Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Previous research indicates a great potential within process industries regarding the use, distribution, and supply of energy, affecting manufacturing costs and revenues. The purpose of this study is thus to analyze, and to provide suggestions for improvements for, energy management in a process industry company. This will be done by mapping the energy flow and usage for a case company. The results of this study indicate that a strategic perspective on energy issues is necessary in order to reach the full potential of energy savings and for establishing an effective energy management system.

Third-party logistics in construction : Perspectives from suppliers and transport providers
- 2015
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 22nd EurOMA Conference.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Suppliers and transport providers are key parties in the construction supply chain, and their respective roles when employing third-party logistics (3PL) is investigated. The purpose is to analyze how they are affected by the 3PL solution in terms of their attitudes towards the use of 3PL, the experienced defects from the 3PL solution, and their level of supply chain management (SCM) maturity. This is done by a literature review and an explorative case study at a large construction project employing a 3PL solution. Results show a positive attitude and that they actively address SCM issues, whereas actual effects are inconclusive.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The construction supply chain is of temporary nature and complex, with many interactions between multiple actors in different construction projects. This challenging context typically leads to relatively higher costs and lower productivity, compared to other industries. Supply chain management (SCM) has been put forward as a mean to better handle this challenging context. As a part of SCM initiatives some construction industry stakeholders have turned to third-party logistics (TPL) providers, especially in large construction projects. The use of TPL providers is a new, and under-investigated, phenomenon in the construction industry. The main purpose of this study is thus to explore the use of a TPL provider in a large construction project and to analyse its resulting effects. Driving forces and possible concerns for implementing TPL are identified and the possibility for TPL to be a facilitator for implementing SCM in construction is investigated. The research is based on a literature review and an explorative case study of a large hospital project in Sweden, where the client and the main contractor have initiated the use of a TPL provider to coordinate sourcing and materials handling activities on site. The results show positive effects on establishing an effective interface between the construction site and the supply chain. The results also show that a TPL solution facilitates an increase in productive work at the construction site itself, a reduction of costs and an increased utilisation of site assets. On the downside, the study also shows a lack of SCM knowledge amongst the involved actors in the project, hindering them to reap the full potential of TPL.

Third-party logistics in large construction projects : A SCM perspective

Ingår i: Proceedings of the 21st EurOMA Conference.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this paper is to investigate the use of 3PL providers in large construction projects, and to identify main drivers and barriers, as well as the resulting effects, when implementing SCM by the use of 3PL providers. This is done by the means of a literature review and an explorative case study, the latter being a large hospital construction project. The results show positive performance effects in terms of increased productivity, resources utilization, and delivery performance, but also that there are challenges when it comes to organizational setting, policy adherence and supply chain coordination.
