Firms in developing countries are adopting best practices to improve their organizational performance. They have been focusing on achieving productivity gains in their operations by implementing best practices. However, these efforts could not lead to expected benefits. The main reasons for failure in adopting the best practice which it face new environmental scenarios different for which it was created. This paper explores the best practices implementation and challenges encountered during the process of adoption. The research methodology includes a literature review, questionnaire survey and semi-structured interview. The Ethiopian manufacturing firms were sampled for empirical study. The research survey was based on SCOR model best practices. The findings show that most of the respondent firms have shown interests and put efforts to implement some of them. But, the results were below the expectations. The implementation of the best practice has faced different challenges and unavailability of the required enablers. Therefore, there is a need for developing countries to analyze their scenarios and then adapt the best practices that consider their real situations.
