“…Moreover, a recent report by the McKinsey consulting group indicates that chief purchasing officers expect a 40 percent 839 E-procurement in SMEs: facilitators and impact on performance increase in annual savings, 30 to 50 percent less time spent on transactional sourcing, and a 50 percent reduction in value leakage because of digital procurement programs (De la Boulaye et al, 2017). Despite these enticing benefits, e-procurement is still predominantly exploited by larger firms rather than by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) (Zeller and Drescher, 2017;Gunasekaran et al, 2009).…”

“…Similarly, Huber et al (2010) deduce that the best practices in ICT depend on the type of restaurant. More recently, and applied to the case of Germany, Zeller and Drescher (2017) investigate whether the top 100 restaurant companies differ from smaller restaurants in their professionalisation concerning their procurement management, concluding that the accurate use of ICT can allow small restaurants to adopt the best practices.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the progress of research of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the restaurant industry. More specifically, this paper reviews the main academic contributions from the area of hospitality and tourism over the past 18 years by addressing the adoption and implementation of ICT in restaurant activities. Design/methodology/approach This study analyses 68 full-length ICT research articles that were published in the period 2000-2018 in 29 journals (with Science Journal Citation Reports or Scimago Journal Rankings impact) and eight subject areas. Findings The review reveals a number of significant findings. It highlights the scarcity of contributions within academic research related to the area of hospitality and tourism focused on addressing the issue of ICT in restaurants. Moreover, and predictably, several dimensions clearly emerge from the consumer and supply perspectives as being the most prominent. On the one hand, the adoption of ICT has changed the behaviour of consumers in at least three dimensions: information search and evaluation of alternatives purchase decision and post-purchase behaviour. On the other hand, ICT has revolutionised the core business areas of restaurants by dramatically transforming the following areas: operational and strategic management, marketing and Web design, customer services, security, food and nutrition and human resources. Originality/value Given the fact that ICT in the restaurant industry remains a largely unexplored subject, this paper can offer a useful tool for researchers who pursue advances in this field, by providing an overview that outlines the main aspects that need further research.

“…Seven supplier selection criteria were determined after reviewing studies regarding hospitality industry reviewed: quality, cost, delivery, flexibility, proximity, references, and environmental sustainability. Studies by Zeller and Drescher (2017) and Önder and Kabadayı (2015) were used for cost, delivery, proximity, references and sustainability criteria, and items by Krause et al (2001) were used for quality and flexibility criteria. Collaborative relationships were assessed by adopting the items of Fantazy et al (2010) focusing on long-term orientation of hotels on managing their relationships with their suppliers.…”

In this study, we examine the impact of strategic purchasing practices on hotel performance. In order to test our hypotheses, we use survey data from 71 hotels in Turkey. First, we perform a cluster analysis and identify two types of purchasing strategies based on supplier selection criteria: traditional vs. strategic. Then, via partial least squares (PLS) method, we test the effect of long-term relationships, supplier development and environmental supplier development on hotel performance. Our results show that long-term relationships have a negative effect on both market and financial performance. Additionally, we find that supplier development has a positive effect on performance, but only for hotels with a traditional purchasing strategy. Interestingly, we find that environmental supplier development has a positive effect on financial performance in hotels with a traditional purchasing strategy, but a positive effect on market performance in hotels with a strategic purchasing strategy.
