Indonesian LPG supply chain relationships: A conceptual framework

Recently, supply chain management has played an important role in enabling businesses to succeed in their goals, gain competitive advantage, and improve their performance. As a result, there has been extensive research into strategic supply chain management with the aim of improving business performance along each stage of the supply chain. This is because in the current business world, supply chain relationships are crucial in influencing many companies to continuously adopt proper supply chain management practices. However, there has been no attempt to study the impact of the supply chain relationships involving trust, commitment, strategic supplier partnerships and customer relationships management of the LPG supply chain in Indonesia. This study is a critical analysis of literature to develop the conceptual framework that is proposed as the basis for analysing the relationship among domains of the supply chain and LPG supply chain performance.
