Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to advance the theory of supply chain complexity (SCC) in
the specific context of supplier complexity because supplier complexity has increased
tremendously with increasing globalization. The specific objectives of this research are:
(a) to develop a theoretical model of supplier complexity that includes both objective
and perceived components; and (b) to develop and test a scale that is theoretically robust
and managerially useful for measuring supplier complexity. Subject of investigation is a
leading farm equipment manufacturer with headquarters in Austria.
