“…Based on the responses transcribed in Table 3, we can verify the risks that members of the supply chain are subject to as a result of external market problems, or internal problems of any of the members, which affect the supply chain as a whole. This risk-sharing characteristic should be known (Soni & Kodali, 2013) and internalized by member companies as a sine qua non feature in supply chain implementation and should not be underestimated.…”

“…From the theoretical point of view, inconsistent frameworks on supply chain management have been presented due to the incoherent use of elements or constructs in the development of these models. Thus, further studies on supply chain management should be led to a unified theory that contemplates coherent elements in these frameworks (Soni & Kodali, 2013).…”

The objective is to identify the determinants of the effectiveness of the supply chain (SC) operation and its management (SCM), from the viewpoint of its members or chain leaders. We conducted a descriptive research with the use of a questionnaire applied in the companies located in the city of São Marcos/RS (state of Rio Grande do Sul). The sample comprised a total of 42 respondent companies from a population of 67 industrial companies, resulting in 63% rate of return. We conducted a qualitative step with the supply manager of the only large company in the sample, and we concluded that there is a conservative culture in the industrial hub of the city of São Marcos/RS, and lack of confidence is their biggest barrier. When it comes to SCM, this is the main determinant and it must be worked on from the start so as not to hamper the development of the relationship with the partners as well as the implementation and success of the SC strategy. The research is restricted to the industrial supply chains of the city of São Marcos/RS for presenting a more organized SC structure. The originality of this study lies in the leading role of the manager, member or leader of the supply chain in sharing their perceptions on defining, beneficial and opposing aspects of the supply chain management and its operation. Originality also resides in the consonance between the literature and the research findings. The managers who were interviewed revealed that having more knowledge about the theme is a prerequisite to assess the effectiveness of the actions and performance of the supply chain. KEYWORDSSupply Chain, São Marcos Industrial Hub, Supply Chain Management, Determinants of SCM. RESUMOO objetivo é identificar os determinantes para o sucesso da operação de cadeia de suprimentos (CS) e seu gerenciamento (GCS), pela visão de seus membros ou líderes de cadeia. Foi conduzida uma pesquisa descritiva com a utilização de um questionário, aplicado nas empresas da cidade de São Marcos/RS. A amostra totalizou 42 empresas respondentes de uma população de 67 empresas industriais, resultando numa taxa de retorno de 63%. Uma etapa qualitativa foi conduzida com o gerente de suprimentos da única empresa de grande porte da amostra. Foi possível concluir que: o pólo industrial da cidade de São Marcos/RS possui uma cultura conservadora, onde a maior barreira é a falta de confiança. Ao se tratar de GCS, esse é o determinante principal que deve ser trabalhado inicialmente para não prejudicar o desenvolvimento do relacionamento com os parceiros, e consequentemente, a implantação e o sucesso da estratégia de CS. A pesquisa está restrita às cadeias de suprimentos industriais da cidade de São Marcos-RS por apresentarem uma estrutura de CS mais organizada. A originalidade do trabalho está no protagonismo do gestor da empresa, membro ou líder de cadeia, ao expor a sua percepção sobre aspectos definidores, benéficos e opositores do gerenciamento da cadeia de suprimentos e do seu funcionamento. A originalidade também reside na consonância, entre a literatura...

Supply chain management (SCM) has been stressed as a remedy to many of the underlying issues in the construction industry. However, the positive examples where SCM has been successfully utilised and diminished the lingering issues in construction is scarce. The question is why. Previous studies have stressed the importance of planning both the construction project as such but also the supply chain and the logistics. As an important part of SCM, supply chain planning (SCP) focuses on planning different aspects of the supply chain through involving different members of the supply chain in the planning process. SCP in construction is scarce as the planning of the logistics in general. Failing to plan the supply chain, involving supply chain members in the planning, and integrating the processes of planning the supply chains and the construction project can be one reason for the low numbers of successful SCM adoption in construction. In improving the SCP in construction, this thesis develops a SCP framework for construction that involves the main contractor, subcontractors, and suppliers. The aim is to improve SCP, collaboration, and eliminate many of the common problems in construction through a SCM and SCP perspective.The developed framework is based on an existing planning framework for sales and operations planning. This framework is generic and synthesises planning in general. It consists of identifying/developing: outcomes, input, organisation, process, key performance measurements, and IT-tools. It is thus necessary to investigate what these aspects means in a construction context. Four research objects will be fulfilled: The first objective will aid in focusing the work with developing the framework as one aim of the framework is to aid in eliminating common logistical problems. In doing so it is needed to identify what problems exist and how the SCP framework can aid in overcoming them. The second and third objective focus on developing the framework in terms of developing a planning process (procedure) and an organisation for developing the plans. These two also includes identifying outcomes of SCP and important inputs. The final objective focus on suggesting important performance measurements for aiding in the planning process.Several different studies have aid in fulfilling the objectives and the purpose. A case study, literature review, and a series of interviews aided in fulfilling objective 1. The interview series and focus groups were used for fulfilling objectives 2 and 3. Objective 4 used the results from the case study. Through logical reasoning and compiling the previous works made it possible to finalise and develop the framework.Findings indicate that common logistical problems can be categorised as: material flow issues, internal company communication, project communication, and complexity. The first one contains problems with e.g. delivery reliability, material flows, and inventories. Company communication regards problems with e.g. sharing information internally, not updating plans, ...

“…Anand and Kodali (2009) have reported that the organization management uses the framework as a guiding torch to the managers to implement various elements and also to define the relationship between elements to achieve organizational objectives. Recently, Soni and Kodali (2011) have reviewed the literature to identify supply chain management framework. According to them, the framework should contain the following characteristics:…”

SummaryPurpose -The purpose of the article is to identify suitable existing lean product development (LPD) framework that is useful to implement in Indian manufacturing industry. The number of successful products is one of the most deciding factors in any organization revenue. Lean principles can be applied across product development processes to eliminate waste activities. Thus, to fulfill the objective, the present study has performed validity and reliability analysis on the existing LPD frameworks with the help of empirical data collected from Indian manufacturing sector through a survey questionnaire methodology. Design/methodology/approach -The empirical data was collected from 180 manufacturing organizations from Indian manufacturing sector. The study has gathered the empirical data from respondents from top and middle level personnel. Factor analysis was conducted on the collected empirical data to find the unidimensionality of the each framework. Reliability of each individual framework was determined through Cronbach's alpha value. Finally, the frequency distribution analysis was performed to find familiar constructs in the selected frameworks sorted on the basis of validity and reliability analysis. Findings -The present study found that only eight LPD frameworks have displayed unidimensionality with respect to the construct, i.e. the LPD it measures. The study also found that those eight frameworks have displayed a high level of reliability. Further, the study tried to find the most familiar constructs from the selected eight frameworks by applying frequency distribution analysis. The frequency distribution analysis has identified that most of the constructs have showed a high value in terms of mode and mean. The study also concluded that there is a need to develop a new LPD framework, which is suitable to fulfill the requirements of Indian manufacturing industry, as well as global manufacturing industry. Research limitations/implications -The study collected empirical data from 180 organizations and all of the respondents were restricted from Indian manufacturing industry. Hence, the study believes that there is a chance some more amplification before being generalizes ov...
