PurposeBlockchain technology enhances information management in healthcare supply chains by securing healthcare information and providing medical resource traceability. However, there is no decision framework to support blockchain implementation for managing information, especially in emerging economies’ healthcare supply chains. This paper develops a hierarchical decision model for implementing blockchain technology for information management in emerging economies’ healthcare supply chains.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses 20 health supply chain experts in Ghana to rank 17 decision criteria for implementing blockchain for healthcare information management using the best-worst method (BWM) multi-criteria decision technique.FindingsThe results show that “security” and “privacy,” “infrastructural facility” and “presence of training facilities” are the top three critical factors impacting blockchain adoption in the health supply chain for healthcare information management. Other sub-factors are prioritized.Practical implicationsTo implement blockchain effectively to enhance information management in the healthcare supply chain, health institutions, blockchain technology providers and state authorities should concentrate on the highly critical factors extracted from the study.Originality/valueThis is the first study that develops a hierarchical decision model for implementing blockchain technology in emerging economies' health supply chains.

This article presents an empirical study on the effectiveness of Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in the water supply industry in Georgia. The study identifies vital and causal problems within the industry, including outdated infrastructure, lack of technical and financial resources in rural areas, absence of consolidated state policy, and insufficient state subsidies. Through a comprehensive assessment that considers economic, social, and environmental sustainability, as well as stakeholder perspectives, the study evaluates the relative importance of different PPP models. Findings indicate that the Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) model is highly prioritized due to its reliance on private capital and the preservation of state control. The results contribute to evidence-based decision-making, enabling policymakers to design effective PPP frameworks that address the specific needs and characteristics of the water supply industry in Georgia.

“…However, the establishment and implementation of mining heritage reuse projects require a large amount of human and material resources and financial support, and mining enterprises or local governments are often unable to support the construction of the project, requiring the government and other social capital members to join in to bear the costs of the project. After years of development, the PPP mode has gradually begun to emerge in various fields and show its superiority [5][6][7].…”

With the development and utilization of resources, mineral-resource cities face the dilemma of resource depletion, the environmental restoration of mines, and industrial transformation. Reusing their mining heritage is a good way for these cities to change their mono-industrial structure and vigorously develop successor industries. Due to the complexity of reusing mining heritage, introducing the “Public–Private-Partnership” (PPP) mode can be a good solution to the problems of the government’s mining heritage reuse, such as large capital investment and a long construction-cycle time. To accurately classify the risk of reuse of mining heritage in the PPP mode, 26 indicators are selected to construct the evaluation index system of mining heritage reuse in the PPP mode based on five aspects: social capital-side, contractor-side, government-side, civilian-side, and the natural environment. The path coefficients of the structural equation model are used to calculate the weights of the indicators. The improved matter–element extension model is constructed to evaluate the reuse of mining heritage in the PPP mode. The Jiaozuo-Centennial Mining Heritage Park project is the object of research for applying the model. The results show that the risk evaluation index system combines the risk factors from the stakeholders’ perspective. The risk-evaluation model of the mining heritage reuse PPP project is constructed based on the combination of the improved matter–element extension model, the calculation of the asymmetric closeness, and the structural equation modeling method, which solves the drawbacks of the traditional model, such as the difficulty of determining the weights of the indicators, the incomplete scope of the material element domains, and the poor calculation of the comprehensive correlation degree. The case analysis shows that the risk level of the Jiaozuo-Centennial Mining Heritage Park project is Level II. This aligns with the actual situation and verifies the feasibility of the risk-evaluation model applied to the actual project. The research in this paper fills the gap in the risk model of mining heritage reuse in the PPP mode, enriches the theoretical system of risk evaluation of mining heritage reuse projects, and provides reference significance for similar mining heritage development projects in the future.
