Abstract: Purpose �this paper aims to investigate the effects of different dimensions of supply chain management practices (SCMP) on supply chain performance efficiency (SCPE) in the industrial sector in the Sudan. Design/methodology/approach � The study employed the quantitative method where convenience sampling and self-administrated survey questionnaires were sent to 110 manufacturing companies in Sudan. Findings � The empirical results indicate that three of the five dimensions of SCMP had a significant positive effect on supply chain performance efficiency. Moreover, a new dimension was developed in supply chain management practices. Research limitations/implications � This study focuses only on the manufacturing sector. Also the data were only collected from single respondents in an organization. However, being the first study to explore the dimensions of SCMP and how those dimensions relate to supply chain performance efficiency, the study shapes the pathway for future research. Practical implications � The results lighted to SCM practitioners and policy makers on the importance of SCMP to increase the performance of manufacturing industry in terms of supply chain performance efficiency. Originality/value � This study developed framework based on existing theoretical base and employs a new approach to empirically examine the relationship between two important factors, the SCMP and supply chain performance efficiency.
