“…Xu (2011) stressed that the supply chain QM is experiencing difficulties in maintaining quality due to the shortage of correct and required information. Correspondingly, the RLSC of DW is also not benefited by proper information flow, and this has become the persuasive root cause for quality issues in reprocessed products (Cheng and Ma, 2013, Chileshe et al, 2019; Debacker et al, 2017; Xia and Bakker, 2014), as shown in Figure 3. Therefore, these findings provide support for the validity that an information-centric system of process, people, policy and technology is required for QA in RLSC of DW.…”

“…It helps to segregate hazardous and contaminated waste on-site before they contaminate other waste (Williams et al, 2014). Therefore, on-site sorting helps to separate non-contaminated salvageable materials before reprocessing (Chileshe et al, 2019). Several moveable containers should be positioned at different on-site locations from the beginning of dismantling to support on-site sorting (Tischer et al, 2013).…”

The reverse logistics supply chain (RLSC) facilitates the greening of the traditional construction industry supply chain. Despite the growing interest in this approach, limited studies focus on quality assurance (QA) in RLSC, which is crucial to resolve the issue of the low quality in reprocessed products. This study aims to explore the elements which contribute to the QA of RLSC of demolition waste (DW) by conducting a systematic literature review (SLR). A total of 91 articles available in six search engines between 2000 and 2019 were exposed to descriptive and content analysis. The descriptive analysis revealed that most of the articles were experimental studies (35%) and published during the recent period of 2013–2019 (64%). Furthermore, 60% of articles were originated from developed countries while 32% originated from developing countries. The results of the content analysis established that an information-centric integrated system of process, people, policy and technology is needed for QA in RLSC, which is supported by government, regulatory bodies, industry and universities/research institutions. The study addresses the existing gap by proposing a conceptual framework, which could be considered as the foundation in enforcing QA in the RLSC of DW. Finally, the implications for research and practice and some recommendations for further research were presented. The study facilitates in paving the path to sustainable development through building the foundation to enforce QA in RSLC of DW.

“…The reverse logistics is based on all the logistic activities required to transform used products into reusable products [79]. Being products classified according to the remaining useful life and their status, the information to be gathered on the product side are product condition [80], product lifecycle stage, product design, inventory of returned products, product perishability, product complexity and hazardous material composition [81]. Moreover, considering the uncertainties regarding the returned products, there should be the necessity to gather data regarding time, quality, quantity, and types of returned products, to then develop a plan and decide whether to recondition, reuse or sell the returned product in a secondary market [49].…”

A Systematic Literature Review on Data and Information Required for Circular Manufacturing Strategies Adoption

et al. 2021

In the extant literature, circular economy (CE) is considered a driver for sustainable development of the manufacturing sector, being it an industrial paradigm aiming at regenerating resources. CE is transferred to manufacturing companies through the adoption of different Circular Manufacturing (CM) strategies (e.g., recycling, remanufacturing, etc.). Nowadays, manufacturers are struggling to implement these strategies to limit their resource consumption and pollution generation. To enable their adoption, the extant literature unveiled the importance to control along the entire value chain different types of resource flows (i.e., material, energy, and information). Nevertheless, while for material and energy management some advancements were achieved, information management and sharing remains one of the major barriers in adopting these strategies. The present work, through a systematic literature review, aims to identify the relevant information and data required to support the manufacturer’s decision process in adopting and managing the different CM strategies to pursue the transition towards CM. Furthermore, based on the results obtained, this research proposes a theoretical framework. It elucidates the four main areas to be managed by manufacturers in adopting CM strategies and it provides to the manufacturer an overview of what should be updated and upgraded inside the company to embrace CM strategies.

The AEC industry has been facing a digital transformation for improving services involved in buildings lifecycle, fostered by two disruptive technologies: Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Internet of Things (IoT). However, the literature lacks discussions regarding applications and challenges of BIM and IoT systems in the AEC. This Systematic Literature Mapping addresses this gap through search, analysis, and classification of 75 journal article abstracts published between 2015 and 2019. An increase of articles over the period is observed, predominantly with technical and processual solutions for Construction and Operation and Maintenance. The interoperability of data is a key challenge to organizations.
