“…Competitiveness, which drives various efforts on the part of construction companies and project teams, is another distinctive feature of the construction sector [104]. To survive and thrive in a highly competitive market amid the changing expectations of stakeholders, construction companies usually seek to diversify their products and operations [105] and to improve their management practices, including digitizing the supply chain management [106]. It must be noted, however, that efforts to remain competitive can give rise to quality trade-offs [107], leading to numerous claims and sometimes legal disputes [108].…”

The growing interest in digitalization signals a need for technology-oriented supply chain operations in the construction industry. Electronic procurement (e-procurement) aims to convert traditional procurement approaches into web-based/online platforms. Even though e-procurement is an effective tool that may improve supply chain management, the extent of e-procurement implementation has been slow to date. This study investigates the barriers that hinder e-procurement implementation in construction supply chains with the aim of prioritizing solutions to the identified barriers relative to time, cost, quality, and construction owner satisfaction. A comprehensive literature survey was performed, and a focus group discussion was organized for the purpose of the study, which resulted in the identification of 28 barriers. Then, a total of 131 construction practitioners were contacted to evaluate the barriers through a questionnaire survey. The responses were analyzed using the fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarities to Ideal Solution (fuzzy TOPSIS) for prioritization. Finally, 15 semi-structured interviews were conducted to gain a deeper insight into the transformation process from the conventional procurement route to the e-procurement solution. Findings highlight that issues related to unexpected order cancellations, large variations in material costs, and the uncertain nature of the industry that requires a large number of changes are ranked as the most significant barriers. Given the highly competitive environment and the high demand for advanced technologies in the construction industry, a new paradigm can enhance the efficiency of supply chain operations. Exploring and eliminating the potential difficulties of adopting e-procurement in the procurement process may be a good start. Overall, this research is expected to facilitate the transformation of the procurement process by addressing the critical barriers identified by practitioners.

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that the use of level and flow diagrams generates formal visual structures based on simulators producing equations representing each one of the existing relationships in the entire supply chain [29,30]. The literature review performed by Gomes Filho et al [31] establishes a relationship between the type of supply chain and the flow of existing resources and stock accumulation.…”

Craft beer production has grown extensively worldwide. The variety of products and grains that can be used in production make this artisanal product unique. In this study, we propose a system dynamics model that allows for the evaluation of different production scenarios in which figs are used as the main ingredient. This research is inspired by the real case of small fig producers in Valle del Mayo in Navojoa, Sonora, Mexico, who, in 2020, took on the challenge of creating a processing factory for fig-derived products. This paper presents the development and application of a system dynamics approach to model the entire supply chain of overripe figs, i.e., figs that cannot be marketed in prime quality but can still be used in the production of derivative products. The method used for its development encompasses the following stages: (1) defining the craft beer supply chain variables; (2) elaborating on causal diagrams; (3) producing model stock and flow diagrams; (4) model validation; (5) sensitivity analysis and scenario evaluations; and (6) building a graphical user interface (GUI). The proposed model allows managers to assess several production policies under various assumptions of capacity and beer demand, demonstrating its value as an effective tool for strategic decision making.

“…Madyatmadja et al [11] revealed that the measurement of maturity level could use the COBIT 5 standard, a business framework for the governance and management of information technology companies. Wolden et al [12] have researched to reduce cyber-attacks in the Supply Chain Management System (SCMS) using COBIT 5 standards and the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) method [13]. The method used in the previous study focused on using the COBIT 5 standard but was not applied thoroughly to each phase of the SDLC.…”

Sustainable supply chain management can be a new strategy in the industry, especially in the furniture sector. In its implementation, different sources of risk factors emerge because the nature of the supply chain is too complex, causing supply and demand uncertainty for production. The furniture industry needs to implement supply chain risk management to overcome problems and cause a loss of trust from customers. This study aims to identify and manage supply chain risks in the furniture industry using the Supply Chain Risk Management Process (SCRMP) and COBIT 5 methods. After identifying the risk, the risk impact measurement uses the COBIT 5 method with the Deliver, Service, and Support (DSS) domain implemented into the decision support system. To find out changes after system implementation, the author conducts a risk assessment according to the COBIT 5 standard and evaluates the possibility of a risk occurring. The result of this study is a mapping of the handling of negative scenarios of risk after implementing the system that includes governance standards and input data to produce output documentation. Documents are applied to the decision support system to reduce risks in the supply chain. The SCRMP and COBIT 5 methods can manage supply chain risk more effectively. It guides the risk assessment area and provides information technology governance to the system. The implication of future research is to define standard operating procedure documentation for applying decision support systems in all divisions of the furniture industry.
