“…The data can then be analyzed to generate the information necessary to make decisions that lead to improved environmental sustainability throughout the supply chain. Information sharing, through the use of green information systems, is a key enabler for supply chain management in terms of integration and coordination (Chandra et al, 2007).…”

AbstractPurpose -The purpose of this paper is to contribute significantly to the first wave of empirical investigations related to the impact of green supply chain management practices on environmental and organizational performance from a manufacturer's perspective within a supply chain context. Design/methodology/approach -An environmental collaboration and monitoring performance model is theorized and assessed following a structural equation methodology. Data were collected from 159 manufacturing managers through an on-line survey. Findings -Environmental collaboration and monitoring practices among supply chain partners are found to lead to improved environmental performance and organizational performance. Research limitations/implications -As a first wave investigation of the impact of green supply chain management practices on performance, the study is somewhat exploratory. Practical implications -Practitioners are provided with a framework for assessing the impact of environmental collaboration and monitoring practices among supply chain partners on environmental performance and organizational performance. The study provides evidence that green supply chain practices lead to improved environmental and organizational performance. Social implications -The results also have important societal implications. While green supply chain management practices enhance the economic sustainability of the firm, they also positively impact society through improvements to the overall environment. Originality/value -The results of this investigation support the proposition that implementation of environmental collaboration and monitoring practices by supply chain partners are both environmentally necessary and good business. The paper provides manufacturing managers with a structured approach to improving both environmental and organizational performance through environmental collaboration and monitoring with customers and suppliers.

“…-clients now understand that information on workflow of orders, product availability, delivery deadlines (Li 2002), payment deadlines of the future invoices are a very important part of high quality services; -managers who aspire the reduction of stocks in all logistics chain have understood that information exchange significantly reduces the demand of material and human resources; -information increases flexibility and speed of decisions related to the use of resources (Chan, H. K., Chan, F. T. S. 2009;Chandra et al 2007). Information flows within a logistics system, as well as between it and external sources creates Logistics IS (LIS).…”

With the acceleration of globalization processes and increased international cooperation, freight transport routes are expanding, which requires new solutions for the most efficient use of various modes of transport. One of the most important factors that may improve the efficiency of the interoperability of different transport modes is information exchange allowing to plan transport flows in advance, exploiting benefits of the maritime and rail transport and minimizing its disadvantages. Precise information allows to find the most efficient mode of transport for the freight transportation chain. Precise information is necessary for effective management of information flows to ensure interoperability between the transport modes. This article analyses the specificity of railway and maritime transport modes, hence research questionnaire of Lithuanian transport companies is performed to present the results to show the most significant elements of railway and maritime transport interoperability. The completed expert evaluation enabled to prioritize the sequence of elements to ensure the efficient interoperability between rail and maritime transport.

“…According to the literature, in an integrated supply chain, the information is the key element that firms have to share with their partners [Ragatz et al, 2002]. Within the supply chain, the typical information shared is related with material requirements, demand forecasts and inventory levels (Chandra et al, 2007, Omar et al, 2010, Datta and Christopher, 2011, Hung et al,2011. To ensure the effectiveness of long-term collaborations and to generate trust among partners, these information exchanges should be held within processes with high level of visibility, which should desirably enable effective communications and exchange of real-time data [Chengalur-Smith et al, 2012].…”

This thesis aims at contributing with new research at the intersection of the research fields of information management and supply chain risk management. Information is a fundamental element for an effective risk management in supply networks. In spite of this, research on how to use internal and external information for risk management decisions in supply networks is scarce. Therefore, this thesis main goal is to characterize information models used in supply networks and the supply chain risk management process in order to propose an aggregated model of internal and external information for risk management decision support in supply networks. This work is based on the Design Science paradigm, which will be applied through several research methods: systematic literature review to analyse the current state of the art on information management in supply networks; field research to analyse the influence of different information organisation models in the process of supply chain risk management and to develop an information model based (artifact); and action research to implement the artifact for the definition of risk mitigation strategies in aeronautic supply networks.
