The purpose of this paper is to determine the antecedents of Dynamic Supply Chain Capabilities (DSCCs). We test entrepreneurial orientation and supply chain learning orientation as two antecedents of DSCCs. The paper uses structural equation modelling to test a hypothetical model. Data are gathered from a survey of 275 operations managers in Pakistan’s turbulent manufacturing industry. The findings suggest that the weaker direct effects of entrepreneurial orientation, in comparison to the indirect effects, indicate that a supply chain learning orientation mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and DSCCs.
