ABSTRACT: This study investigates the status of e-SCM
and performance among Jordanian manufacturing sector. The objective of this
study is to analyze the impact of trust and communication on the e-SCM usage.
Moreover, the study investigates the effect of the trust and communication on
the firm’s performance while the e-SCM usage is used as a mediating factor on
firm’s performance. The proposed research model was validated by distributing 250
survey questionnaires to the manufacturing sector in Jordan. Structural
equation modelling (SEM) technique was used to analyze the results. One of the
main limitations of this study was that the results could not be universal
since the study was limited to Jordan. We discussed the implications of our
results for research and practice.
