innovation performance.

Practical implications

Managers should strengthen their organisational capabilities with regard to operations management and a marketing pioneering orientation to enhance the firm’s innovation performance. Such an approach should provide the company with a competitive advantage over its rivals.

Social implications

Today, more customers are aware of the environment and are looking for greener products, packaging, recycling and logistics. Therefore, marketing PO might identify innovative and sustainable ways to improve organisations’ environmental performance by exploring new sustainable processes, modifying procedures and pursuing green supply chains.

Originality/value

The uniqueness of this study is in this study’s research model, which combines two disciplines from the research literature (logistics and marketing) and examines their effect on firm’s innovation performance.
