With more firms engaging in global trade, reaping the benefits of offshoring and outsourcing a multitude of business functions worldwide, the increasing complexity continuously tests each company’s supply chain resilience and agility. The advent of e-commerce makes omnichannel more critical for traditional retailers. Omnichannel supply chains introduce an increased operational complexity to the information flows than that of traditional supply chains, including the need to coordinate numerous sales channels, multiple net-work nodes and decentralised inventory. A lack of end-to-end visibility of information flows can result in poor demand-supply matching and eventually cause service loss concerning stockouts. Accordingly, this study uses big data analytics to explore the relationship between forecast accuracy and visibility. A company in the fast-moving consumer goods industry centred on the Association of South-east Asian Nations region is employed as the empirical case. Not only determining correlations between the transmitted forecasts and actual supply needs but also insights into the growing emphasis on the omnichannel supply chain are discussed. Analytical results indicate that end-to-end visibility of information is highly correlated with forecast accuracy of demand, supply and production planning. The developed framework assists businesses in understanding the complexities of omnichannel operations and the benefits of information consolidation. This enhances businesses’ predictive analytics capabilities to facilitate supply chain planning and thus improve overall supply chain agility.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46505,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Shipping and Logistics","volume":"41 2","pages":"Pages 110-117"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144170650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the same time, various air and water pollutants, as well as other harmful environmental externalities caused by port activities, the Port also needs to address urgent environmental issues to ensure the sustainability of this sea trade. In this study, the essential elements of sustainable port operations are explored through a comprehensive systematic literature review, which is not just a collection of existing studies, but it also analyzes and synthesizes various approaches to evaluate port performance from an environmental sustainability perspective. The transition from theory to practice, in the second part through the focus group discussion of this study, has analyzed the views of the management of some leading Ports in Malaysia to understand how the concept of sustainability theory is implemented in practical situations. The results of this study provide a detailed view of the environmental initiatives and strategies implemented by interacting with those directly involved in the operation and management of Malaysian ports.

While onboard, seafarers, as the principal human element in the maritime industry, must face myriad physical and mental stresses and dynamic safety challenges. So far, many of these challenges have remained out of the scope of the maritime industry and research communities. Our earlier research addressed some human element-related challenges, including time constraints, fatigue and performing simultaneous tasks. This study addresses a crucial element that has yet to be adequately researched: seafarers' frustration at their workplace. It is essential because managing the high rate of maritime accidents due to task deviation and its underlying factor of frustration has been a significant challenge for the governing authorities of the maritime industry. This research constitutes a significant qualitative investigation, utilising interviews to explore an underlying factor contributing to maritime accidents. We show that workplace frustration is a significant cause of task deviation, leading to dangerous situations at sea. This paper presents four reasons for frustration at sea: physical hardship in conducting a task, social isolation, working with undesirable people, and severed expectations. Additionally, the main steps that the maritime industry can take to mitigate seafarers’ frustration at sea are recommended.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46505,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Shipping and Logistics","volume":"41 1","pages":"Pages 28-37"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143519043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, the importance of the top three priority factors was evaluated in the order of improvement of laws and systems, energy efficiency, and low-carbon infrastructure construction, confirming that to realize carbon neutrality at container terminals, it was necessary to first consider improving laws and systems that reflected realistic problems. According to the results of the priority analysis, the introduction of energy-saving equipment, the introduction of the AMP mandatory system, the provision of incentives to realize carbon neutrality, the establishment and implementation of low-carbon port policies, and the implementation of carbon-bearing regulatory measures, which are sub-factors of legal and institutional improvement, which were the highest importance of the top factors, ranked 2nd to 5th.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46505,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Shipping and Logistics","volume":"41 2","pages":"Pages 90-98"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144170680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
