This research aims to analyze the supply chain management processes and investigate the relationships between supply flexibility, delivery flexibility, planning process, and supply process. The study was conducted on ISO 1000 registered firms with the Istanbul Chamber of Industry, and data from 203 firms were analyzed using the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling method. The findings reveal that supply flexibility directly influences delivery flexibility and the planning process, and delivery flexibility and planning process also positively affects the supply process. The study provides valuable insights for supply chain management and logistic strategies, emphasizing the significance of understanding flexibility and relationships within the supply chain to enhance operational performance and gain a competitive advantage. Future research could extend the analysis to Small and Medium-sized Enterprises and make cross-sectoral comparisons for a comprehensive understanding.

Bu araştırma, tedarik zinciri yönetimi süreçlerinden tedarik esnekliği, teslimat esnekliği, planlama süreci ve tedarik süreci arasındaki ilişkileri analiz ederek aralarındaki doğrudan ve dolaylı etkileri incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. İstanbul Sanayi Odası'na kayıtlı ISO 1000 firmaları üzerinde gerçekleştirilen çalışmada, 203 firmadan elde edilen veriler yapısal eşitlik modeli yöntemiyle analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, tedarik esnekliğinin teslimat esnekliği ve planlama sürecini etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Teslimat esnekliği de tedarik sürecini olumlu yönde etkileyebilmektedir. Çalışma, tedarik zinciri yönetimi ve lojistik stratejileri için önemli içgörüler sağlamaktadır. Tedarik zincirindeki esneklik ve ilişkilerin anlaşılması, işletmelerin operasyonel performanslarını artırma ve rekabet avantajı elde etme konusunda değerli bilgiler sunmaktadır. Gelecekteki çalışmalarda, Kobi tarzı işletmelerde benzer analizlerin yapılması ve sonuçların karşılaştırılmasıyla daha kapsamlı bir anlayış elde edilebilir.
