| dc.description.abstract | The focus of this study was to examine the effect of purchasing volume flexibility and purchase mix flexibility on sourcing flexibility among manufacturing firms in Ghana. To address the major goal of this study, two specific objectives were formulated. To achieve this, 350 individuals from the manufacturing companies in Ghana were sampled. SPSS and Smart PL-SEM were used for the analyses. The results indicate that purchasing mix flexibility significantly influences sourcing flexibility among manufacturing firms in Ghana. Again, evidence from the results indicates that purchasing volume flexibility significantly enhances sourcing flexibility of manufacturing firms in Ghana. The study therefore recommend managers in the manufacturing to pay close attention to purchasing volume flexibility and purchase mix flexibility in the quest to optimize sourcing flexibility. | |
