“…Enterprises are currently faced with tremendous market changes forcing them to critically scrutinize the way in which they create value and serve customers (Davis, 2013; Ten Hompel and Kerner, 2015; Harmon, 2016). New technologies such as “social media” or “internet of things” lead to an increasing market transparency by reducing information asymmetries between sellers and buyers (cf.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify process-related value propositions in terms of process execution when using enterprise social media (ESM) for external communication purposes. Additionally, capabilities of ESM technologies to realize the value propositions are identified. Design/methodology/approach A literature review of case studies, describing ESM usage for external communication purposes, is performed. Further, face-to-face interviews with employees from companies are conducted to complement the findings retrieved from the literature. Findings It is shown that manifold process-related value propositions for different business processes can be realized by ESM application for external communication purposes. However, certain value propositions and the corresponding capabilities of ESM technologies are particularly emphasized. Research limitations/implications This research is different from existing studies about ESM usage because an explicit perspective on business processes is taken. Therefore, the findings contribute to the existing body of knowledge of beneficial ESM usage. Analyzing the literature and interview transcripts underlies a certain amount of subjectivity, a circumstance addressed by engaging two researchers in the coding procedure. Practical implications Practitioners discussing potentials of ESM application are provided with concrete hints as to which business processes will most likely profit from the use of social technologies for the external communication with customers. Originality/value This paper contributes to a better understanding of the beneficial impact of social technologies on business processes and thus prepares the ground for a better alignment of ESM and processes. An extensive overview of value propositions for a company’s business processes has so far not been compiled in this form.

“…Logistics 4.0 definitions are vague as the concept is not homogenous, being at its initial stage of development [3]. Publications on the subject aim to present Logistics 4.0 as a trend important in logistics [4], solutions within it [5], the role of lifelong learning [6], key competences development [7], and knowledge management. They also refer to the challenges of contemporary markets that logistics have to face, such as information exchange, automation [8], and real-time big data analysis and link Logistics 4.0 to contemporary management paradigms such as sustainability [9].…”

Knowledge Absorption Capacity as a Factor for Increasing Logistics 4.0 Maturity

et al. 2019

This research strives to show the importance of knowledge absorptive capacity as one of the most important determinants of successful implementation of contemporary solutions and, consequently, development of a company. In the approach presented, the development leads to excellence and is expressed with subsequent maturity levels. The research is focused on identification of the level of absorption of knowledge of contemporary solutions in logistics, grouped in a concept of Logistics 4.0, and how that upgrades the organizational maturity of a company. The research was conducted with CAWI (Computer-Assisted Web Interview), including three questions and a basic query on experts’ qualifications. The general conclusion from the research was that to reach a higher level of maturity, a higher level of knowledge absorption is required. However, searching for differences in absorption of solutions within physical flows, information flows and managerial methods seem to be an interesting issue and promising field for further research.

“…When central processes, structures and resources are fragmented and geared towards decentralisation, agility and speed (Gehrke 2017, Hompel andHenke 2014), production planning needs to become more flexible, too. For example, the current DCM process is no longer able to cope with the large number of planning impulses and the complexity of demand and capacity information.…”

The increasing technical complexity of cars and the high number of offered options lead to new challenges in the automotive industry and especially the mid-term demand and capacity management (DCM). This requires a procedural adaptation based upon an efficient information model. In this contribution, the state of the art is analysed for both the DCM process and the underlying information models. Promising concepts for managing the steadily increasing requirements in DCM are deducted, and a modular process kit for the procedural adaptation combined into the concept SmartDCM is introduced. Additionally, a new approach of an efficient information model for managing the increasingly complex information is presented.
