“…This study proposes that IT-enabled supply chain capabilities are firm-specific and hard-to-copy across organizations. Prajogo & Olhager (2012) investigated the integrations of both information and material flows between supply chain partners and their effect on operational performance. They found that logistics integration has a significant effect on operations performance.…”

Abstract. The trend for e-commerce, estimated population size to 11 billion by 2050, and an increase in urbanization level to 70 % is requiring to re-think the current supply chain. These trends changed the distribution process: delivery distances are decreasing, the product variety is increasing, and more products are being sold in smaller quantities. Therefore, the concept of supply chain resilience has gained more recognition in recent years. The scientific literature analysis conducted by the authors indicate several capabilities that influence supply chain resilience. Collaboration, flexibility, redundancy and integration are the most influential capabilities to supply chain resilience. However, the authors identify that the combination of these capabilities to supply chain resilience is under researched. The authors indicate that by combining these capabilities with the upcoming technologies of industry 4.0, supply chain resilience can be achieved. In the future, the authors are planning to conduct further research to identify the influence of these capabilities to supply chain resilience, to quantify supply chain resilience, and to provide further practices of industry 4.0 concept usage for supply chain resilience.

Recycling procurement strategies with variable yield suppliers

Companies are no longer judged on financial performance alone, but rather on their "Triple-Bottom Line", which accounts for social and environmental measures as well. This leads companies to investigate the sustainability of their operations and their products. Between the increasing cost of virgin raw materials and customers demanding post-consumer product content, manufacturers have begun looking at recycled material options. This paper addresses a procurement issue facing a polystyrene packaging manufacturer considering its optimal purchasing strategies between two suppliers -one providing virgin material, the other offering recycled material. A single-period scenario is modeled where each supplier sells product with a known yield distribution at market pricing. The manufacturer must choose whether to sole-source or dual-source, as well as determine how much material to purchase from each supplier to meet deterministic demand. Our results indicate that there is a range of prices from the recycled material supplier where dual-sourcing will lead to higher manufacturer profits compared to solesourcing. We show, based on the procurement strategy, the optimal quantities to purchase to maximize manufacturer's expected profit.We then investigate the area of supplier development and how the manufacturer can improve their expected profit by investing in their supplier's quality improvement effort. The questions addressed are how much the manufacturer would be willing to invest and how they ensure the proper return on their investment. This paper determines the expected increase in profit for the manufacturer from yield improvement projects at a supplier, which therefore becomes the upper threshold for investment. We also find that a company can err in their project acceptance criteria if they have an approval process that views project acceptance myopically rather than holistically.Lastly, we develop a systematic and comprehensive approach to the supplier selection process. We utilize the fundamental concepts behind W. Edwards Deming's Plan-Do-Study-Act improvement cycle and apply them to the supplier selection process.We also present analytic and numerical study results that can be used in conjunction with contractual mechanisms to not only overcome issues such as free riding, but to also incentivize suppliers to engage in supplier development projects they may not have otherwise undertaken. In order to understand why companies have become more attentive to the issue of recycling, one must look back over the past few decades. Firms have faced increased scrutiny on the environmental impact surrounding the disposal of consumer goods, the disposition of production by-products, and how they act as corporate citizens. No longer are companies judged solely on their financial measurements. They are now being evaluated on the "Triple Bottom Line". This metric measures a firm's social and environmental performance, as well as its economic performance. Manufacturers must 2 now address how their products impact the environment...

“…To do that practices of Total Quality Management and efficient Just in Time management must be employed. The main goal in logistics is to set up long-term contracted relationships and create formal and informal netwroks where information and knowledge flows have significant effects on productivity of participating companies [Prajogo and Olhager 2012].…”

The paper analyses logistics industry in Czech Republic and analyzes clusters and groups of one hundred companies that were active in the market in 2014. Analysis is based on the economic theory of endogenous growth and technological spillovers of multinational firms. They have the know-how and technology, which makes them more productive than local firms which tries to catch up the leaders and try to get as much knowledge as possible. This paper contributes to this theory. Key findings for this transitional economy is that quality certification is not beneficial for labor productivity and earnings, there are differences among multinational firms in terms of output efficiency and they are on average more productive than local firms, older firms are less productive than younger, but entrants are not more profitable than older firms.
