“…Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is seen as an external resource in this approach, used to improve supply chain operational efficiency. Due to the link between the supply chain and the resources needed for peak performance (Smith, Yost and Lopez, 2020), the use of ERP or Enterprise Resource Planning and EDI or Electronic Data Interchange is recommended so long as these technologies are shown to be useful. According to RDT or Resource Dependency Theory (Hillman, Withers, and Collins, 2009), supply chain performance is the degree to which an organization's supply network satisfies the requirements of its customers.…”

“…To mitigate the risk of user rejection and subsequent termination of a recently implemented Information System, the implementer must prioritize the processes of diffusion and infusion (Smith, Yost and Lopez, 2020). In the literature on organizational innovation, diffusion is employed as a metric to assess the internal spread of usage among individuals, projects, tasks, or organizational units.…”

“…The supply chain includes all entities engaged in the transfer of goods, services, funds, and information from, the point of origin to the customer identification process, or CIP (Smith, Yost, and Lopez, 2020). The process is made up of linked nodes that allow a commodity to be transported from the supplier to the receiver (Fichman, 2011).…”

The study's overarching goal is to provide a theoretical foundation for the integration of EDI and ERP systems into Ugandan procurement and disposal entities' supply chains to optimize their performance. A design science approach was used as a research strategy and for data collection; a cross-sectional survey using qualitative techniques, including in-depth interviews was employed. From the findings, a model was developed for data visualization, report production, analytics, and transformation. This study therefore provides an in-depth evaluation of the effectiveness of procurement and disposal organizations in Uganda with the help of EDI and ERP technologies to enhance supply chain management.

“…It can be noted that currently, electronic forms of communication between partners are of great importance (Ambrose et al 2008 ). An often expected form of communication from suppliers is the exchange of information via the Internet and EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) (Smith et al 2020 ). The use of EDI enables the exchange of commercial and financial documents (such as orders, order confirmations, shipping advice, invoices, corrective invoices, etc.)…”

Expectations of manufacturing companies regarding future priorities of improvement actions taken by their suppliers

Purpose The paper concerns supply chains. It aims to identify the essential improvement actions that manufacturing companies expect their suppliers to take in the future rather than selection requirements already used in the assessment process. Within those improvement actions, the goal is to determine whether the size and management methods used in assessing companies affect these future expectations. Design/methodology/approach: Hypotheses were developed regarding the expectations of manufacturing companies and the factors influencing these expectations. Data collected from 118 companies from the Polish automotive, metal and chemical sectors were used to verify them. For this purpose, the U-Mann Whitney test was applied. Findings Manufacturing companies expect their suppliers to improve: (1) products, (2) processes, (3) organization management, (4) communication and (5) relationship, with the most important thing for them is the improvement of products and processes. It was found that the expectations regarding the contributors are influenced by whether the manufacturing company is a large or small enterprise or it uses or not the Toyota Production System. Lean Management and the ISO 14,001 Environmental Management System do not translate into these expectations. Originality/value : The article gives a new look at shaping relations between suppliers and customers in supply chains. Unlike most of the research to date, it does not concern the requirements that suppliers should meet at a given moment but focuses on the improvement actions they should undertake in the future. This paper adds important detail to understanding cooperation in B2B relations.

“…In fact, some practices carried out in a traditional way are no longer sustainable, and digital tools such as blockchain are needed to improve environmental, economic and social sustainability [14]. The concept and use of distributed ledgers are increasingly associated with supply chains applications to solve many information sharing problems [15][16][17]. In particular, one of the very trendy and pioneering distributed ledger technologies for supply chains is blockchain technology.…”

The Unknown Potential of Blockchain for Sustainable Supply Chains

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The growing attention to emerging technologies has raised several doubts regarding the sustainability aspects. Among the new technologies, blockchain has laid the foundations for a revolution in the financial field but also in the energy, tourism, medical, industrial and supply chains sectors. Through a systematic literature review, 37 documents were analyzed to describe the sustainable aspects generated using blockchain in supply chains. Therefore, the results achieved provide two levels of analysis. The former highlights the impact of the adoption of blockchain in supply chains based on the three dimensions of sustainability: environmental, economic and social. The latter shows the positive and negative impacts of each form of sustainability. The purpose of the work is to summarize the current state of the art in order to propose a future development agenda based on the need to simulate and define a measurability for each dimension of sustainability. Finally, the study provides a broad overview of practical and managerial implications for entrepreneurs and researchers. On the one hand, the work shows how the use of blockchain improves the profits and reputation of companies. On the other hand, it highlights several research gaps to be investigated and considered by researchers.
