The growth and survival of organizations in a competitive global economy necessitates reaching markets through various competitive mechanisms. The integration of supply chain management and organizational innovation has been identified as providing such competitiveness. This paper introduces corporate culture and identifies unique relationships between these variables. Furthermore, constructs are introduced to empirically examine the relatedness between the variables. Using the data collected from 379 Kun-Shan City service industries in Taiwan, the study employs multiple regression analysis to examine the effects of relatedness between the identified variables and constructs. Recommendations of relatedness are provided, adding to the body of knowledge and practical application to industry. This is the first empirical study to investigate such relatedness in a service industry setting in Taiwan, and recommendations for further research are provided.
