Manufacturing companies have adopted information technology to create integrated systems that facilitate coordination within the company and with external partners. This demonstrates the company's ability to generate supply chain resilience to address current global uncertainties. The study obtained data from 112 respondents from manufacturing companies in Indonesia using purposive sampling. The data were processed using PLS with an outer model test, which met the validity and reliability requirements. The results of the research hypothesis testing showed that information technology adoption plays a significant role in improving purchasing strategy, production flexibility, and supply chain responsiveness. Purchasing strategies that segment purchasing categories and involve suppliers in problem-solving can increase production flexibility but do not directly affect supply chain responsiveness. Production flexibility in a company's operations directly impacts supply chain responsiveness and resilience. Purchasing strategy and supply chain responsiveness contribute to supply chain resilience by developing capabilities. Companies can routinely identify risks and recover from disruptions. Practical contributions can provide management insights into building corporate resilience by aligning purchasing strategies, production flexibility, and supply chain responsiveness to optimize information technology for internal and external integration.
