Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the sourcing practices of apparel manufacturing company using structured situation/action/process and learning/action/performance (SAP-LAP) model. The study opens up new development thinking for the organisation in terms of improving sourcing efficiency. This study is an attempt of researchers to implement SAP-LAP framework in one of the leading apparel manufacturing sector based in Tirupur. The study has identified critical drivers of efficient sourcing practices like top management commitment, culture, empowerment, supplier relationship management, training and development, supply chain coordination and developing sales and operations planning (SOP). These factors can be further tested empirically on Indian apparel sector.
