“…Moreover, IoT and CPSs within logistics including embedded intelligence in products, cities and infrastructure such as vehicles and mobile equipment (Redelberger 2014) can influence logistics management by bringing about productivity and efficiency improvements (Qiu et al 2015;Macaulay, Buckalew and Chung 2015;Reinhart et al 2013;Schuh et al 2013). For instance, the embedded cyber-physical intelligence such as RFID tags and sensors can be applied in logistics management to enhance visibility through enabling monitoring and tracking capabilities (Hassan et al 2015;Chung 2015;Modrak and Moskvich 2012;Amini et al 2007). RFID technology can, particularly, enable real-time traceability and interoperability of resources, leading to improved planning and controlling (Hassan et al 2015;Qiu et al 2015: Zhang et al 2011).…”

“…This, in turn, can enhance inventory management by preventing costly out of stock situations and improving responsiveness and customer satisfaction (Quesada et al 2008). The informed inventory decision making, resulting from real-time visibility of inventory, can consequently lead to increased operational efficiency (Hassan et al 2015;Devaraj, Krajewski, and Wei 2007) and enhanced effectiveness.…”

Impact of Industry 4.0 on supply chain performanceConsidering the crucial role Information Technology (IT) plays in achieving performance improvements in business processes, this paper aims to explore the potential impact of the fourth industrial revolution -Industry 4.0 and its associated technological advances on Supply Chain (SC) performance. This study is exploratory research, conducted based on inductive reasoning, which aims to bring new insights into the topic, and to provide forward-thinking for future research.Hence, through conducting a systematic literature review, the paper attempts to explore the impact of Industry 4.0 on SC performance and to conceptualise and develop findings into an operational framework underpinned by Systems Theory.Based on this research, the application of Industry 4.0-enabling-technologies is expected to bring about significant performance improvements in SCM by enabling a holistic approach towards supply chain management resulting from extensive supply chain integration as well as information sharing and transparency throughout the supply chain. Moreover, these technologies allow for huge performance improvements within individual supply chain processes such as procurement, production, inventory management and retailing through enabling process integration, digitisation and automation, and bringing about novel analytical capabilities.

“…Perceived usefulness refers to " would enhance his or her job performance", and perceived ease of use refers to "the degree to which a person believes that using a particular system would be free of effort" (Davis,1989). Hassan, et al,(2015) examined why organizations applies technology in warehouse management. In their work, the authors identified factors as reliable measures to characterize attitudes towards warehouse service delivery.…”

Service quality can be seen as the gap as the between the expected service and the actual perceived service (Stefano, et al., 2015). Basically, the purpose of port of Mombasa is to create a satisfied customer. The creation of customer satisfaction can provide several benefits, such as the relationship between the organization and the customer becoming more harmonious, providing a good foundation for repeat purchases and the creation of customer loyalty, and generating word-of-mouth recommendations that are profitable for the organization (Nuridin, 2018).The vast majority of research into port service delivery has focused on efficiency, or 'doing things right'. While some research has looked at port service delivery in terms of effectiveness, in almost every case it is concerned with effectiveness in economic terms, such as the rate of profitability, the studies consider measures such as rate of port throughput, terminal performance, port congestion, availability of stevedore services, and so on that are deemed to influence effectiveness and logistics service delivery, (Dwarakish, & Salim, 2015).The trade in the global scene has been carried out for many centuries. The major instruments of accessing the trade routes and market have been pegged on the maritime transport. It is estimated that maritime transportation accounts up to 80% of the world's voluminous trade (Rhyne, et al., 2017). The rest of the transport takes place in rail, road and air transport. The linkage of the various continents has been through the sea transport due to its strategic points. The aspect of competition and need to being abreast in maritime transport has coerced various ports to have restructuring so as to meet the ISO qualification standards. Due to this rapid development, the ports in various countries are being transformed to have modern and specialized equipment to handle huge volume of cargo (Fardella, & Prodi, 2017).Ports have traditionally evaluated their performance by comparing their actual and optimum throughputs (measured in tonnage or number of containers handled). If a port's actual throughput approaches its optimum throughput over time, the conclusion is that its performance has improved over time. On the other hand, when the port registers poor performance such as high container dwell time, threat of Vessel delay surcharge and worst still is the big ships avoiding

“…Donaldson, 2001) of tailoring a configuration to the particular context is receiving increased attention in warehousing theory (cf. Hassan et al, 2015;Faber et al, 2018). Examples of the contextual factors that influence warehouse configuration decisions include the characteristics of stock keeping units (SKU), customer orders and demand (e.g.…”

PurposeRecent studies have highlighted the importance of adopting a contingency approach to configuring omnichannel warehouses. Nonetheless, research on how various contextual factors influence the selection of warehouse configuration is scarce. This study fills this knowledge gap by exploring how and why certain configurations fit in different omnichannel contexts.Design/methodology/approachA case study is conducted with six leading Swedish omnichannel retailers. Focusing on outbound warehouse configurations, data are collected through interviews, on-site observations, and secondary sources. A multistep analysis is made, including both pattern matching and explanation building.FindingsThe qualitative analysis reveals 16 contextual factors, of which assortment range, requested online order fulfillment times, goods size and total transactions are the most influential. The study shows how contextual factors create different challenges, thereby influencing the choice of the configurations. In addition to market dynamics and task complexity, the study describes four categories of the factors and related challenges that are particularly important in omnichannels: speed, space, economies of scale and tied-up capital.Research limitations/implicationsThe findings highlight the importance of understanding context and imply that multiple challenges may require trade-offs when selecting configurations, for example, regarding what storage, processes and resources to integrate or separate. To confirm, extend, challenge and further operationalize the ideas and observations put forward in this paper, an agenda with future research issues is given for this accelerating, contemporary phenomenon.Practical implicationsManagers could leverage the frameworks proposed for the contextual profiling of their current and future positions. The frameworks provide support for understanding the important challenges and potential trade-offs and developing aligned configurations.Originality/valueThis study is original in the way it provides in-depth, case study findings about contextual factors and their influence on omnichannel warehouse configuration.
