The purpose of the study is to determine how supply chain flexibility (SCF), supply chain governance (SCG), and green supply chain practices (GSCPs) affect supply chain performance (SCP). In addition to exploring whether TQM moderates the effect of SCF, SCG, GSCPs on SCP of Saudi medium-sized industrial firms. To this end, data was gathered from 312 employees in Saudi medium-sized industrial firms and analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) via Smart PLS 4 software. The study revealed that GSCPs and SCG have a positive, significant and direct effect on SCP, in addition to that SCF and TQM do not have a direct positive effect on SCP.

The motivation of this study is to provide empirical evidence of service companies’ performance regarding nine dimensions in a total quality management model during the COVID-19 pandemic. The nine dimensions highlight strategic company activities, and it allows a comparative analysis of the overall effect of having a QMS such as ISO 9001:2015 on Peruvian service companies. A total of 630 Peruvian service companies were surveyed for this study. The questionnaire included 35 Likert-scale items that were further classified into nine (9) dimensions. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to estimate any significant differences between the ISO 9001 certified and non-certified companies. Our findings showed that the performance of ISO 9001:2015 certified companies was significantly higher than that of non-certified companies in all dimensions. Moreover, our findings showed that managers in ISO 9001:2015 certified companies effectively implemented the nine dimensions of the model. The originality of this study lies in proving the positive effect of having a QMS in service companies in a context of slow economic growth and decline of consumer demand such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings might encourage service companies, especially those in developing countries, to allocate the necessary resources to obtain a QMS such as the ISO 9001:2015.
