The Impact of Digital Supply Chain on Strategic Agility: The Mediating Role of Organisational Culture: Applying to the Saudi Health Sector

Abstract

This study examines the impact of the digital supply chain on strategic agility in the Saudi healthcare sector, mediated by organisational culture. The research included a sample of 384 employees in the sector and used a questionnaire to assess the relationship between the digital supply chain and strategic agility. The results showed that each dimension of the independent variable (digital supply chain) had a significant effect on the independent variable, while each dimension of the mediating variable (organisational culture) had a significant effect on the mediating variable. These results suggest that there is a significant effect between the dimensions of organisational cultures and strategic agility, providing actionable insights for researchers and practitioners. The study also makes recommendations for future research. The healthcare sector faces constant challenges in dealing with advanced technology, globalisation and changing patient trends. In order to respond quickly and effectively to change, health organisations must emphasise the importance of managing and allocating resources by creating competitive and sustainable supply chains.
