This study aims to identify and assess risk factors within China's NEV supply chain. We develop a comprehensive risk prioritization system comprising 28 factors categorized into two dimensions: internal and external risks, as well as abilities and status. Using the Fuzzy-DEMATEL method, risk factors in China's NEV supply chain are evaluated. The results indicate that the NEV appears an evident risk characteristic of upstream and external driven, i.e., upstream risk, environmental risk, and political risk exert a significant impact on other risk factors within the supply chain. Contrarily, midstream and downstream aspects are more susceptible to external influences. In addition, we develop an oversight risk identification approach via integrating Fuzzy-DEMATEL, Tanimoto similarity, and CRITIC methodologies. This approach emphasizes uncovering easily overlooked risk factors originating from discrepancies in expert decision-making, particularly in emerging industries such as NEV. The results emphasize the significance of addressing often-neglected risk factors such as pollution, infrastructure setup, and information sharing, warranting attention from governmental and industry stakeholder.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1434-1439"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143883485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By applying a quantum perspective on tensions, and an understanding of tensions based on their salience, a framework is developed for observing, acting, and reacting on a large set of entangled tensions, as a continuum of tensions. The well-documented case of Boeing 737 MAX is used to explore the extensive set of entangled tensions involved in the development of complex systems and the possibilities to act on these tensions. The analysis shows that an actionability perspective on the dialectic tensions potentially offers a deep insight into the challenges that organizations are facing when engineering complex systems. Two major aspects emerge as crucial for addressing complex systems: First, actionable salience as the ability of an organization to identify and select important tensions in several perspectives, and second, actionable resolution as the ability to address and resolve a set of salient, often complex, and entangled tensions that have been identified. Opportunities for further research are identified in relation to the management of increasingly digitalized complex systems and the emergence of complex intelligent systems.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1404-1416"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10949738","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143860959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in China often encounter obstacles or even failures in its implementation. Industry 4.0 technologies have been proven to share a close connection with lean management. Nevertheless, research on integrating lean management with digitalization to advance its implementation remains limited. The purpose of this article is to develop practical lean digitalization strategies for SMEs in China, addressing the gaps in research and practice, and aiding these enterprises in enhancing their competitiveness. This article conducts a 4-year case study to track the lean digitization process of a Chinese SME and developed an implementation plan through participatory academic research. The article reveals that appropriate digitalization fosters the implementation of lean management, though certain performance indicators exhibit a pattern of initial decline followed by subsequent improvement. Based on the research findings, we develop a continuous improvement model centered around key performance indicators and goal orientation, and establish a lean digitization control system by identifying 80 control metrics and 35 control objectives for production floor management. The effective implementation of this approach has led to a significant enhancement in the level of onsite management within the enterprise. This article holds both theoretical and practical significance, bridging gaps in engineering management literature and offering insights for enterprises to achieve lean digitalization.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1546-1558"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143896498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, the increasing frequency and impacts of natural disasters appear to be causing unexpected damage to infrastructure, even in locations that may have significant emergency response capabilities like military installations. We argue that a key contributor to these failures is whether natural disasters cause <italic>surprise</i> or not. We define surprise as an event that contradicts established beliefs, which can lead to ineffective use of resources for temporary organizing and impact infrastructure resilience. To substantiate this claim, we develop a method that relates surprise to measures of infrastructure resilience and conduct a case study on the destructive 2018 storm Hurricane Florence to assess temporary organizing efforts at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune (MCBCL). Our analysis focuses on recovery efforts to manage failures in MCBCL sewer, training ground, school, and mission-essential infrastructure. We find each system experienced varying degrees of surprise that influenced temporary organizing. Specifically, results show when expectations diverged from reality, how long surprise remained unresolved, and whether events should be categorized as situational or fundamental surprise. Results also show the type surprise (i.e., situational or fundamental) and length it remains unresolved has a negative impact on the effectiveness of resources for temporary organizing. Overall, this study advances the temporary organizing literature by showing the differences in capabilities between civilian and military entities, the infrastructure resilience literature by developing new analysis methods for studying surprise, and military installation operations by providing practical recommendations on how to improve resource allocation for future disasters.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1500-1518"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143896246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, contradictory findings in existing research have led to ambiguous guidance regarding how interorganizational trust influences conflict resolution. From the social embeddedness perspective, this study constructs a moderated mediation model of conflict resolution and proposes a set of hypotheses. It distinguishes interorganizational trust into two dimensions: trust and distrust, investigating their respective effects on conflict management styles and subjective values, with the conflict intensity as a moderator. Employing multivariate hierarchical regression analysis, this study tests the hypotheses with questionnaire data collected from the construction industry. The results reveal that the effects of trust and distrust are not opposite but rather asymmetric, contrary to common intuition. Specifically, trust exerts a greater effect on integrative behavior, while distrust exerts a greater effect on distributive behavior. Moreover, conflict intensity negatively moderates the positive relationship between distrust and distributive behavior, as well as between trust and integrative behavior. Integrative behavior promotes both instrumental subjective value and self-subjective value, while distributive behavior promotes instrumental and process subjective value. This study constructs the mechanism for the conflict resolution process and provides practical guidance for construction project managers to adopt strategic and effective approaches in managing interorganizational conflicts.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1417-1433"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143860957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the optimization of discount decisions within e-marketplaces has received limited attention. Specifically, theoretical gaps exist in analyzing discount pricing decisions with respect to dynamic system states and supplier-e-retailer interactions. This study addresses these gaps by proposing a dynamic, coordinated discount pricing approach for e-marketplaces, incorporating key system state measures—inventory and reputation. By utilizing a combined coordination-dynamic game model, our approach extends existing discount pricing frameworks into a structured and adaptive discount pricing strategy, offering practical insights for suppliers and e-retailers to enhance economic performance. We demonstrate that optimizing discounts within an adaptive framework with a coordinated focus on inventory and reputation reduces inventory shortages significantly (by 18% –24% ) and enhances goodwill (by 3.5% ), aligning with the key objectives of improving efficiency and responsiveness in technologically integrated supply chains. We further validate our findings through robustness checks, including stability testing, a comparison of stockout levels under dynamic and static discount pricing, and sensitivity analyses on demand volatility, confirming the model's reliability across varying conditions.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1532-1545"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143896294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Green building technology innovation (GBTI) has been widely developed to achieve sustainability. Interorganizational collaboration facilitates a communication platform for stakeholders, characterized by network. However, few studies have specifically delved into the underpinnings of the evolution of GBTI collaboration networks and how proximity mechanisms underpin GBTI collaboration networks. Drawing on collaborative patents data from the Derwent Innovation Index, we empirically provide valuable insights into GBTI collaboration networks in China's construction industry from a multidimensional proximity perspective. Social network analysis is deployed to construct and depict the spatial-temporal evolution paths of GBTI collaboration networks. Besides, quadratic assignment procedure analysis is utilized to explore the driving factors of GBTI collaboration networks. The results reveal that GBTI collaboration networks become expansive and exhibit small-world properties. Organizational collaboration shows a multicore radiative diffusion trend over temporal hierarchy. There are noticeable spillover effects within regional collaboration, which are closely related to geospatial agglomeration. Besides, the positive impacts of geographical and social proximity strengthen, whereas institutional and organizational proximity gradually diminish. Geographical proximity also acts as a moderator, showing a complementarity with institutional and organizational proximity, and a substitution with social proximity. This study not only enhances our understanding of collaborative innovation management but also gives profound insights into the evolutionary mechanism of collaborative relationships in GBTI. It provides valuable reference and guidance for formulating relevant policies and strategies.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1454-1470"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143883327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Live streaming offers retailers a new strategy for dealing with manufacturer encroachment and has either a positive flow effect or a negative cannibalization effect on the possible direct channel. In this study, we construct a game-theoretic model to explore a retailer's live streaming strategy with a manufacturer who may encroach upon the retail market. We find that manufacturer encroachment always hurts the retailer in the absence of live streaming. However, in the presence of live streaming, the retailer can benefit from manufacturer encroachment if the flow effect of live streaming on the direct channel is significant. When the competition intensity is moderate and the flow effect is insignificant, with the manufacturer always encroaching, the retailer does not introduce live streaming even if the fixed cost is rather low; otherwise, the retailer will embrace live streaming at a lower fixed cost but not when it is high. Moreover, when the flow effect is significant, introducing live streaming when the fixed cost is low may motivate the manufacturer to choose encroachment even in the face of weak channel competition. Conversely, when the cannibalization effect of live streaming is significant, introducing live streaming when the fixed cost is low may discourage the manufacturer's encroachment when the competition intensity is moderate. However, in both scenarios, the manufacturer may benefit from the retailer's live streaming, resulting in a “win–win” situation, even if it prevents the manufacturer from encroaching.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1668-1684"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143908338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study discovers key challenges of the e-participatory budgeting (e-PB) model in Estonia using an exploratory case study research method in software engineering. We conducted semistructured interviews with 16 participants, including local government officials from multiple Estonian municipalities, e-democracy experts, citizens, and IT and/or participatory budgeting (PB) project managers, using a snowball-purpose sampling technique. The study highlights the main issues in existing e-PB systems, such as lack of public deliberation, inadequate tracking of PB funds, low citizen participation, transparency issues, data manipulation risks, and inclusivity concerns. Our findings indicate that the core attributes of blockchain, including decentralization, immutability, traceability, and disintermediation, mitigate these issues. These intrinsic characteristics of blockchain prevent data manipulation risks, facilitate tracking of the status and budget of the PB project, and ensure equal participation, thus fostering citizen trust in the e-PB system. We propose a conceptual model of blockchain-based e-PB that unifies multiple e-PB systems into a single platform. Finally, we discuss the practical implications for engineering managers and policymakers who integrate blockchain-based solutions into e-governance systems.","PeriodicalId":55009,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management","volume":"72 ","pages":"1376-1403"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143848857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
