Background: The purpose of this study is to create a theoretical framework for analyzing the causal relationship between supply chain management practices and firm performance, in the FMCG sector of Pakistan. A quantitative research approach was adopted, in which a multi-item scale Web-based survey using a structured online questionnaire was utilized to collect the primary data. A total of 232 questionnaires were collected from a sample of Karachi-based FMCG companies in Pakistan. Confirmatory Factor analysis and internal consistency were used to test the reliability and fitness of the measurement model, and structural equation modeling-SEM was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. Empirical findings reveal that there is a significant positive relationship between SCM practices and firm performance. However, the results of the individual-level analysis of SCM practices appear to vary from practice to practice. Of various SCM practices, supplier strategic partnership SSC with the highest beta value (i.e., ß = 0.488; t-value = 32.381; p _ 0.000) was found to have the greatest impact on firm performance, followed by information sharing customer relationship, and finally the outsourcing. This study will guide supervisors with a more in-depth understanding of SCM practices and their potential contribution to firm performance. The findings also encourage managers to place supplier strategic partnerships and information systems on high priority, on both inter-firm and intra-firm relationships, as prerequisites for achieving superior firm performance. The propositions and results of the study provide managers with guidelines about effective management of upstream supply chain networks and awareness of the potential synergies that arise from suppliers and the information system. This article further enriches the literature in an evolving area of supply chain management practices. Two key factors facing supply chain managers and scholars are addressed, and establish their ability to drive firm performance.

The major purpose of this research paper is to examine supply chain management practices as a strategic tool for third-party logistics firms’ performance: by presenting practical and theoretical advantages by reviewing the corresponding literature, and also by proposing more forward-looking studies. A literature review was developed to help today's supply chain managers and analysts to thoroughly scrutinize what was already recognized as well as what requires further research. The research broadens, from a centered company perspective, the understanding of supply chain management practices as a tactical resource for success of third party logistics firms, as well as limitations for future studies. This research paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the literature to develop a proposed general framework for a strategic tool research initiative to perform TPLs' supply chain management practices. The research paper provides perspectives into deficiencies in current practices of supply chain management, along with the progress of third party logistics sector literature. The research paper proposes specific research into the logistics process, as it relates to planned and current performance. The research paper makes a series of important literary contributions. First, it provides the first comprehensive analysis of the fundamental concepts used throughout the current supply chain management activities research in relation to the performance of third party logistics companies. Indeed, when carrying out a similar exercise, the approach used to conduct the systematic literature review may be used as a guide for future investigators. Current research is aimed at providing a researcher who meets the needs of modern business leaders.
