PurposeThe aim of this study is, from the perspective of artisan entrepreneurship, to trace and analyse the artisan's profile in the sustainable development of low population density cross-border territories, using the quintuple helix innovation model.Design/methodology/approachTen semi-structured interviews were conducted with cultural and traditional artisans to achieve the proposed objective using a qualitative approach. The artisans are from Northeast Portugal (Bragança, Miranda do Douro, Mogadouro, Vimioso and Vinhais) and Northern Spain (Province of Zamora). The interviews were conducted face-to-face between May and June 2022. The interviews were manually transcribed and subjected to content and lexical analyses using IRaMuTeQ software.FindingsAn artisan was identified as an enterprising individual whose marketed handicraft pieces transmit the values and teachings of his community. Innovation, technology, sustainability and circular economy in a family environment, where dedication, resilience, happiness and hard work transmit an identity that places the artisan and his artisan practice as the driving force for the enhancement and promotion of his territory, cultural heritage and identity.Originality/valueThis work is the first study to address and treat the issue of artisan entrepreneurship by analysing and defining the cultural-based and traditional artisan profile in a cross-border and low population density territorial context.
目的本研究的目的是从工匠创业的角度，利用五重螺旋创新模型，追踪和分析工匠在低人口密度跨境地区可持续发展中的形象。设计/方法/方法对文化和传统工匠进行了10次半结构化访谈，以使用定性方法实现拟议目标。工匠来自葡萄牙东北部（Bragança、Miranda do Douro、Mogadouro、Vimioso和Vinhais）和西班牙北部（萨莫拉省）。访谈于2022年5月至6月间进行。访谈是人工转录的，并使用IRaMuTeQ软件进行内容和词汇分析。发现一位工匠被认为是一个有进取心的人，其销售的手工艺品传达了他所在社区的价值观和教义。在家庭环境中的创新、技术、可持续性和循环经济，在这里，奉献精神、韧性、幸福感和辛勤工作传递了一种身份认同，使工匠及其工匠实践成为增强和推广其领土、文化遗产和身份的原动力。独创性/价值这项工作是第一项通过分析和定义跨境和低人口密度地区背景下基于文化和传统的工匠形象来解决和处理工匠创业问题的研究。

PurposeThis study investigates the impacts of return channel type on the relationships between return service quality (RSQ) and customer loyalty (CL) in an omnichannel retailing environment.Design/methodology/approachData comes from Chinese customers having a return experience in omnichannel retailing that uses the channel type of both buy-online-return-in-store (BORIS) and buy-in-store-return-to-online warehouses (BSROW). The authors use the structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses and the bootstrapping method to test the mediation and moderation effect.FindingsFor BORIS channel, satisfaction of customer returns (CRS) partially mediates the relationship between convenience and CL, and fully mediates that between CL and responsiveness, transparency and competence, respectively. For BSROW channel, CRS partially mediates the relationship between responsiveness and CL, and fully mediates that between CL and convenience, transparency and competence, respectively. The mediation effects indicate that omnichannel customers may feel more satisfied due to higher omnichannel fulfillment (responsiveness and convenience) and omnichannel trust (transparency and competence) provided by retailers. Return channel type moderates the relationship between RSQ-convenience and CL. The results show the different expectations between BORIS and BSROW customers in the return process.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper serves as a pioneering study to apply cognition-affect-behavior paradigm into the field of return management in omnichannel retailing.Practical implicationsThe findings suggest retailers develop their strategies on customer returns and post-sales service quality improvement in the omnichannel. Also, retailers should develop an integrated return system across channels to provide convenient service to BORIS customers and quick response to BSROW customers.Originality/valueStudying return service management in the omnichannel from customer's cognition appraisal, this study contributes to the literature of the reverse service management by bringing in the effect of omnichannel type to explore the relationship between RSQ and CL.

本研究旨在探讨企业如何将大数据分析(BDA)转化为可持续的竞争优势，并利用BDA提高业务绩效。此外，本研究确定了有助于BDA能力的各种资源和子能力。采用经典扎根理论(GT)、资源基础理论(resource-based theory)和动态能力理论(dynamic capability, DC)进行访谈，并进行探索性归纳。通过数据的收集、分析和比较之间的不断迭代过程，主题及其关系出现。在数据收集和分析的后期阶段，文献被用作数据集的一部分，以确定研究结果如何与现有文献相吻合，并丰富新兴概念及其关系。通过数据分析，我们建立了一个BDA能力的概念模型，该模型描述了BDA如何通过组织学习(OL)的中介影响对企业绩效做出贡献。研究结果表明，缺乏BDA能力维度及其子维度，BDA能力是不完整的，无法实现预期的提升。研究的局限性/意义本研究通过扩展BDA能力模型和描述每个维度在构建能力中的作用，为如何将BDA转化为企业范围的计划提供了见解。此外，本文还为管理者提供了关于BDA能力如何持续促进OL，培养组织知识和组织能力，以感知、抓住和重新配置数据和知识，抓住数字机会，以保持竞争优势的见解。原创性/价值本文是第一个使用GT来确定数据驱动型公司如何获得和维持BDA竞争优势的探索性研究，超越了先前主要采用假设-演绎立场来调查BDA能力的研究。虽然作者发现了BDA能力的各个维度并确定了几个因素，但之前的一些相关研究表明，其中一些维度是形成因素(例如Lozada等人，2019;Mikalef et al.， 2019)和其他一些研究将BDA能力的不同维度描述为反射因素(例如Wamba和Akter, 2019;法拉利等人，2019)。因此，发现有必要正确定义不同的维度及其贡献，因为形成性和反射性模型代表了实现能力的各种方法。在这条线上，作者使用GT作为一种探索性方法，概念化BDA能力及其对企业绩效的贡献机制。本研究引入了在以前的研究中未被检验的新的能力维度。研究还讨论了OL如何中介BDA能力对企业绩效的影响，这被认为是BDA能力的隐藏价值。

PurposeIn the digital age, emerging technologies have affected every industry. Information and communications technology and digital technologies have transformed traditional supply chains into smart and more resilient ones, enabling effective management of challenges. Given the importance of the two topics, namely sustainable supply chain management and Industry 4.0 in supply chain management, on the one hand, and the dearth of theoretical research performed in this area on the other, this study aims to propose a conceptual model on a sustainable digital supply chain management in manufacturing companies.Design/methodology/approachThis study utilized a qualitative approach. First, an in-depth review of the relevant literature was done. Then, following a multi-grounded theory methodology, relevant data were gathered by reviewing 92 papers and conducting nine semi-structured interviews with industry experts. These data were analyzed using the MAXQDA software.FindingsA total of 41 concepts, ten sub-components and three main components (dimensions) were extracted, and the proposed conceptual model was presented. Finally, based on this conceptual model, three propositions were suggested.Research limitations/implicationsConsidering that the present study was performed in the context of Iranian manufacturing companies, caution should be exercised in relation to the generalizability of the obtained results. Also, due to the problems in the digital technology infrastructure and the limited use of these technologies by manufacturing companies (emphasized by the interviewees), this study focused on the theoretical dimension of using digital technologies by these companies.Practical implicationsThe proposed comprehensive model can help academicians as well as practitioners to focus better and explore the variables and constructs of the model, paving the way toward successful implementation of digital technologies in the manufacturing supply chain.Originality/valueTo the best knowledge of the authors, this study is among the first of its kind which presents a holistic and comprehensive digital supply chain model aimed at guiding companies to consider sustainability from all the main dimensions and their relevant indicators.

PurposeDue to the unprecedented disruptions in business operations, many organisations are turning to Cloud ERP implementation to ensure employees can access real-time business information from anywhere, enabling the continuity of business activities. As a result, over the past decades, literature on Cloud ERP implementation has seen significant growth across different subject areas. This paper aims to present a systematic literature review (SLR) that consolidates the literature scattered across various multidisciplinary subject areas, explores recent developments and identifies knowledge gaps for more impactful future research.Design/methodology/approachAn SLR approach has been applied to a sample of 73 articles published until 1 February 2022.FindingsOur SLR identifies and consolidates a set of critical enablers and barriers to the implementation of Cloud ERP. What is particularly interesting is that this study established a link between these enablers and barriers and four key innovation outcomes: product, service, process and business model innovations. A rigorous framework has been devised that demonstrates the nexus between enablers and barriers to Cloud ERP implementation and innovation outcomes in an organisation. In addition, this study has recognised several organisational theories from information systems literature that have the potential for future research in this emerging area.Research limitations/implicationsThis SLR makes several theoretical contributions to the literature on Cloud ERP implementation and its impact on innovation outcomes.Practical implicationsThe review consolidates a wide range of literature to provide decision-makers with an integrated understanding of the most influential factors in Cloud ERP implementation.Originality/valueSLR provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state of research on the topic, offering unique perspectives on developments in theory and knowledge gaps, as well as identifying future research opportunities in the area.

PurposeIn the uncertain business environment, the supply chains are under pressure to balance routine operations and prepare for adverse events. Consequently, this research investigates how artificial intelligence is used to enable resilience among supply chains.Design/methodology/approachThis study first analyzed the relationship among different characteristics of AI-enabled supply chain and how these elements take it towards resilience by collecting the responses from 27 supply chain professionals. Furthermore, to validate the results, an empirical analysis is conducted where the responses from 231 supply chain professionals are collected.FindingsFindings indicate that the disruption impact of an event depends on the degree of transparency kept and provided to all supply chain partners. This is further validated through empirical study, where the impact of transparency facilitates the mass customization of the procurement strategy to Last Mile Delivery to reduce the impact of disruption. Hence, AI facilitates resilience in the supply chain.Originality/valueThis study adds to the domain of supply chain and information systems management by identifying the driving and dependent elements that AI facilitates and further validating the findings and structure of the elements through empirical analysis. The research also provides meaningful implications for theory and practice.

Purpose
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most progressive commodity among current information system applications. In-house development and sales of beneficial products are difficult for many software development and service companies (SDSCs). SDSCs have some implicit concerns about implementing AI software development due to the complexity of AI technology; they require an evaluation framework to avoid development failure. To fill the void, this study identified the factors influencing SDSCs when developing AI software development.
Design/methodology/approach
Based on complex adaptive systems theory, three aspects were developed as the main factors of hierarchy, namely, employees' capabilities, environmental resources and team capabilities. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) was used to assess the SDSCs' attitude. Based on SDSCs, attitudes toward implementing AI software projects were collected to calculate the hierarchy of factors.
Findings
The outcome of FAHP is used as understanding the key factors of SDSCs for selecting an AI software project, toward the improvement of overall project planning. Employees' stress resistance was considered as a priority for the project, although professional AI skills and resources were also important.
Originality/value
This study suggested three variables developed using complex adaptive systems. This study contributes to a better understanding of the critical aspects of developing AI software projects in SDSCs. The study's findings have practical and academic implications for SDSCs and subsequent academic development, broadening the scope of AI software development research.

PurposeSupply chain resilience (SCR) has attracted much attention in the context of the high uncertainty caused by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), local regional conflicts and natural disasters. Based on information processing theory (IPT), this study investigates the role of supply chain information processing capability in enhancing SCR through supply chain governance (SCG), under different conditions of environmental uncertainty.Design/methodology/approachThe hypothetical model is tested by using hierarchical regression on the primary samples collected from the Chinese manufacturing industry.FindingsThe results indicate that supply chain information processing capability has a significant positive effect on SCR. Also, SCG plays a mediating role between supply chain information processing capability and SCR. Furthermore, environmental uncertainty positively moderates the effect of supply chain information acquisition and supply chain information analysis on relational governance. However, environmental uncertainty only positively moderates the effect of supply chain information analysis on contractual governance.Originality/valueThis is the first study to explain the effect of information processing capability on SCR from the supply chain perspective, while also exploring the mediating role of SCG between SCR and supply chain information processing capacity, based on IPT.

Purpose
Grounded on the resource-based and dynamic capability views and the contingency theories, this study examines the direct and indirect effects of web technology training (WTT) and web-enabled transaction use (WTU) on business performance (BPE) through internal supply chain integration (ISCI) and supplier supply chain integration (SSCI).
Design/methodology/approach
Based on survey data collected from a sample of 175 respondents in the USA, the authors used structural equation modeling with AMOS 24.0 to test the measurement model for validity, reliability and the conceptual model for hypothesized structural relationships.
Findings
The results reveal that WTT significantly impacts WTU, which, in turn, has a significant direct relationship with BPE. Further, WTU indirectly affects BPE through SSCI. Additionally, ISCI has a significant direct effect on SSCI.
Practical implications
The findings support the relationship between WTT and BPE via WTU SCI. Managers are advised to develop ongoing capabilities in WTT to maximize the value of WTU to enhance the ISCI and SSCI operations, thus leading to improvements in BPE.
Originality/value
The research contributes to the supply chain literature by empirically demonstrating the usefulness of WTT in improving WTU use and BPE through effective ISCI and SSCI.
