Existing literature offers multiple interpretations of how managers might develop and deploy supply chain visibility (SCV). However, current visibility research lacks rigorous definitions of visibility types and their relationships to contextual factors. Our systematic literature review and analysis extends previous studies by identifying visibilit...

The following sections use the framing provided in Figure 6 to highlight the theories, agreements, and disa-greements present in the literature regarding dissimilar roles of contextual characteristics in effectuating SCV and in mediating or moderating its impacts.
Often using a transaction cost economics perspective, re-searchers frequently study contracts, asset specificity, and organizational routines as key supply chain structural TABLE 6 Focal articles addressing contextual characteristics and SCV types. Contextual characteristics
Enablers of SCV include data quality, information sharing, top management support, trust, and interorganizational collaboration Vendor-managed inventory (VMI) benefits retailers even when shared information is slightly inaccurate. Retailers should ensure VMI suppliers use shared information in a timely manner. Forecasts should be shared early when ...
Visibility improves agility, adaptability, and alignment. Management support moderates these effects in different directions A that their forecast accuracy is higher than that of the retailer.

Information sharing is more difficult across multiple tiers because of issues with trust, benefit sharing, information quality, dominance, and confidentiality Centralized supply chain control (aligned incentives) raises the value of information sharing, especially for perishable products Consumers value visibility into suppliers socially responsibl...
The structure of contractual commitments makes information sharing more or less valuable for a manufacturer and its supplier Even limited trust can facilitate information sharing in the absence of reputation-building mechanisms and complex contracts Asset specificity and long-term orientation lead to relational interaction routines and information ...
The foregoing synthesis indicates that, while the litera-ture on supply chain information sharing and visibility is large, many opportunities for clarification, extension, and improvement remain. The existing literature concentrates on a small subset of identified information sharing traits and types of SCV and focuses on a few contextual factors w...
Future research should seek to extend our understand-ing of types and traits of SCV in the context of various kinds of supply chain relationships. Too many existing studies address “visibility” or “information sharing” only broadly and vaguely. The literature clearly shows that fac-tors such as objectives, relational context, and operating environm...

SCV impacts aThe literature contains conflicting views.
What are the key tenets of a “SCV theory”? What arguments and expectations can researchers develop that apply uniquely to SCV? How does coopetition in SC relationships shape opportunities for SCV? How can managers financially justify SCV investments in technology, training, and relationship building? aIs SCV a “capability”? If so, what kind? aWhat ...
Figure 6 identifies the predominant areas of application for the most cited theories, which include familiar relational and social perspectives, resource-oriented theories, agency theory, and transaction cost economics. However, nearly half of the 79 focal studies do not name an explicit theory. These contributions tend to be more analytical in na...
