“…DEMATEL is a comprehensive method for constructing and analyzing a structural model involving causal relationships between complex factors [60]. It can clearly distinguish the cause-effect relationship of indices when measuring a problem [61]. The DEMATEL technique has been widely adopted in various fields, such as intelligent medical terminals [62], national museums business strategy [21,22], and sustainable supply chain management [61].…”

The recent emergence and rapid growth of new financial services by financial technology (Fintech) companies have driven banking institutions towards operational innovation in order to gain sustainable competitive advantage. This study aims to conduct an in-depth investigation of the banking sector in response to the challenges brought by Fintech startups. Based on the service innovation theory, we propose a novel hybrid multiple criteria decision-making method (MCDM) to evaluate service innovation strategies for improving the sustainability of China’s banking industry during the Fintech revolution. A six-dimensional model comprising 20 sub-criteria is constructed and both the decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) technique and DEMATEL-based analytic network process (DANP) are used to explore interrelationships among the indices and their related weights. Finally, the modified VIšekriterijumsko KOmpromisno Rangiranje (VIKOR) method is employed to evaluate performance gaps in the four major types of commercial banks in China—state-owned, joint-stock, city commercial banks, and other credit cooperatives—in the field of service innovation. The improvement priorities, ranked from highest to lowest, are new business partners, new service concepts, organizational innovation, technological innovation, new customer interactions, and new revenue models. These results will provide strategies for the sustainable development of China’s banking industry and the implementation of changes in response to the impact of the Fintech revolution.

“…This in-depth literature review was based on previous works conducted by authors such as Sarkis [26,[63][64][65], Tseng [23,44], and Govindan [29,66], among others, who allowed us to identify the most used green attributes and the benefits that can be obtained when applying GM.…”

This paper reports a second-order structural equation model composed of four variables: the green attributes before and after an industrial production process, the operating benefits, the commercial benefits, and the economic benefits. The variables are related by means of five hypotheses and are validated statistically with information obtained from 559 responses to a questionnaire applied to the Mexican maquila industry. The model is evaluated using the technique of partial least squares and the results obtained indicate that the green attributes before and after the production process have a direct and positive effect on the obtained benefits, mostly on the operational ones. It is concluded that companies that are focused on increasing their greenness level must monitor and evaluate the existence of green attributes in their production process to guarantee benefits and make fast decisions if required due to deviations.

“…The SSC is concerned with the good/service management and the capital flow training, as well as the intercompany cooperation along the supply chain, focusing on the sustainable development together with all the stakeholders [20,[52][53][54]. In this sense, the SSC is the spontaneous integration of the triple bottom line principles-the environmental, social, and economic issues-with the main inter-organizational business systems to create a coordinated supply chain, effectively managing in short-and long-term stakeholder requirements and the competitiveness and resilience of the organization.…”

“…The innovation and technology can transform how work can be done more efficiently and effectively, reducing the time and improving the clinical outcomes. Evaluating the sustainable transition view, the results can be interesting at the different levels, like the government, the institutions, the health plans, the suppliers, and the patients [19,20]. In this context, this research aims to propose a model aimed at discussing the issues related to the sustainable transition difficulties to promote the SSC in the hospital context, showing the elements into which the hospitals are inserted and helping to reduce the gap in the literature on this topic, according to the proposal of Markard [6], Gong et al [14], and Schaltegger et al [21], which encourage research, propose models and/or survey factors that facilitate implementation of sustainable development in business chains.…”

This research aims to discuss the business model themes supported by the innovation regarding the sustainable transition difficulties to promote the hospital supply chains. A model for future applications and empirical analyzes in the health service area is proposed. In the current hospital scenario, the systems are characterized by the individualistic attention of the closed business models, hampering the promotion of the business models, the innovation, and the sustainable transitions as the sustainable supply chain (SSC) enablers. The survey evaluates the private hospital chain in Brazil. The model was evaluated by seven specialists indicated by the main private Brazilian hospitals that are accredited by Joint Commission International and Public Ministry. The discussion presented seeks to advance the observation and the understanding of the relationships among the business models, the innovation, the sustainable transitions, and the sustainable supply chains in the health socioeconomic context through the lens of the service provider, without exhausting these themes separately. The main results are the issues related to the difficulties of sustainable transition to promote the SSC in the hospital context, showing the elements into which the hospitals are inserted and helping to close the gap in the literature on the subject. Sustainable transitions, along with the SSC, present themselves as rich and challenging themes, but are beneficial for conducting dialogues between approaches.
