“…According to Fig. 2, a well-defined conceptual framework is presented for SDCM [14] that takes the customer perspective and transforms the traditional purchasing focused flow of supply chain while taking goals from the TBL of the business [15]. It is stated that the sustainable value performance is a concept that needs to be defined from the customer sustainability dimensions as an output rather than the suppliers' perspective that results in creation of sustainable value proposition [14].…”

-Given the emerging industrial management strategies considering three pillars of sustainability in particular, there is a vital need to determine the differences of sustainability practices within both supply and demand distribution systems through global manufacturing environments providing with the successful global trade and logistics. This research paper aims to explore the interactions and advantages of sustainability applications within both supply and demand chain management. The research framework adopted consists of survey questionnaire method which is conducted within a global tyre manufacturing company. The research results and analysis justify the need for the application of ethical codes, supply chain transformation and the effective association of industry executives, professional bodies and the government. The research study also identifies that the vital incentive factors for the organisation towards sustainable supply demand chain (SSDC) are mostly the financial benefits of doing so and therefore, a positive mind-set shift towards greening practices is required.Keywords -Global manufacturing, sustainability, sustainable demand chain management (SDCM), sustainable supply chain management (SSCM), sustainable supply demand chain (SSDC).

“…Based on the research results, researchers were able to introduce and propose a conceptual framework with three integrative elements and propositions for the role of marketing in DCM to enable the linkage and relationships between marketing and SCM, as highlighted in table 1 [7]. In this case, the demand chain transformation at Heineken Company is examined in some major aspects including ECR with the form of category management, vendor management inventory (VMI) and early supplier involvement (ESI) as useful practices [9]. Moreover, many successful companies like Zara and Dell benefit from adoption of the DCM principles to their businesses [10] in order to increase their profitability and competitive advantage by close association of supply and customer elements such as product availability, delivery accuracy and responsiveness.…”

Abstract-In current global and competitive environments, innovation is considered as a key success factor towards growth and meeting customer demands and expectations within the product development processes. The research paper aims to explore the concept of sustainable new product development practices within demand-driven supply chain environments. It will investigate the early stages of the research study within this domain through the findings from literature focusing on demand chain and new product development and the use of sustainable practices within manufacturing. The researcher's focus is to further develop the understanding to propose a novel framework of NPD (New Product Development) to DCM (Demand Chain Management) to utilize the research findings. The study has identified the incorporation of NPD-DCM considering all the business ecosystem entities and the flow of information, finances and materials within the supply chain structure. The results of this study can be utilized by researchers and practitioners researching within similar context and environments.Keywords-sustainable development; new product development (NPD); supply chain; demand chain management; environmental practices.

a b s t r a c tThis paper discusses demand and supply chain management and examines how artificial intelligence techniques and RFID technology can enhance the responsiveness of the logistics workflow. This proposed system is expected to have a significant impact on the performance of logistics networks by virtue of its capabilities to adapt unexpected supply and demand changes in the volatile marketplace with the unique feature of responsiveness with the advanced technology, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Recent studies have found that RFID and artificial intelligence techniques drive the development of total solution in logistics industry. Apart from tracking the movement of the goods, RFID is able to play an important role to reflect the inventory level of various distribution areas. In today's globalized industrial environment, the physical logistics operations and the associated flow of information are the essential elements for companies to realize an efficient logistics workflow scenario. Basically, a flexible logistics workflow, which is characterized by its fast responsiveness in dealing with customer requirements through the integration of various value chain activities, is fundamental to leverage business performance of enterprises. The significance of this research is the demonstration of the synergy of using a combination of advanced technologies to form an integrated system that helps achieve lean and agile logistics workflow.
