  • Coordinating new product development and supply chain management
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Value Chain Management. - : InderScience Publishers. - 1741-5357 .- 1741-5365. ; 4:1/2, s. 170-192

    • Effective implementation of the new product development (NPD) process not only enables management to coordinate the efficient flow of new products, but will also assist to support ramp-up of various supply chain activities and other related activities supporting the commercialisation of the product. Thus, companies need to address all these issues in parallel to be successful and this requires some kind of integrative product development approach. The purpose of this research is to increase the understanding of how NPD is connected to supply chain management (SCM) by investigating how the NPD process is structured and executed in two international manufacturing companies seeking to realise an innovative, predictable and efficient product development. Several essential linkages between NPD and SCM have been derived from case study findings concerning important issues for successful product development.

  • Significant Value-added attributes in Port Supply Chain Systems
  • 2009
  • Ingår i: 14th Int. Symposium on Logistics (14thISL) 09, 5-7. July, Istanbul, Turkey.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Purpose – The theme of this study is to identify relevant value-added attributes in port supplychain systems, specifying significant value-added attributes disclosed from different domainperspectives.Design/methodology/approach – To prepare this paper, literature sourcing to identify relevantvalue-added attributes formed the foundation of this research work. On this basis, the Delphitechnique was implemented to rank the identified value-added attributes from experts‘ opinions,and more importantly, to categorize the large number of these attributes in order to makeavailable use of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). This was followed by pair-wisecomparison to determine the significant value-added attributes from the port key managerperspective. The data collected for pair-wise comparison is conducted through semi-structureinterviews in order to explain the presumed methodology and to eliminate potential bias.Finding – The result from the cross-domain synthesis shows that "information communicationvalue" is the most valuable attribute revealed by both Delphi experts and the port decisionmaker, among other main constructs of attributes. Other important agreements among expertsand port key management indicate that "access to distribution network," "logistics andtransport integral facility" and "reliable custom clearance services" are the most rewardingvalue-added attributes among others in the same category. The study presents a framework forcategorization of the identified value-added attributes and proposes a model for ranking andprioritization purposes.Practical implications – The study identifies and categorizes the value-added attributes relatedto the port supply chain systems. The applied methodology might enhance port key managementto discover the most rewarding value-added attributes and value relevance as a source ofcompetitive advantage.Originality/value – This paper combines both literature analysis and interviews of both expertsand decision makers, which offers an integrated model for ranking and prioritization purposes. Itis assumed to add value to the port logistics and supply chain literature by identifying andcategorizing an important set of value-added attributes. The study attempts to compromisedifferent methods in order to reveal various respondents‘ perspectives.Keywords – Competitive advantages; Decision making; Logistics; Port; Supply chain systemsPaper Type – Research paper

  • Smart freight to enhance efficient and sustainable distribution
  • 2008

  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Information systems are mostly based on a centralized concept creating situations in the supply chain associated with a number of vertical transactions to the central information system. A major problem is linking the product information to complex supply chain activities. A solution for improving the management of items is to decentralize the information of individual products and access the relevant information directly from a carry-on information tag based on identification technologies (e.g. RFID). Distributing data needed along the goods flow in a supply chain, opens up for local decision making. In the decentralized system each system interaction point is attached to logic needed in order to handle the goods at that point. In order to make this scenario possible the goods must operate in communication with other intelligent parts and intelligent infrastructure. The goods also need to be able to interact with the appropriate resources performing value adding. In order to perform such decisions all relevant transactional intelligence needs to be brought down all the way to the execution level. In this project we identify, outline and create solutions that make goods and consignments in a perceived way smart. The technical solutions for connectivity between goods are created from a logistics point of view. In this context smart means an IT and transportation environment where local decision making for supply chains is enabled.

  • Sustainability via Short Sea Shuttle Concept
  • 2014
  • Ingår i: 14th Annual International Business Conference on Sustainability Globalization and Business Education, feb 21-22, 2014, Jacksonville, Florida.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Efficient short sea shipping is vital for trade and industry in Northern Europe. About 90% of the volume of goods exported or imported to Sweden is transported by ships in at least one part of the transport chain. It is therefore important to find cost-effective solutions for shipping in order to improve the global availability of goods in Northern Europe and to reduce the environmental impact caused by the transport industry. The purpose of this paper is to develop a container shipping concept – the Short Sea Shuttle Concept. The concept involves transportation of containers between a number of ports and a hub port with functional inland connections, fixed schedules, and high reliability and departure frequency. High punctuality is an essential factor for the shuttles, as it allows a transfer of more time-sensitive cargo to sea, which currently is transported by other modes.

  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The purpose of this paper is to use the conceptual model of the Smart TransportationManagement (STM) system and analyze how the included factors change the performance ofdistribution activities and what management issues are at stake.To prepare the paper, a literature study was made and casestudies carried out in companies and organizations that are included in advanced transportation setups,including infrastructure providers, carriers, truck manufacturers, software providers, shippers, and more.The main finding of the study is a model that includes three major components of smarttransportation management, namely, smart goods, smart vehicles and smart infrastructure. Thesecomponents embrace some factors that have effects on supply chain performance; however, todifferent extents.The paper uses a framework for the smart transportationmanagement system that is useful when studying advanced transportation management systems, thefunctions that need to be supported and what factors have effects on supply chain performance.Practical implications – Practical implications are mainly based on the structure of the smarttransportation system that is used and the identified factors that affect the performance of the supplychain, as these factors can be influenced by logistics management.The framework used in this research is a new development that collects advanced functions of goods identification, vehicle information systems and infrastructure systemsinto one conceptual model for smart

  • Foliated Transportation Networks
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: Proceeding of the Logistics Research Network conference 2006.
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • By using current information technology to identify the goods and thereafter redesign the transportation network, combining distribution strategies, possibilities for efficient transportation of goods arise. This paper describes and analyses a mixed transportation concept, the foliated transportation network, and the possibilities and restrictions that apply. The first part of the paper describes the theoretical background and previous research. The second part is a case study of a European transportation company, analysing the possibilities that arise from using a mixed transportation strategy and how this will affect the operations and outcomes of the activities of the company. The purpose of foliated transport systems is to efficiently handle goods in a distribution system in order to maintain high customer service at the same time as the movement of goods is made more efficient. Identification technologies and sharing of information are key components of the strategy. In the paper we argue that by integrating and using the characteristics of the goods as an active parameter in the goods-handling processes, transportation can indeed be made more efficient while maintaining customer service.
