“…Therefore, the multidisciplinary approach on how to integrate and deal with SSSP concepts from the different angles of the respective disciplines is essential (Ralph et al, 2022;Zunk, 2018;Zunk & Sadei, 2015). Moreover, universities should provide opportunities to learn and develop problembased behavior in managerial planning and decision-making processes to connect theoretical concepts with practical applications (Ralph et al, 2021;Woschank et al, 2021a).…”

Industry 4.0 mainly focuses on the application of modern technologies (digitalization) and the changing role of human beings (digital transformation) in modern production and logistics systems. Besides the basic principles of digitalization, interconnectivity, and autonomization, the importance of human-centered decision-making processes, such as the selection of strategic suppliers, is also increasing, as complex, novel, and unstructured decisions cannot be fully computerized. In this context, there is still a lack of understanding of which formal patterns in the strategic supplier selection process will lead to better supplier performance. Until now, most of the literature emphasizes a minor number of process-related factors in the strategic supplier selection process leading to limited support for the individual decision-maker. This study introduces a cause-effect model that extends prior research by investigating the impact of process formality, as a comprehensive measurement construct of target-, information-, organization-, and heuristics-related process factors in the strategic supplier selection process on supplier performance and purchaser satisfaction. Based on the usage of variancebased structural equation modeling in a large-scale field study, a significant relationship between process formality and supplier performance as well as between process formality and purchaser satisfaction is substantiated.

“…This section covers the second challenge-based learning case study which presents a testing environment for the subsequent development of technical solutions within the MUL 4.0 learning factory. This factory respectively focuses on the application of Industry 4.0 technologies for the digitalization and the digital transformation of an entire value chain from raw materials to recycling [22]. As a problem-based challenge, students and practitioners are involved in the systematic development of (sub-) solutions for the implementation of digital twins from both a material science and a production and logistics point of view.…”

The successful implementation of Industry 4.0 technologies is dependent on a variety of complex endogenous and/or exogenous influencing factors. In this context, the realignment of contemporary teaching and learning methods is seen as a major prerequisite for the systematic development of human factors in modern and hyper-dynamic working environments. This paper focuses on the investigation of challenge-based learning as one of the most promising interactive methods for industrial engineering education. After reviewing current research on challenge-based learning, two exemplary challenges are presented in the form of a case study to serve as a foundation for the systematic development of transdisciplinary competences for the engineers and entrepreneurs of tomorrow.
