Next, the results of the interviews led to the development of a questionnaire, which 188 employees of the telecommunications company answered. Data were analyzed using partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLSSEM). The results reveal that internal integration (II) and customer integration (CI) significantly impact SCI and BSP, inferring the adaptation of supply chain management in the Malaysian telecommunication industry is relatively modest. In addition, the indirect effect of MO on the relationship between SCI and BSP was significant. The findings provide guidelines for telecommunication company to improve their BSP. This study provides significant insights into the moderating role of MO in the association between SCI and BSP among Telecom employees in Malaysia in Malaysia. Hence, it also improved the generalization concerning SCI, MO and BSP through applying resource-based view (RBV) among Telecom employees in Malaysia. It will be more interesting for future research to investigate other SCI elements toward BSP involving more telecommunication companies, or even comparative studies with other telco in different countries. 2023 Thesis https://etd.uum.edu.my/10950/ https://etd.uum.edu.my/10950/1/s94593_01.pdf text eng 2026-09-03 staffonly https://etd.uum.edu.my/10950/2/s94593_02.pdf text eng staffonly https://etd.uum.edu.my/10950/3/Depositpermission-s94593.pdf text eng staffonly other doctoral Universiti Utara Malaysia
