This research uses data from the third round of the High Performance Manufacturing (HPM) project data set. It investigates the influence of supply chain integration (SCI) on delivery performance and the moderating effect of international sourcing on this relationship. The results confirm the positive relationship between SCI and delivery performance and also highlight that the impact of SCI is positively moderated by the extent to which international suppliers are used. Thus, to maximize delivery performance firms should properly tune the level of adoption of SCI practices according to the internationalization of their supplier network.

Abstract
This research uses data from the third round of the High Performance Manufacturing (HPM) project data set. It investigates the influence of supply chain integration (SCI) on delivery performance and the moderating effect of international sourcing on this relationship. The results confirm the positive relationship between SCI and delivery performance and also highlight that the impact of SCI is positively moderated by the extent to which international suppliers are used. Thus, to maximize delivery performance firms should properly tune the level of adoption of SCI practices according to the internationalization of their supplier network.
