Introduction/Main Objectives: The transition toward a circular economy requires supply chains to achieve higher levels of resilience, adaptability, and sustainability. This study investigates the determinants of enhanced supply chain circularity performance by integrating perspectives of digital technology adoption advantages, networking advantages, and green infrastructure resources. Building on the resource-based view and dynamic capabilities theory, the research emphasizes the mediating role of organizational agility and green supply chain resilience in driving circular outcomes. A quantitative research design was deployed using survey data collected from supply chain and sustainability managers across manufacturing and logistics industries. Background Problems: Modern supply chains continue to suffer from limited visibility across tiers, high barriers to adopting sustainable and digital practices, organizational inertia, fragmented resilience–sustainability strategies, and data and collaboration gaps—collectively undermining their adaptability and circular performance.
Novelty: Current research novelty is the Integration of Triple Bottom-Line Outcomes (Enhanced Supply Chain Circularity Performance, spans environmental, operational, and economic dimensions) such as reverse logistics, resource efficiency, partnerships, performance. This holistic framing is distinct which fills a specific gap between DCT and RBV.
Research Methods: Multi-stage Cluster with Stratified Random Sampling used and SEM-AMOS) was applied to test the hypothesized relationships among constructs.

Findings/Results: The findings demonstrate that digital technology adoption, networking, and green infrastructures significantly contribute to building green supply chain resilience, which in turn positively influences circularity performance. Furthermore, organizational agility is identified as a critical mediating capability that enables firms to rapidly reallocate resources, foster innovation, and respond effectively to sustainability challenges.
Conclusion: The study concludes that digitalization, networking, and green infrastructure enhance circular supply chain performance through agility and resilience, offering both theoretical contribution to RBV–DCT integration and practical guidance for sustainable logistics management.
Implementation Potential: This study provides both theoretical and managerial contributions. Theoretically, it enriches circular economy and supply chain management literature by linking agility and resilience with circular performance outcomes. Practically, the findings offer actionable insights for managers to prioritize digitalization, cross-network collaboration, and green infrastructure investments as enablers of circularity. By highlighting the interconnectedness of agility, resilience, and sustainability practices, this research offers a comprehensive model for achieving enhanced supply chain circularity in the era of environmental and market uncertainty.
