“…In order to increase SC performance with fewer advantages, some companies have paid considerable investments in improving and executing IT and systems. Still, other organizations have spent the same amount with great prosperity (Dobernig & Schanes, 2019; Samadi & Kassou, 2016). SCA is a critical competitiveness determinant in the current turbulent and dynamic business setting (Sangari et al., 2015; Zeraati et al., 2019).…”

For a company to survive in the long run, it is necessary to attract enough customers to generate profitability. Since the high uncertainty in organizations requires a more rapid response to customers’ needs, agility is a critical success factor for today’s manufacturing enterprise. To be competitive, enterprises must integrate their supply chains more effectively and forge close memberships with customers and suppliers more quickly. Therefore, the current study attempts to understand how supply chain agility has evolved. We have used a systematic literature review approach to examine the current state of the art and identify potential research gaps. It has indicated how companies can form and preserve competitive advantages in turbulent environments between manufacturers and consumers. From the outcomes, it can be observed that the developed supply chain agility has positive impacts on the sales of companies, velocity to market, profitability, market share and consumers’ satisfaction. Also, the investigations showed that the supply chain agility management needs persistent planning. Allotment of the resources to the agility aspects’ improvement might help companies increase the influence of such investments. Our investigation highlights the tactics for better readiness to attain supply chain agility that is the central part of electronic firms' competency in an emerging market.

About one-third of the world's food production is lost or wasted annually at different stages of food supply chains (FSCs). Food loss usually occurs in the early stages of FSCs, while waste is more prevalent in their final stages. Thus, the main objectives of the present study were to investigate the causes of loss and waste, as well as strategies that can minimize them. Decreasing food waste in collective catering organizations, including university restaurants, is situated in the context of these concerns. In order to contribute to this discussion, the authors investigated the causes of wastage in university restaurants and possible interventions recommended in the literature to reduce it. A search considering the “food waste” and “university restaurant” constructs in five different databases found 352 publications related to the theme, of which 21 supported to answer the two questions that guided this search: Q1: “What are the causes that contribute to food waste in university restaurants?” and Q2: “What are the interventions that can be or are used in university restaurants to reduce food waste?” The literature search identified 13 causes (portion size; quality; price; emotion; palatability; preparation/cooking; menu; time; satiety; storage; service; overbuying; security) and 14 possible interventions (campaigns; trayless systems; waste management; portion size; quality; changing menus; planning; preordering; charity/donations; nutritional information; coercion; changing the dishes; preparation/cooking; storage). From this perspective, the present article provides a holistic view of food waste in university restaurants, in order to guide mitigation interventions and future research on this theme.

“…IT integration (DR11 ITI) is another DR with a relative significance of 0.0398 which is to be considered to enhance SC performance. The necessity of access to real-time information in an electronics industry is evident and IT integration will enhance the agility and flexibility of the organization and SC partners (Samadi and Kassou, 2016;Pachayappan, 2018). Knowledge Management (DR7 KLM) with a score of 0.0354 includes acquisition of knowledge, integration, protection, innovation and dissemination (Perez-Salazar et al, 2013).…”

“…It has also improved agility and flexibility among firms (Sabbaghi and Vaidyanathan, 2008). The information should be shared both in upstream and downstream for improving the integration and planning related activities in SC processes (Samadi et al, 2016;Pachayappan, 2018).…”

PurposeSupply chain efficiency can be enhanced by integrating the activities in supply chain through digitalization. Advancements in digital technologies has facilitated in designing robust and dynamic supply chain by bringing in efficiency, transparency and reduction in lead times. This research tries to identify and prioritize the customer requirements and design requirements for effective integration of supply chain through digitalization.Design/methodology/approachThe key nine customer requirements and 16 design requirements applicable for an electronics company were shortlisted in consultation with the experts from the company and academia. An integrated analytic network process (ANP) and quality function deployment (QFD) methodology has been applied for prioritizing the customer and design requirements. The relative importance and interdependence of these requirements were identified and a House of Quality (HOQ) is constructed.FindingsThe HOQ constructed has prioritized and identified interrelationships among customer requirements and design requirements for effective supply chain digitalization. These findings could be effectively used by managers for planning the objectives on long-term, medium-term and short-term basis.Originality/valueThis study tries to bridge the gap of identifying and prioritizing the design and customer requirements for effective supply chain integration through digitalization. The results could aid practicing managers and academicians in decision-making on supply chain digitalization process.
