“…Similar to other recent reviews in the field of SC management (e.g. Machado et al ., 2020; Pournader et al ., 2020; Wijewickrama et al , 2020), we searched for relevant literature in Scopus, Web of Science, ProQuest and Ebsco Databases using the following keywords in the title, abstract or keywords: “healthcare supply chain” OR “health-care supply chain” OR “health care supply chain” OR “pharmaceuticals supply chain” OR “medicine supply chain” OR “telehealth supply chain” OR “telehealth care supply chain” OR “telemedicine supply chain” OR “hospital supply chain” OR “medical supply chain”. This initial search process was limited to peer-reviewed articles and reviews published in English and resulted in 1,547 articles.…”

PurposeInventory management systems in health-care supply chains (HCSC) have been pushed to breaking point by the COVID-19 pandemic. Unanticipated demand shocks due to stockpiling of medical supplies caused stockouts, and the stockouts triggered systematic supply chain (SC) disruptions inconceivable for risk managers working individually with limited information about the pandemic. The purpose of this paper is to respond to calls from the United Nations (UN) and World Health Organization (WHO) for coordinated global action by proposing a research agenda based on a review of current knowledge and knowledge gaps on the role of collaboration in HCSCs in maintaining optimal stock levels and reinforcing resilience against stockout disruptions during pandemics.Design/methodology/approachA systematic review was conducted, and a total of 752 articles were analyzed.FindingsCollaborative planning, forecasting and replenishment practices are under-researched in the HCSC literature. Similarly, a fragmented application of extant SC collaborative risk management capabilities undermines efforts to enhance resilience against systematic disruptions from medical stockouts. The paucity of HCSC articles in humanitarian logistics and SC journals indicates a need for more research interlinking two interdependent yet critical fields in responding to pandemics.Research limitations/implicationsAlthough based on an exhaustive search of academic articles addressing HCSCs, there is a possibility of having overlooked other studies due to search variations in language controls, differences in publication cycle time and database search engines.Originality/valueThe paper relies on COVID-19's uniqueness to highlight the limitations in optimization and individualistic approaches to managing medical inventory and stockout risks in HCSCs. The paper proposes a shift from a fragmented to holistic application of relevant collaboration practices and capabilities to enhance the resilience of HCSCs against stockout ripple effects during future pandemics. The study propositions and suggestion for an SC learning curve provide an interdisciplinary research agenda to trigger early preparation of a coordinated HCSC and humanitarian logistics response to future pandemics.

“…Likewise, technologies support the real-time decisions of logistics processes by transforming the data collected in the supply chain into effective and efficient supply chain decisions (Villalobos et al, 2019), in turn providing the technological infrastructure required by Industry 4.0 to support complex virtual and physical systems (da Silva et al, 2019). Other benefits of technologies in the logistics supply chain include decision-making support; the facilitation of information exchange and real-time management for supply chain execution (Perego et al, 2011); the provision of accurate and sufficient information at the right time in the right format to the right person (Wijewickrama et al, 2021); an increase in cross channel visibility and incentives; the analysis of tradeoffs; and complexity optimization, among others (Gunasekaran et al, 2017).…”

“…Several reviews related to technologies and logistics can be found in the literature. Some of them are focused on specific topics such as freight transportation (Perego et al, 2011); the contribution of information technology (IT) to competitive advantage within logistics and supply chains (Gunasekaran et al, 2017); technology development to support the real-time decisions of fresh food logistics (Villalobos et al, 2019); the potential, influence, and status of research on blockchain technology in logistics and supply chain management (Gurtu and Johny, 2019;Wang et al, 2019;Musigmann et al, 2020;Paliwal et al, 2020); technology transfer in the supply chain oriented to Industry 4.0 (da Silva et al, 2019); the relationships between information and digital technologies of Industry 4.0 and lean supply chain management (Núñez-Merino et al, 2020); information sharing in reverse logistics supply chains (Wijewickrama et al, 2021); trends toward new technologies in logistics (Lagorio et al, 2020); and IT adoption and its role in supply chain management (Sorooshian and Teck, 2020).…”

The supply chain has become a key element of increasing the productivity and competitiveness of companies. To achieve this, it is essential to implement a strategy based on the use of technologies, which depends on knowledge of the scope and impact of logistics technologies. Therefore, this article aims to identify the main technologies supporting logistics management and supply chain processes to establish their functionality, scope, and impacts. For this, conventional technologies and technologies framed by the concept of Industry 4.0 that allow the implementation of Logistics 4.0 in companies are analyzed. As a result of searching databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, and Science Direct, we provide an analysis of 18 technologies focusing on their definition, scope, and the logistics processes involved. This study concludes that technologies in logistics management allow for a reduction in total costs, improve collaboration with suppliers and customers, increase the visibility and traceability of products and information, and support decision-making for all agents in the supply chain, including the final consumer.

“…The practice is nevertheless subject to several challenges. Recent reviews conceptualised those challenges as information deficiencies and showed that timely and accurate information is vital for the effectiveness of deconstruction (Jayasinghe et al 2019, Wijewickrama et al 2021. Deconstruction projects are characterised by uncertainties stemming from the building, workflow and environment, all of which a demolition contractor needs to cope with (Van Den Berg et al 2020a).…”

Despite that Building Information Modelling (BIM) is often praised as a whole life-cycle methodology, possibilities for deconstruction are consistently overlooked. This study demonstrates what those possibilities may be. Previous studies showed that: deconstruction practices pose several site-based challenges; BIM implementations may help practitioners to address such challenges; and activity theory offers a framework to understand BIM implementations. We aimed to explore how deconstruction practices can be reorganised with BIM by applying an activity-theoretical perspective to a rather unique case-study. The selected case concerned the deconstruction of a nursing home so that many of its elements could be reused to construct a school. During this project, we implemented BIM in three essential activities: analysing existing conditions, labelling of reusable elements and planning deconstruction. The implementations resolved initial problems related with the use of traditional drawings, schedules and instructions. They nevertheless also triggered several additional problems that we attempted to address in successive steps. The organisation of the activities so evolved, which culminated in the formation of three new BIM uses for deconstruction: "3D existing conditions analysis," "reusable elements labelling" and "4D deconstruction simulation". These concepts complement existing BIM use taxonomies and can be appropriated in future deconstruction projects.
