Design/Methodology: The construction firms in Saudi Arabia were selected to provide a sample of the population and to collected the data needed for the study. The data was collected using a convenience sampling strategy.

Findings: The proposed model and research hypotheses were validated through the use of regression analysis. The 

findings showed that the digital supply chain (DSC) positively affected the key performance indicators of lean manufacturing (LM).
