“…Rathore et al ( 2021) identified 15 associated safety risk factors using FDM to achieve a safe working environment in the healthcare system [158]. In sustainable supply chain management, Chen et al ( 2021) identified nine key risk factors using FDM as determinants of the case firm's improvement measures [159]. This study adopted an FDM to screen key SSCRs and agility criteria.…”

As the global economy develops and the complexity of supply chains increases, the effective mitigation of sustainable supply chain risks in electronics manufacturing has become important. While quality function deployment (QFD) has been successfully applied to many fields of multicriteria decision-making (MCDM), there is a lack of research on constructing a house-of-quality model that can be combined with MCDM for connecting supply chain agility with sustainable supply chain risks, especially in the field of electronics manufacturing. The objective of this study was to develop an integrated framework of QFD and MCDM and to devise an effective method to mitigate sustainable supply chain risks by improving supply chain agility. Such a method can help the multinational electronics manufacturing industry to develop stable and sustainable supply chains. In a multinational electronic manufacturing enterprise as an example, the results showed that the case enterprise work should focus on improving agility ‘production and sales capability’, ‘quick decision-making/strategic flexibility’, ‘electronic shiapment of finished products to control shipment operations’, ‘supplier on-time delivery rates’ and ‘cost minimization’. Improving agility would help enhance the ‘credibility and competence of operators and leaders’ and ‘product safety and quality’ and reduce ‘goods disruption or delay due to inadequate supply mobility and poor financial performance’, ‘information system instability’, the ‘long product lead time’ and other key sustainable supply chain risks. The proposed framework can not only be effectively used by other electronics manufacturers to develop agile strategies to mitigate sustainable supply chain risks, but also provides a reference for risk management for manufacturers in other fields.

“…The research used qualitative information in the form of expert opinion and converting it into numerical form, shortlisting 25 essential factors out of 58. Another research evaluated risks in telecommunication industry of India, identifying most important risks via literature review and FDM, whereas Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM) was used in combination with FDM to analysis the interrelationship among critical risks [ 102 ]. FDM has also been used in the construction industry perspective, a study highlighted major risks arising on construction sites using FDM in combination with DEMATEL to examine cause and effect of risk factors [ 103 ].…”

Evaluation of critical risk factors in the implementation of modular construction

Modular construction is considered as a preferred construction method over conventional construction due to a number of benefits including reduction in project completion time, improved environmental performance, better quality, enhanced workers’ safety and flexibility. However, successful implementation of modular construction is hindered by various risk factors and uncertainties. Therefore, it is imperative to perform a comprehensive risk assessment of critical risk factors that pose a negative impact on the implementation of modular construction. Moreover, there is also a relatively less rate of modular construction adoption in developing countries, highlighting the need to focus more on underdeveloped regions. This study aims to propose a risk assessment framework for identification, evaluation and prioritization of critical risk factors affecting the implementation of modular construction in Pakistan. 20 risk factors were identified from previous literature which were then evaluated to shortlist the most significant risks using Fuzzy Delphi. The most significant risk factors were then prioritized using a novel Full-Consistency Method (FUCOM). The results specified ‘Inadequate skills and experience in modular construction’, ‘Inadequate capacity of modular manufacturers’ and ‘Inability to make changes in design during the construction stage’ as top three critical risks in the implementation of modular construction. This is the first study to propose a risk assessment framework for modular construction in Pakistan. The results of the study are useful to provide insights to construction industry practitioners in highlighting and eliminating risks involved in modular construction planning and execution.

To boost overall performance and obtain a competitive advantage in the rising market, industries have been urged to adopt sustainable practices in their supply chain operations by creative market, government laws, and growing awareness [9]. Figure 1 indicates the three spheres of sustainability.…”

The article describes the challenges and success factors of implementing sustainability in the Bangladeshi textile industry. The main purpose was to identify the barriers and change them to success to maintain a satisfactory and pleasant environment in the industry. Implementing and ensuring sustainability in the Bangladeshi textile industry is a priority. The barriers and success factors of sustainability in Bangladeshi textile industry through a survey based was evaluated. The survey was carried out through questionnaires of managers in the Bangladeshi textile industry. The test was carried out at the producer level of the industry based on the three pillars of sustainability (social, economic, and environmental). The 5-point Likert scale was used to receive the responses. We surveyed a total of 26 people from 7 different factories. SPSS software was used to analyse the surveyed data and quantify the barriers and success factors of sustainability. Data were statistically analysed using reliability tests, multiple regression analysis, ANOVA, coefficients, regression equation development, and Pearson's correlation. The analysis illustrated the socio-environmental aspect as the most important predictor, while the environmental-economic and economic-social aspects were the least important to the managers of the Bangladeshi textile industry. The performance of any industry depends on the management and their way of handling situations. Our research goal was to find out the challenges that the management faces and what could be possible solutions for these challenges. The article shows the ways of finding out the existing barriers to sustainability by conducting a survey of the textile industry and the possible solutions to these barriers to ensure a better work environment. The article also shows how to keep the industry performance updated, improved, and satisfactory. The report would be beneficial to the Bangladesh textile industry administration to identify industry barriers to implementing sustainability and changing it to success.
