Unfortunately, the real-life impacts of digital technology deployment in mitigating supply chain disruptions and enhancing resilience have not been fully evaluated, and it is unclear which digital technology deployment strategy had the greatest effect on firms' operations. This research seeks to fill this gap using data from the annual reports of 123 Chinese automotive manufacturers during the COVID-19 crisis. We focus on two dimensions of digital technology deployment: amount and category. Metrics describing financial and operational performance are used to estimate firms' overall performance. Additionally, this research presents econometric models to assess the effects of digital technology deployment from the two aforementioned dimensions. We found that the deployment of digital technology assets could mitigate negative effects on firms' performance during COVID-19 crisis, albeit with a time lag. Different categories of digital technology deployment, however, had different effects on firms' financial and operational performance. Digital front-end technologies were more efficient in improving the financial performance of the automotive firms. Meanwhile, digital base technologies were more impactful on the firms’ operational performance. This research contributes to the body of research on digital SCM and supply chain risk management by examining the effect of digital technologies from a dynamic capability perspective.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141039172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2023) expands upon their conceptualisation of supply chain finance (SCF), arguing for a more strategic perspective. It contends that SCF risks being relegated to an operational role within treasury departments, thus limiting its potential. This response proposes a redefined ideal type for SCF that transcends tactical leverages for shareholder value optimisation, positioning SCF as a key driver for systemic change. The formulation of this new ideal type revolves around three core dimensions: micro-foundations, institutions, and corporate purpose. Micro-foundations require a deeper understanding of credit ratings across supply chains and an incorporation of broader literature, particularly concerning innovative programmes such as PUMA's sustainable SCF. Institutional aspects involve acknowledging and integrating the impact of entities such as rating agencies and governmental bodies on SCF practices. Lastly, aligning SCF with corporate purposes beyond profit maximisation and as a catalyst for systemic change is proposed. This re-conceptualisation aims at revitalise SCF as a strategic tool capable of addressing broader societal challenges and, ultimately, redefining its role in supply chain management.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141057585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the relationship between a supplier's overall performance and the frequency and duration of supply chain disruptions is often suggested, it lacks substantial empirical evidence. We conducted three comprehensive empirical analyses using panel data involving 352 suppliers to investigate the relationship between supplier performance and supply chain disruptions. Our findings indicate a negative correlation between supplier performance and the frequency and duration of disruptions, that is, poorly performing suppliers are associated with more frequent and longer disruptions. Furthermore, disruption intensity (<em>disruption frequency</em> × <em>disruption duration</em>) exacerbates the negative impact on performance. We find that disruptions have a milder negative performance effect when they emanate from suppliers that have a history as “good performers” compared to “poor performers.” A supplementary analysis shows that disruptions notably affect supplier quality. This study bears significance for practitioners and contributes to the literature on supplier resilience. Our analyses highlight that supplier performance is not only an important predictor for the occurrence of supply chain disruptions but also mitigates (i.e., moderates) the negative effects in case they occur.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S147840922400027X/pdfft?md5=74a1267c4f7a80dee480c2cfaf6e3f0a&pid=1-s2.0-S147840922400027X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140578962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Revisiting circular economy indicators: A circular supply chain perspective","authors":"","doi":"10.1016/j.pursup.2024.100941","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.pursup.2024.100941","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>The accurate understanding and measurement of circularity in purchasing and supply management is crucial for organisations aiming to enhance sustainability, reduce costs, and comply with regulations. However, existing circular economy indicators do not account for all circularity dimensions (i.e., C₁-monetary, C₂-energy and environment, C₃-material, C₄-temporal and C₅-efficiency) and neglect key actors (i.e., collectors, recyclers, manufacturers, users) in the circular supply chain. Consequently, this results in biased decision-making when selecting supply chain partners, hindering the circular economy's progress. This study investigates the effectiveness of circular economy indicators and their constituent circular economy items at the circular supply chain level to better evaluate circular economy accomplishments. Out of the 63 circular economy indicators and 23 circular economy items identified, only three evaluate all five circularity dimensions, while nearly 40 percent fail to consider critical actors within the circular supply chain. Drawing on stakeholder theory, this study proposes a framework for developing an effective circular economy indicator. The proposed framework is validated through a hybrid approach, beginning with the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process to ascertain the weights of circular economy items, followed by the fuzzy technique of order preference similarity to the ideal solution to rank recycling alternatives using the determined weights, and culminating with the linear programming to optimise the circularity based on the established rankings. This research emphasises the importance of covering all circularity dimensions and targeting all circular supply chain actors in aligning the goals of different entities with the broader objectives of the circular economy. It is the first study to provide guidance on developing circular economy indicators and evaluating circular economy performance from a circular supply chain perspective, serving as a solid foundation to achieve circular economy agendas. It affords purchasing and supply practitioners the opportunity to augment decision-making processes, optimise sustainability efforts, and bolster supply chain regulatory adherence and governance.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1478409224000475/pdfft?md5=b279d4e770864bbc338e1cc2ed863591&pid=1-s2.0-S1478409224000475-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141035126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a result, this study aims to investigate the interrelationship between CP barriers. Firstly, this study explores barriers through a thorough review of relevant literature with input from academic and industrial experts. Utilizing a classical triple-level framework, the work identifies and categorizes 21 barriers. Secondly, the study employs interpretive structural modeling (ISM) to examine the contextual relationships among the barriers. Thirdly, these barriers are classified into different categories using the MICMAC technique, based on their driving and dependence power. The research findings develop a hierarchical model of barriers, offering insights into which barriers are the most crucial and need immediate attention and how different barriers could influence each other. The study's unique contributions lie in its identification of hierarchical relationships between barriers and its categorization (independent, linkage, and dependent), contributing to tailored strategies for effective CP implementation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47950,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1478409224000414/pdfft?md5=ef82aca712415fdd27931de8e9241bae&pid=1-s2.0-S1478409224000414-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141055673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analyzing a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2010 to 2020 based on logit regression models, we find that supplier firms engaging in public procurement are more likely to adopt CE practices. In addition, we find that an increase in firms’ market power weakens the positive effect of public procurement on CE adoption, whereas government attention and institutional ownership strengthen this effect.

This interpretivist qualitative study provides insights into the managerial sensemaking of the circular SC transition, including the barriers faced and the strategic actions taken to overcome the barriers and realize desired outcomes. Semi-structured interviews with 19 change agents were combined with a cognitive mapping approach. The individual cognitive structures were synthesized into an overarching sensemaking map that captured the informants’ perceptions and social construction of the circular SC transition. The findings reveal four shared cognitive frames (i.e., the most plausible schemes) held by change agents: (1) SC cooperation, (2) circular business models, (3) circular design, and (4) material choice. Moreover, we develop a framework that highlights how sensemaking contributes to the calibration of cognitive frames and the strategies pursued by individuals.
