“…However, there are cooperative and competitive aspects to any collaboration between businesses doing similar work. However, the latter often encourages linked enterprises to engage in competitive racing to study the competence of the partner(s) for private gains, as opposed to the former, which allows the firms to use their complementary strengths for common benefits [16]. Upon completion of the training, the necessity to maintain the alliance diminishes, potentially resulting in its dissolution.…”

“…The key feature of adopting the alliance contract in the construction process is that the risk and reward is shared among the parties. This signifies that the parties share the profits as well as the risks involved in the project, which incentivizes the team to collaborate and work efficiently [16]. This research mainly emphasises the synergetic integration of the alliance contract, lean methodology and sustainable construction factors.…”

By pioneering a comprehensive analysis of lean integration within the construction sector, this research provides novel insights into optimizing project outcomes. The construction industry is generally known for its frequent deadline slip-ups, budget overruns, and issues with upholding proper quality. It is usual practice to integrate different management techniques which are successful in the production industry in order to avoid such issues. Several researchers adopted sustainable construction management, lean management and alliance contract practices individually on construction sites to improve the profit, productivity, quality and transparency of the project. In this study, the synergetic integration of sustainable construction management, lean management and alliance contract practices have been studied. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 345 practitioners, resulting in 309 responses after screening. These respondents, comprising various roles in the AEC sector, provided insights into their experience, project involvement, and business sectors. The study identified 23 factors associated with lean practices, sustainable construction, and alliance contracts, examining their relationships and benefits through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results demonstrate significant effects of lean practice, sustainable construction, and alliance contract factors on the benefits derived from their integration. Measures of reliability and validity affirm the robustness of these relationships. The discussion underscores the benefits of integration, including enhanced efficiency, reduced environmental impact, improved collaboration, shared risk and reward, superior project outcomes, and competitive advantage. Overall, this research elucidates the potential advantages of integrating these methodologies within construction projects.

“…Meanwhile, developing an innovative I4.0 structure entails significant financial and human resource investment, which requires redesigning and restructuring the companies' operational procedures (Tortorella et al, 2015). Consequently, organizations can drive SC procedures toward digitalization using expertise and effective digital strategies (Aravindh et al, 2023). Thus, this might negatively affect the performance of organizations that lack the required resources and capabilities for the implementation of these technologies.…”

“…As a result, the recent technological progress, particularly related to Industry 4.0 (I4.0), offers promising opportunities for enhancing SCs (Bianco et al, 2023). This includes the potential to optimize supply chain operations, enhance efficiency, and improve sustainable performance (Aravindh et al, 2023). Therefore, it is vital to investigate how smart technologies enhance the overall system efficiency, enabling SC not only to emerge effectively operational but also to strengthen its sustainable position (Hariyani & Mishra, 2023).…”

Currently, researchers have been particularly interested in Industry 4.0 (I4.0) as a combination of novel revolutionary digital technologies. This evolution is transforming how organizations operate to promote sustainable and circular practices. Consequently, this research empirically investigates the capabilities of I4.0 adoption to establish a sustainable and circular supply chain. The study investigates the impact of organizational factors on the deployment of I4.0 technologies to achieve sustainability objectives. Furthermore, this approach combines empirical and qualitative analyses within a methodological framework to investigate the relationship between organizational factors, I4.0 adoption, sustainable, and circular practices. In this context, survey responses have been collected from 323 supply chain professionals in the textile sector in Morocco. Consequently, employing structural equation modeling, our results reveal a strong link between I4.0 adoption and the promotion of circular and sustainable approaches. The study finds a positive association between I4.0 adoption, technological readiness, and environmental responsiveness while highlighting the challenges posed by organizational practices on I4.0 implementation in developing countries. This research contributes to the theoretical foundations of the potential influence of I4.0 technologies, and it provides practical contributions for stakeholders to effectively embrace I4.0 technologies and thereby drive more sustainable and efficient practices.
