Abstract In a competitive working environment, conscious workers and stringent labour regulations have forced Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) to focus on operational performance along with workers' performance and their health issues. Evidence from literature uncovered that lean implementation in the manufacturing industry worsens the workers' health and safety due to the lack of consideration of social aspects. This ignorance has forced SMEs to focus on considering social aspects along with economic and environmental aspects for improving their workers' health and safety. Therefore, this study aims to develop a tool that integrates lean and ergonomics to improve the workers' health and safety, along with operational performance. Hence, Human Factors and Ergonomic (HFE) indicators were incorporated into the VSM tool under a fuzzy environment. The Fuzzy-based Ergonomic-Value Stream Mapping (E-VSM) tool identifies the area of scope for ergonomic and managerial interventions at the workplace and evaluates the HFE indicators with lean indicators. This integrated tool helps management to improve the Workers’ health and safety and enhance operational performance synergistically.

Abstract This research investigated the causes of delays in offshore wind projects, categorizing, and ranking these factors using statistical analysis. The study presented was based on the analysis of 208,140 historical data points from seven different cases, investigating both the onshore and offshore on-site assembly locations. The findings revealed that the dominant delay factor is ‘planning’ at the onshore assembly location and ‘previous task’ at the offshore assembly location. This challenges the current perception that weather is the dominant cause of delay in offshore wind projects. This analysis and its results categorize and rank delay factors between on-site assembly locations, proffering a better understanding and insights into this domain. This is relevant to both academics and practitioners, not only in on- and off-shore wind projects but also in other project types handling remote or multiple assembly locations.

Supply chains (SC) are increasingly complex and if the resulting complexity is not managed effectively, it could lead to adverse consequences for the firm. The effect big data analytics (BDA) can have on managing distinct types of SC complexity is not well understood in the extant literature. Based on a sample of 166 firms from Pakistan, this study empirically investigates the effects of BDA, and of structural and dynamic SC complexities, on SC resilience. The study also investigates the role of BDA as a mediator between SC complexities and SC resilience. We find that structural SC complexity positively affects SC resilience, while there doesn’t seem to be a significant impact for dynamic SC complexity. We also find a mediating effect of BDA for structural and dynamic SC complexities on SC resilience. Our results contribute to the extant literature investigating BDA and SC resilience by offering a more nuanced understanding of distinct types of SC complexities. We establish a more critical understanding of the role of BDA in mediating the critical link between the two types of SC complexity and SC resilience. The proposed model highlights that there are both direct and indirect effects between structural SC complexity and SC resilience, however dynamic SC complexity only influences SC resilience via BDA. These findings provide strategic insights for SC executives as to where to invest in BDA to build much needed SC resilience.

Abstract This study contributes to the literature by exploring, from a multidisciplinary viewpoint, the emerging discipline of asset management, and by providing a better understanding of the motives for and barriers to asset-intensive organisations’ adoption of asset management systems (AMS). To this end, the authors conceptualise and explore the core themes of AMS, and link this novel body of knowledge to organisational motives for and barriers to the formal introduction of AMS. The study collects and analyses empirical data from 93 middle/senior managers in Slovenian organisations dealing with engineered assets. The results, obtained by applying partial least squares path modelling, show that internal motives, such as better control of operational processes and continuous improvement, are the main drivers of the introduction of AMS. The potential increase in documentation and bureaucracy, and lack of resources, were identified as the main barriers to AMS implementation. By assessing the factors that facilitate and inhibit formal AMS implementation, the study provides important insights into developing strategies to promote the novel and important discipline of asset management.

Abstract We investigate the link between supply chain (SC) flexibility and responsiveness. Our study contributes to the literature by examining how SC flexibility, as a multi-dimensional construct, affects customer responsiveness and if this relationship is moderated by the innovation orientation of a firm. Using data from 225 Swedish manufacturers, we test our proposed empirical model and find empirical support for the positive effects of the supply chain flexibility dimensions on customer responsiveness. In addition, we found support for the strengthening effect of innovation orientation on the link between internal flexibility and customer responsiveness. The empirical validation of the relationship between the multi-dimensional SC flexibility and customer responsiveness which is moderated by the innovation orientation is an original contribution to both theory and practice.

Abstract With globalisation, the use of performance measurement systems (PMS) for managing international operations is increasing. The purpose of this research is to explore how differences in national culture impact on the design and use of PMS. Despite considerable literature investigating the impact of national culture on management practices in general, studies focussing on understanding the impact of national culture on PMS are scarce. This study adopts an analytical framework based on social and technical controls, PMS lifecycle and Hofstede’s six dimensions of national culture to explore the complex impact of national culture on PMS using 10 case studies from five culturally diverse regions. Findings clarify previously inconclusive research results by explaining how various dimensions of national culture influence the technical and social dimensions of PMS. They also highlight, for the first time, the significance of the masculinity dimension of national culture. The paper concludes with recommendations for future research.

Abstract An Analytical Network Process (ANP) was created to test the Lean and BIM concepts with data collected from U.S. companies to find the success factors of the Lean/BIM framework. After an extensive literature review, a total of 17 sub-categories for Lean/BIM are classified into three clusters, namely Communication, Production, and Visualization. An ANP network is then established to station the links between the attributes of the framework while computing their importance weights. Eight experienced civil engineers took part in the questionnaire study to assess the relations between the attributes. The main purpose of this study is to reveal the synergy between Lean and BIM with different components reflecting this synergy and present the Lean and BIM synergy on a comprehensive model. The results indicate that Production is the prominent cluster and Production Control, Standardization and Information accuracy are the most important factors in the Lean/BIM synergy. To validate the model, five construction projects were selected to test and observe the results accordingly. The study is expected to help construction industry leaders set their priorities, benefit more from the interaction between Lean and BIM, and revise their strategies accordingly. This study identifies Lean/BIM categories and subcategories as a roadmap for research and implementation. In this context, the study reveals the relationship between the categories/subcategories along with the weights and most and less important categories for Lean/BIM implementation and research.

Abstract The interest in megaproject management and the role of innovation is increasing. However, the literature on this subject is fragmented, with studies focussing on ‘standard’ projects, failing to recognize the different nature of megaprojects, or discussing innovation dimensions as distinct components. The main aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive understanding of innovation in megaprojects. By means of a systematic literature review this paper synthesizes and analyzes the current academic literature on innovation in megaprojects and identifies potential research gaps. The paper presents the results of the descriptive and content analysis of the identified body of knowledge. We contribute to the literature by developing a theoretical integrated model of innovation in megaprojects, identifying dimensions of innovation, and deriving some propositions on these dimensions as well as the interactions between them. Key findings of the paper for the successful implementation of innovation in megaprojects include the planning for dynamic capability bundles and an innovation process that fits with the innovation package and its actualizing and complementary innovation interactions.

Abstract The focus of Industry 4.0 (I4) technologies is to address the issue of scarce resources and improve productivity by providing solutions to economise the use of limited resources and find other substitute raw materials. Circular economy (CE) is also identified as a solution to manage the increasing pressure of environmental regulations, price volatility in resources, and supply uncertainty. However, the relationship between I4 technologies, CE and sustainable performance (SP) is still unexplored and demands a more conceptual and empirical investigation on understanding how the I4 technologies favour the transition towards CE practices and what impact they have together on SP. Based on a survey of 238 manufacturing practitioners from India, the study investigates the mediating and moderating role of CE practices on the relationship between I4 technologies and SP. The findings reveal that developing an environment of CE is not a prerequisite for implementing I4 technologies. However, I4 technologies support developing efficient CE environment, which, leads to the achievement of sustainable organisational goals. Future research directions and implications for practitioners are provided.

Abstract This study examines (i) how eco-friendly product development helps translate sustainable customer orientation into social supply chain performance in SMEs and (ii) how the cooperation with non-traditional stakeholders (environmental nongovernmental organizations (ENGOs) and local public administrations) moderates this relationship. Drawing on the natural and stakeholder resource-based views, and the relational view theory, this study tests the proposed moderated mediation model using data from 146 thousand small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Results indicate that sustainable customer orientation is negatively associated with SME social supply chain performance. However, the relationship becomes positive when we take into account the mediating role of eco-friendly product development. Furthermore, the positive association between sustainable customer orientation and social supply chain performance through eco-friendly product development is stronger for firms that collaborate strongly with ENGOs and local public administrations. Several theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.
