This paper examines the effect of macroeconomics and supply chain finance (SCF) on the profitability of the manufacturing companies, specifically in Indonesia from 2017 to 2021. Furthermore, the study demonstrates the critical role of macroeconomics and SCF in profitability through the use of general moment method (GMM). The results indicate that cash conversion cycle (CCC) is detrimental to profitability (P), while macroeconomics has a positive impact on it. In addition, strong profitability is negatively and positively correlated with the leverage (LEV) and sustainable supply chain management (MRPB) control variables, respectively.

The purpose of this paper is to conduct a bibliometric analysis to analyze trends and patterns of outsourcing and supply chain research results using statistical and co-word analysis. The search results in the Scopus database yielded 787 relevant documents with the keywords outsourcing and supply chain from 1997 to early 2022. The results of the bibliometric analysis resulted in the number of publications, citations, subject areas, country, keywords, and topic clusters. The trend of outsourcing and supply chain research tends to increase every year although it had a significant decline in 2011. The documents with the most citations are related to supplier selection using analytical network processes, optimization of outsourcing partners, and ICT in the supply chain. The four fields that dominate the research area are business management, engineering, decision science, and computer science. The United States of America is the most productive country with the most citations. There are four cluster topics formed: the importance of supply chain management in outsourcing in industry and ICT in company activities, the impact of supply chain on business performance and outsourcing decisions, logistics outsourcing decisions to third parties and their effectiveness, lastly the benefit costs of outsourcing and the implications for product management. This paper provides an additional updated overview of the outsourcing and supply chain research map.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) on e-business adoption and the impact of e-business adoption on the value chain of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The study uses a quantitative approach where the respondents are 389 SMEs that use e-business in Indonesia. Partial Least Square - Structural Equation Modeling analysis is used in this study to analyze data and test hypotheses. The study results describe that technology, organization, and environment significantly influence the e-business adoption of SMEs. Furthermore, e-business adoption has a substantial impact on the value chain of SMEs. The study provides an overview of SMEs in Indonesia to determine the factors used as references in e-business adoption and how good e-business adoption will add value to businesses, especially in the value chain.
