The analysis was performed using AMOS 22.0. The results indicated that absorptive capacity has a positive and significant effect on supply chain agility, while supply chain agility has a positive and significant effect on competitive advantage, absorptive capacity has a positive and significant effect on competitive advantage, and supply chain agility has a positive and significant effect in mediating the relationship between absorptive capacity and competitive advantage.
