  1. 1. Toward resilient product-based service supply chains

    Författare :Gabriella Gatenholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; product-based services; service development; Supply Chain; service supply chain; sustainability; circular economy; risk; resilience;

    Sammanfattning : Circular economies represent a step toward breaking the linear production model in supply chains. As drivers of enhanced circularity, product-based service (PBS) offerings extend and/or intensify the utilization period of products and thus decelerate the flow of resources. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Be lean to be resilient : Setting capabilities for turbulent times

    Författare :Seyoum Eshetu Birkie; Matti Kaulio; Paolo Trucco; Jussi Heikkilä; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Resilience; lean production; synergy; supply chain disruption; dynamic capabilities; mixed method approach; uncertainties; Industriell ekonomi och organisation; Industrial Engineering and Management;

    Sammanfattning : Businesses globally are challenged to innovate their operations strategies and practices towards tighter delivery times, better quality and cheaper prices to remain profitable in addition to managing unpredictable circumstances well in today’s turbulent business environment. They often have to deal with the apparent paradox of advancing efficiency-fostering approaches such as lean production, and enhancing operational resilience against unanticipated disruptions.

    Nyckelord :Procurement management; Sawmill industry; Supply uncertainties; Buyer-supplier relationships; Bucking; Contractual forms; Strategy; Case Studies; FORESTRY; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES and LANDSCAPE PLANNING; SKOGS- och JORDBRUKSVETENSKAP samt LANDSKAPSPLANERING;

    Sammanfattning : Procurement of sawlogs to purchasing sawmills represents a basic strategic business process. The properties of inbound sawlogs are decisive for the output of sawn products and the cost of raw material contributes substantially to the cost of the final product. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Decision Support Model for a Sustainable Regional Water Supply

    Författare :Karin Sjöstrand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multi-criteria decision analysis; inter-municipal cooperation; drinking water supply; cost-benefit analysis; decision support; regionalization; sustainability; economic valuation;

    Sammanfattning : Water supply provision has traditionally been a municipal responsibility. However, environmental, social and economic drivers are now making it more attractive to manage the water services in a more aggregated way. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Exploring Themes and Challenges in Developing Sustainable Supply Chains - A Complexity Theory Perspective

    Författare :Maisam Abbasi; Förpackningslogistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Supply Chain; Logistic; Sustainable Development; Sustainability; Complexity;

    Sammanfattning : To develop sustainable supply chains in a way that their negative environmental and social effects are minimized, shortand long-term targets should be set. The transformation of supply chains towards these targets calls for the development of innovative strategies and the need to continuously identify, classify, and tackle the challenges that can hinder the execution of such strategies.
