Sayem Abstract - This study examines how AI Systems, Big Data Analytics, Internet of Things (IoT) and E-Procurement enhances Sustainable Supply Chain Performance (SCP), with a particular focus on Supply Chain Resilience (SCR) as mediator. Primary data were obtained from 307 respondents of manufacturing industries through structured questionnaire. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) approach was utilized for data analysis. The findings indicate that AI Systems, Big Data Analytics, Internet of Things and Supply Chain Resilience positively influence Sustainable Supply Chain Performance. On the contrary, E-Procurement doesn’t portray any significant direct effect. In terms of indirect pathways, SCR has positive mediating relationships between AI Systems and SSCP, as well as between IoT and SSCP. The mediation effect of SCR in the links between Big Data Analytics and E-Procurement with SCP is however not significant. These results provide subtle guidance to the practitioners in the industrial contexts, highlighting the need to prioritize those technologies that will promote resilience, specifically to AI Systems and IoT and re-examine the strategic contribution of E-Procurement to Sustainable Supply Chain models.
