- Although Industry 4.0 was believed to promote sustainable development, it has ignored or misunderstood many prevailing sustainability concerns, which led to the emergence of the Industry 5.0 agenda. While the desirable sustainability values of Industry 5.0 are widely acknowledged, the knowledge of how this agenda can deliver sustainable transformation is lacking. The present study addresses this knowledge gap, explaining how Industry 5.0 transformation should be managed to facilitate sustainable development. Therefore, this study strives to model the underlying mechanism for enabling such transformation. The study conducted a content-centric review of the literature and identified 11 actions and approaches that serve as enablers of Industry 5.0 transformation. The study further conducted the interpretive structural modeling and structured the enablers as an interpretive model explaining steps needed for enabling Industry 5.0. Finally, the study developed the strategy roadmap for enabling Industry 5.0 transformation and sustainable development. Results emphasized stakeholder salience, highlighting the enabling role of stakeholder integration and collaboration in Industry 5.0 transformation. Proactive governmental support is the most driving enabler of Industry 5.0, whereas eco-innovation and sustainable value network reformation are among the most complex and hard-to-develop enablers. Results offer several implications for policymakers and practitioners, explaining the functionality of each approach and strategy necessary for Industry 5.0 transformation. The roadmap determines the sequential relationships among these approaches and strategies and identifies their optimal development sequence for enabling Industry 5.0 transformation synergistically. Results further identify the codependences among the Industry 5.0 transition enablers and highlight their interactions and complementarities.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Globalization, market turbulence, and global crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic push the manufacturing industry to rush towards automation, data-centricity, and greater interconnectivity under the ongoing digital industrial transformation known as Industry 4.0. Smaller manufactures worldwide strive to keep up with the digitalization race and secure sustainable competitiveness. Fierce competition and market turbulence force Middle Eastern manufacturers to make the most of the digitalization race. The present study reports on the Industry 4.0 digital transformation and development of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises in Iran, one of the most economically influential countries within the Middle East. Smaller manufacturers in Iran consider Industry 4.0 to improve productivity, operate in the data-driven economy, and increase business resilience. Although the implementation rate of generic digital technologies has been somewhat promising among Iranian manufacturers, the present report identifies significant barriers slowing the implementation rate of more advanced Industry 4.0 technologies such as predictive analytics and blockchain technology. Overall, Industry 4.0 transformation has provided Iranian manufacturing enterprises with meaningful opportunities and benefits. Nonetheless, smaller manufacturers cannot generally develop an all-inclusive strategic plan for navigating digitalization efforts. This issue, along with many other barriers such as resource scarcity, digitalization immaturity, and cybersecurity risks, has slowed down the digital transformation of the Iranian manufacturing industry.

The impact of Industry 4.0 on bottleneck analysis in production and manufacturing : Current trends and future perspectives
- 2022

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Bottleneck analysis, known as one of the essential lean manufacturing concepts, has been extensively researched in the literature. Recently, there has been a move towards using new Industry 4.0-based concepts and technologies in the development of bottleneck analysis. However, the interrelations between bottleneck analysis and Industry 4.0 have not been studied thoroughly. The present study addresses this gap and performs a systematic literature review on articles available in major scientific databases (i.e., Web of Science and Scopus) to investigate the impact of Industry 4.0 on the advancement of bottleneck analysis in production and manufacturing. Bibliometric analysis and content review were performed to extract the quantitative and qualitative data. Results revealed that only five out of 15 design principles and five out of eleven technologies of Industry 4.0 were addressed previously in developing bottleneck analysis methods. In addition to highlighting the existing gaps in the literature and proposing topics for future research, several potential development streams are proposed by studying the design principles and technologies of Industry 4.0, which have not been considered in bottleneck analysis before.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Industry 4.0 has been associated with the rise of disruptive intelligence and informationtechnologies. These cutting-edge technologies have the potential to increase productivity whilesimultaneously having a significant impact on social and environmental sustainability. As a result,manufacturers must evaluate the role of these innovative technologies in sustainable development,as these technologies have the potential to address prevalent sustainability issues. A content-centricstudy of the implementation of these Industry 4.0 cutting-edge technologies in sustainable manufacturing is currently absent. A systematic literature study was conducted to explain the potentialcontribution of these novel technologies to the economic, social, and environmental dimensions ofmanufacturing industries. This study describes how these cutting-edge technologies are used insustainable manufacturing. The findings of this study are particularly beneficial to practitioners whoseek to apply one or more digital technologies to sustainable development.

- PurposeThe aim of this study is to investigate the impact of integration capabilities on reverse supply chain (RSC) adoption and, consequently, RSCs' effectiveness. Thus, supply chain (SC) integration capabilities and their types in relation to internal, supplier and customer integration capabilities are investigated.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper a quantitative survey was conducted with Malaysian manufacturers with a certified the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001 environmental management system. The entire population was utilized through census sampling; 150 useable survey responses were received. The partial least squares technique was used for the data analysis.FindingsThe results indicate that internal integration improves external integration. In addition, supplier and customer integration have a positive direct effect on the adoption of RSC activities. Though internal integration has no significant direct effect on the adoption of RSC activities, it has an indirect impact through both supplier integrative capabilities and customer integrative capabilities.Practical implicationsThe findings of this study suggest that the managers of manufacturers whose internal integrative capabilities are the base and whose SC integrative capabilities and external integrative capabilities are reinforcing SC integrative capabilities should adopt RSC activities.Originality/valueThe paper offers in-depth insight into this issue and has shed light on the ambiguities in the literature regarding the role of SC integration in RSC adoption.
