Blockchain can provide transparent, trustworthy, secure, and efficient carbon-related transactions. Signaling and attribution theories inform the study that uses choice-based conjoint (CBC) experimentation to evaluate offsetting and insetting carbon finance investment scenarios. Factors on project attributes—including price, the scope of carbon finance project, blockchain adoption level, and stakeholder involvement—relationships to managerial investment decisions are investigated. We also investigate an important question on whether managerial ecological value propensity affects investment decisions and blockchain adoption preferences. The findings show that contrary to original suppositions, price was not as influential as presumed. Of greater concern to managerial decisions is the nature of carbon initiatives—the decision on whether to pursue carbon offsetting and/or insetting investments. Managerial environmental values significantly influenced decisions on carbon finance investments–with a preference for carbon reduction projects within their own supply chains. There is also an inclination for greater blockchain technology usage in carbon investment projects. Managers with greater ecological values were also more open to involving external parties favoring the adoption more extensive blockchain solutions. These results highlight blockchain's importance in making carbon finance projects more credible and trustworthy. Practically, the study highlights the importance of carbon finance project scope, nature, and blockchain technology in promoting sustainability initiatives. There are insights into a nuanced approach to addressing complexities of carbon finance within organizations and their supply chains.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48090,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Logistics","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142860634","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 additive manufacturing (AM) offers a solution by minimizing costs and complexity, not all firms adopt AM equally, and research on differences in AM adoption in the context of spare part shortages is surprisingly scarce. To close this knowledge gap, we apply the <i>awareness-motivation-capability</i> (AMC) perspective. Our comparative case study of AM applications in 17 firms identifies three approaches how firms adopt AM—the corrective, preventive, and anticipatory approach. We find that the specific configuration of contextual factors related to a spare part shortage determines the approach firms follow. Using the AMC perspective, we discover and explain why firms differ in adopting AM despite suitable spare part characteristics and similar contexts. Through uniquely analyzing spare part shortages, our study contributes to AM research by challenging the assumption that economic justification is the sole driver of AM adoption and instead revealing that it is a context-dependent process, with <i>awareness</i> and <i>motivation</i> serving as critical yet underexplored antecedents.</p>","PeriodicalId":48090,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Logistics","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jbl.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142737493","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}

In this study, we follow a middle-range theory approach to capture the facets of delivery performance that are considered by customers in their assessments of e-LSQ during CD encounters. Using a large dataset consisting of customers' reviews of their delivery service experiences with Amazon Prime Now prior to and post-CD incorporation, we find that customers value a more nuanced operational dimension as well as relational and societal dimensions in their assessments of the delivery service.

Adopting a structured approach, we provide a roadmap for supply chain network evolution (SCNE) to systematically build a multidimensional understanding of SCNE and bridge the gap between theoretical underpinnings and research methods useful to investigate SCNE. We first broaden the scope to identify insights on dynamic network evolution from a wider array of disciplines. Next, we categorize the drivers of SCNE identified within the business literature into exogenous and endogenous factors. We then synthesize theoretical frameworks that lay the groundwork for future research directions proposed in the context of these frameworks. Finally, we outline contemporary methodologies for studying network evolution and evaluate their relevance and application to the supply chain management (SCM) field.

The operations and logistics management literature suggests that optimizing tertiary packaging, which groups products into full unit loads for storage and shipping, is an important way to improve order picking performance. While most retailers handle products at the level of secondary packaging when fulfilling orders, this packaging level remains largely unexplored. To address this gap, we analyze 3,380,596 picks performed by 185 order pickers of 4957 products in a grocery retail warehouse in Germany. Our findings indicate that secondary packaging characteristics directly affect order picking performance and that this effect is moderated by traditional product characteristics (e.g., product weight and volume), as well as elements of warehouse design (e.g., pick and stack levels). From a managerial perspective, our findings may help to bridge the gap between logistics managers and packaging engineers and provoke further research on the trade-off between operational and environmental performance.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48090,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Logistics","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142642295","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}

The burgeoning interest in the supply chain management (SCM) literature toward consumer-centric research is capturing the attention of scholars and sparking diverse calls to action. While a significant growth in SCM research has centered on consumers as the unit of analysis over the past decade, it remains necessary to improve understanding of how the role of consumers as actors within the supply chain dynamic has evolved. We aim to enhance consumer-centric SCM research by conducting a systematic literature review that summarizes and synthesizes SCM studies that focus on consumers as the unit of analysis. Our review encompasses 174 articles from 16 leading journals. We bundle the literature based on two key trajectories: (i) major functions involved in SCM activities, and (ii) phases of the customer journey. To synthesize the literature, we develop a framework that encompasses the following elements: (i) factors influencing consumer-centric SCM, (ii) resultant consumer-related outcomes, and (iii) retail supply chain structures.

Traditional strategies focus on restoring operations to pre-disruption states while largely maintaining the existing supply network structure. Recent cases, however, highlight a different approach: supply chain plasticity, wherein firms undergo significant structural shifts in supply network design as a response to disruptions with the goal to improve performance. Drawing on the foundations of supply chain responsiveness and network theory, we investigate how (and if) firms redesign their supply chains against a backdrop of increased disruptions and the implications supply chain plasticity has on resilience. Rooted in network theory, this study not only theoretically compares, contrasts, and connects prior concepts with supply chain plasticity but also empirically investigates whether firms exhibit a plastic response by modifying their supply chain network structures—specifically focusing on structural holes, centrality, and clustering network dimensions. Furthermore, we hypothesize that network plasticity impacts firm performance in the form of time to recover from a disruption. The findings demonstrate that the existence and significance of network plasticity in shaping firm responses to disruptions are indeed present and can be beneficial. We also provide evidence that supply chain plasticity is an efficacious strategy to enhance resilience and recovery performance amidst heightened disruption frequency. As firms increasingly face dynamic and complex environments, understanding and leveraging network plasticity will be vital for sustaining competitive advantage and achieving long-term success.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48090,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Business Logistics","volume":"45 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142429277","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}
