integration generate an impact on the supply chain management and network
integration in a firm. The researcher studied the example of a cable network in
which viability was increased through the use of an integration strategy. Furthermore,
the survival of the integrated system is not quite easy as it is normally
perceived by the contributors as a simple integration which does not relate to
the non-affiliated cabal network. The research study concluded that efficiency
can be increased and enhanced through the presence of a vertical integration
strategy. The research paper mainly consists of real study conduct on the cable
network (Kim, Park, & Sang woo, 2017). The research study
examined the behavior of the cable network and concluded that vertical and
horizontal integration works in favor of a company and support discriminating
advantage.
