By building on resource dependence theory (RDT), our study explores the links between digital transformation, PPCs, and HSCO success.

Additionally, the increasing prevalence of big data and AI technologies have made decision-making using manufacturing data increasingly important. However, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) have encountered significant obstacles in adopting these technologies due to resource limitations and constraints. For SMEs, selecting an appropriate production strategy is challenging due to the complexity of manufacturing systems. As a response, this paper proposes a hybrid Simulation-Optimization with Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (SOMCDM) framework for SMEs to identify effective and customized production layouts. In the proposed approach, we model various production scenarios using a cellular manufacturing system. Surrogate models for different production layouts are created to basis functions using Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS). Subsequently, the basis functions are used as fitness functions to identify optimal production parameters in a genetic algorithm. Then, optimized parameters are applied to production criteria and ranked using a multi-criteria decision-making technique. In a case study, the proposed framework is applied to select the best production platform among three scenarios for a company assembling complex products. The selected production platform improves overall manufacturing performance by 11.95% compared to the existing one. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed framework in identifying the best production platform for labor-intensive SMEs manufacturing high-mix, low-volume products using SOMCDM for a digital twin environment. The proposed framework is further detailed through a case study of a 3D printer assembly factory.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14287,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Production Economics","volume":"279 ","pages":"Article 109447"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142552805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing upon the coordination theory, we posit that blockchain as a recording and tracing technology can improve the coordination among supply chain members on collecting carbon emissions data, thereby facilitating firms' Scope 3 carbon disclosure. Furthermore, data processing technologies enable efficient utilization and management of the collected data, potentially coordinating with blockchain to enhance Scope 3 carbon disclosure. We test these relationships using regression analysis based on a sample of 422 observations for Chinese listed firms during 2021 and 2022. The results show that blockchain adoption is positively associated with a firm's Scope 3 carbon disclosure. In addition, adopting each of the three data processing technologies—AI, cloud computing, and BDA—further strengthens the positive relationship.

The results indicate that misbehavior exhibited by both supplier and customer firms contributes to an increase in corporate misconduct by the focal firm. Based on the social contagion theory, we argue that supplier misconduct leads to an increase in focus firm misconduct through a mechanism similar to “spillover effect.” Customer misconduct leads to an increase in focus firm misconduct through a mechanism similar to the “learning effect”. And this phenomenon is influenced by the cooperation intensity and the industry sensitivity. The conclusion to our research makes some theoretical contributions. First, our research focuses on silent organizational factors in supply chain contagion, providing evidence of such factors spreading unobserved in the supply chain. Secondly, we explains the different mechanisms of transmission between suppliers and customers in the dissemination of misconduct across the supply chain.

With perishables spending a significant amount of time post-harvest in warehouses, appropriate management of warehouse inventory is necessary to reduce wastage due to spoilage. Drone-based warehouse inventory management is gaining popularity as seen in the increasing number of firms in this space as well as the number of research publications.

This study investigates the economic evaluation of flexible production and logistics outsourcing for deteriorating products with the help of logistics outsourcing. The retailer outsources logistics facilities through a fourth-party logistics provider. Fourth-party logistics uses reefer shipping to transport deteriorating products for preventing deterioration during transportation. The refrigerant of the shipping container has a random leakage during shipping. In the meantime, the manufacturer uses preservation facility to reduce the random deterioration rate of products. A classical optimization finds the global minimum total cost for a unique solution of decision variables. Results prove that flexible production is very sensitive to machinery systems and fresh products are more cost-effective for transportation than frozen products.

Drawing upon the ability, motivation, and opportunity (AMO) framework, this study aims to examine the impact of pre-pandemic employee training, an ability-enhancing practice, on production repurposing during the pandemic. Based on a dataset of 4679 firm-year observations from 32 countries sourced from the World Bank, our regression results indicate that firms that engaged in pre-pandemic employee training are more likely to initiate production repurposing during the pandemic. Furthermore, we delve into the moderating roles of government wage subsides, a motivation factor, and labor shortages, an opportunity constraint. The results reveal that government wage subsidies amplify the positive effect of pre-pandemic training on production repurposing, whereas labor shortages dampen this impact. Our heterogeneity analysis further suggests that national socioeconomic features can influence these relationships. This study underscores the role of employee training in preparing firms to actively adapt during crises. It also highlights the necessity of providing adequate motivations and creating conducive opportunities to facilitate human capital. These insights are valuable for managers and policymakers aiming to enhance firm adaptability and ensure resilient operations during crises.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14287,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Production Economics","volume":"278 ","pages":"Article 109444"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142537996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Safety stock buffering demand volatility is an important decision in supply chain management, making it an ideal lens to observe algorithm aversion. In this paper, we empirically investigate algorithm aversion behaviour in the context of safety stock settings. We collect data from a case retail company across a range of stockkeeping units (SKUs), encompassing both pre-disruption and post-disruption time stages with varying levels of volatility. We introduce a simulation model to determine whether algorithm aversion exists for safety stock decisions and to assess how algorithm adoption and adaptation affects performance. Our findings indicate that algorithm aversion occurs during supply chain disruptions, with algorithmic decisions significantly outperforming human judgment. Based on interview results and theories of information systems, we propose a theory to explain and generalize the above findings. This theory attributes algorithm aversion behaviour to reduced sense of fitness among algorithm users and lack of slack resources for both users and developers. It also offers insights into how the adoption and adaptation of algorithms influence decision performance during disruptive events.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":14287,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Production Economics","volume":"278 ","pages":"Article 109442"},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142531684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, such a supply chain has received little attention in terms of minimizing the integrated total cost taking into account these related factors explicitly. So, there lies a research scope on this topic to fulfill the growing need of minimizing the cost of production-deliveries of products to meet customers’ demands fruitfully. Here we develop such a generalized mathematical model to minimize the integrated total cost of carrying out operations at manufacturers and retailers, and transporting batches (sub-lots) of lots from sources to destinations considering the mentioned realistic constraints. The integrated production-delivery flow is synchronized by delivering lots with batches of equal and/or unequal sizes. First without considering transportation costs, we obtain optimal batches to minimize the total cost of the model. Each of these optimal batches is proportionally distributed at manufacturers as supplies and at retailers as demands. Then the minimum transportation cost solution from manufacturers to retailers is incorporated to the earlier solution to obtain the final result. We illustrate this solution policy with numerical example problems.
