Each of these provides an independent, specific and relatively small piece of functionality, which is typically accessible through the Internet from internal or external service providers. There are no standards or models that describe the sourcing process of these software based services (SBS). The authors identify the sourcing requirements for SBS and associate the key characteristics of SBS (with the sourcing requirements introduced). Furthermore, this paper investigates the sourcing of SBS with the related works in the field of classical procurement, business process outsourcing, and information systems sourcing. Based on the analysis, the authors conclude that the direct adoption of these approaches for SBS is not feasible and new approaches are required for sourcing SBS.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

As a result, this paper investigates the use of RFID in hospitals in an emerging application, that of using RFID as part of the prescription process, including pharmacists generation of the prescription and nurses’ administration of the medicine. Using activity theory, activity templates are generated for pharmacists, nurses and the hospital to investigate the introduction of RFID. This paper finds that the introduction of RFID involves changes in the activities, as measured by changes in context variables, not just changes in technology. Also, the RFID-based approach eliminates substantial “medicine†slack. Further, using activity theory, the activity design for using RFID facilitates “technologically insulation†of pharmacists and nurses, from each other and doctors. Finally, such “digital specification†of activities likely leads to fewer errors, and constrains action, limiting inappropriate use of prescription drugs.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

By categorizing customer-perceived risks, and by integrating control measures and assurances into their offer, providers can design new and valuable services. Service value-chains involve various providers (implicitly or otherwise) who may engender annoyance and damages as risks are a sequence of events. This paper holds the potential to contribute to extending an understanding and management capacity of customer-perceived risks of knowledge-based services. It brings into play a new framework and new risk management process. It also helps with formalizing and making tangible customer added-value.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Appl.

Since 2008, Namibia has experienced recurrent floods and droughts that have affected 60 percent population. The overall problem in disaster relief is poor support for logistics. Thus, the purpose of this article is to evaluate the challenges faced by humanitarian logistics during disaster relief operation and examine strategies to overcome them for a non-profit organization (the Red Cross Society) in Namibia. The study adopts a quantitative, descriptive research design. With 25 employees, non-probabilistic sampling using a convenience sampling technique, the sample size is 21 (84%). The findings reveal critical challenges like proper sourcing relief supply, resources, transportation problems and difficulties in identifying initial relief requirement, which leads to difficulties delivering effective and efficient services to the affected areas.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

However, the organization must also consider the environment and create ways to sustain it. When continuous improvement models are enacted, companies with efficient environmental performance and high-sustainability policies create more value to stakeholders and shareholders. Such companies develop a strong competitive advantage because they maintain and attract more employees and customers. Unfortunately, in many cases, organizations focus on corporate responsibilities, some of which exclude environmental issues. As it is revealed in this research, the environment must be sustained so consumers of the manufactured products can enjoy the products in a safe environment. This research focuses on how continuous improvement can be used for environmental sustainability. Apart from highlighting difficulties in using continuous improvement for sustainability, the research presents other approaches and tools to incorporate CI principles into a sustainability program.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

As a result of the econometric analysis, it was found that there is no causal relationship between railroad freight transportation and economic growth in the long run, while there is a causality relationship from railroad freight transportation to economic growth in the short run. In addition to causality tests, an econometric model was created using stationary series, and the OLS method was applied for this model. According to this estimation result, an increase in railroad freight transportation increases economic growth. When this result obtained from the OLS estimation and the findings obtained from the Granger causality test are evaluated altogether, it can be stated that an increase in railroad freight transportation accelerates economic growth in the short run in Turkey.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Firms have responded by increasing and improving product traceability throughout their global supply. Traceability is a significant benefit to firms. Areas affected include quality control and product safety, tracking product recalls, and reverse logistics. Research does exist on the importance and benefits of implementing traceability initiatives but in very targeted areas. In addition, missing from the literature is the important discussion of what factors predicate firms to implement traceability initiatives beyond those prescribed by law and how industries other than very specific categories, create and implement effective traceability initiatives throughout the supply chain. In turn, the purpose of this research is to investigate traceability to gain greater understanding of why firms implement traceability & what actions or initiatives lead to greater traceability effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The theory of reasoned action (TRA), originating in the social psychology literature is the theoretical approach in this study. Interviews with drivers were conducted using the intercept method to develop a survey instrument. The survey was then administered to drivers at large truck stops. This study makes contributions on two fronts. From a managerial perspective the study results indicate that companies can use a technique such as this model as part of their driver retention efforts in order to create competitive advantage by increasing efficiency and cutting costs. The resulting logistic regression model, based on four factors, accounts for eighty eight percent of the variance and accurately predicts which drivers or driver classes are most at risk of turning over.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.

In this work, an original mathematical programming approach has been formulated and implemented in order to show that under specific but common conditions (the most important of which are: capacity of the retailer warehouse higher than the demand and than the vehicle capacity, a maximum of two drops for travel, unsatisfied demand lost and not backlogged), a true direct delivery VMI service may not be the best solution. Results are shown on a fictional network as well as on a real logistics system represented by a central depot and by a network of petrol service stations, giving evidence to some peculiar aspects of the VMI service which can be useful on their own to enhance the decision making strategies of a logistic company.","PeriodicalId":443888,"journal":{"name":"Int.
