... Salomon, Van Nunen, & Van Wassenhove (1995) note that product recovery management attempts to recover as much economic value as possible, while reducing the total amount of waste. They also provide a framework and a set of definitions that can help managers think about the issues in an organized way (see Figure 5). These authors examine the differences among various product recovery options including repair, refurbishing, remanufacturing, cannibalization, and recycling. ...

PT Asagri Selaras Asia is an agribusiness company in Jakarta, Indonesia that provides food supply for entrepreneurs in the tourism sector, such as hotels and restaurants. In running their business, the company has a supply chain network that effectively integrates suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, and stores. Supply chain management optimization is deemed necessary to maximize efficiency in every process carried out at PT Asagri Selaras Asia. One of the processes that can be optimized is the determination of facility location. The right facility location can minimize distance, delivery time, and operational costs and optimize the company's profit. Currently, the contract period for the distribution center (DC) used by PT Asagri Selaras Asia is about to expire therefore a decision is needed regarding the determination of the DC location for the next period, either extending the current DC contract or moving to a new location. This study aims to maximize the company's profit by comparing the profit obtained under existing and alternative DC, and the proposed DC from the experimental results using the Green Field Analysis (GFA) method. This study also aims to determine the feasibility of the three DC locations using the Network Optimization (NO) method with Anylogistix software. Based on the data analysis, the new DC is recommended to be located in the West Pejaten area, South Jakarta with latitude -6.2729150574 and longitude 106.8230798418 which will give an increase in profit of 80.53% compared to the existing DC.

Wal-Mart has been a leader in the retail industry since 1980s. In the 21st century, Wal-Mart’s RFID initiative is another innovation for Wal-Mart’s supply chain management. Wal-Mart’s recent business target in the 21Century is making a higher sales growth rate than inventory growth rate. Comparing with financial ratios of Wal-Mart’s competitors, Wal-Mart has significantly better ratios for days-in-inventory, inventory-sales-ratio, and cash-conversion-cycle. However, there is no significant evidence of better ratios for supply chain related profit ratio. Regression analysis reveals that while days-in-inventory has a similar effect on both sales growth rate and inventory growth rate, supply chain ratio has more effect on inventory growth rate than sales growth rate.

We are pleased to announce that our recent preprint, "A Bibliometric Analysis of Computational and Mathematical Techniques in the Cocoa Sustainable Food Value Chain" is being revised in "Heliyon". This comprehensive study offers an in-depth look into the role of computational and mathematical techniques in cocoa farming from 2000-2020. I would like to thank my esteemed co-authors, Dr. Diana Teresa Parra-Sánchez and Dr.Henry Lamos Diaz. Their expertise, dedication, and insightful contributions have been invaluable in this research endeavor. I am privileged to have the opportunity to work with such diligent and knowledgeable co-researchers, and look forward to our continued collaboration in the future. In this paper, we have taken an interdisciplinary approach, gathering insights from various fields such as Chemistry, Biology, Social Sciences, Econometrics and Finance, Health, and Computer Science. We have proposed a unique Cocoa Sustainable Food Value Chain framework that accentuates research use in areas such as genetic improvement, machinery optimization, health implications of food composition, and crop yield enhancement. An emergent trend we have noticed is the increasing application of machine learning techniques to address several critical challenges in cocoa farming - from post-production issues, bean quality assessment, and cocoa ripeness identification, to bean fermentation optimization and cocoa machinery industrialization. We have also identified four research gaps that could provide substantial value to smallholder cocoa farmers: optimal cocoa aggregation and distribution management, development of user-friendly high-tech solutions, agricultural technology adoption, and the evaluation of policy impacts. Our research contributes significantly to the body of knowledge by expanding agri-food supply chain concepts, recognizing the underdevelopment of ICT and IoT solutions for cocoa production management, and emphasizing the need to develop and transfer high-tech tools to enhance Good Agricultural Practices. We believe a digital transformation focused on smallholder farmers is vital to improving the Cocoa Sustainable Food Value Chain. We invite you all to delve into our paper, share it within your networks, and discuss it. Your thoughts, comments, and constructive criticisms are welcomed and highly appreciated. Let's together explore the potential of computational and mathematical techniques to transform the world of cocoa farming and contribute to a more sustainable food chain! 🔗 Access our preprint here: https://lnkd.in/e6HdCsJh #CocoaFarming #SustainableFoodChain #ComputationalTechniques #MathematicalTechniques #AgricultureTechnology #DigitalTransformation #AgriFood #SupplyChain #ICT #IoT #MachineLearning #Research #Preprint #Review #LiteratureReview

Es un hecho. Las organizaciones de actividad humana en pleno Siglo XXI no pueden prescindir de las Tecnologías de la Información y las Comunicaciones TIC). Ya no se puede seguir pensando que una empresa pública o privada, familiar, PyME, o grande, local, nacional o transnacional, exista sin reconocer que la información es un activo y un vinculante. • Activo porque es un hecho que en una sociedad global interconectada, la información es un bien de cambio y un material de trabajo cotidiano. • Vinculante pues cualquier organización tiene como sangre la información y como columna vertebral sistemas de comunicación y sistemas de información, algunos informatizados o computarizados co-existiendo con sistemas ciento por ciento humanos o ciento por humano no-humanos. Por este motivo, tener una visión amplia y extensa del concepto y noción de integración organizacional mediante la información se hace necesario para cualquier persona que trabaje en empresas, instituciones u otras organizaciones. Pero los avances tecnológicos y los desarrollos organizacionales han llevado hoy en día a que muchos de estos sistemas existan o simplemente se planifiquen sin una perspectiva integrada que permita sacar el máximo provecho a la información. Por tal motivo, hay que dominar las artes, los conceptos y las técnicas de la Integración de Sistemas en la gestión corporativa entendida como el gobierno integral de la organización. En este sentido, la asignatura pretende ser un motivador en integrar las organizaciones a través de los sistemas que tratan la información como material diario de trabajo y que le aportan un valor como activo. Estos sistemas son: Enterprise Resource Planning o ERP, Sistemas digitales de gestión de RRHH, Supply Chain Management o SCM, y Customer Relationship Management o CRM. La asignatura, obviamente, presenta tanto todos los conceptos y teoría necesaria para conocer y comprender los fundamentos para una integración corporativa, como todo el espectro de sistemas y tecnologías existentes y que es necesario integrar. Se suma a lo anterior, que para cada uno de los sistemas a revisar (ERP, RRHH, SCM y CRM) se describen sus características esenciales y sus mecanismos de despliegue e integración organizacional.

The overall operations of supply chain are affected by the increase of demand uncertainty. Inventory control is an important part in supply chain management. Under the requirement mentioned above, this paper studies the inventory control with uncertainty demand. Three-echelon inventory model of manufacture regarded as core enterprise is modeled, which assumes that uncertainty demand subjects to normal distribution. Redundancy inventory in the node enterprise of supply chain is discussed under the two inventory replenishment strategy (continuous review inventory and periodic review inventory). It 's shown that the result of this study is valuable to reduce the total cost of inventory and improve the performance of supply chain. Index Terms—uncertainty demand, supply chain, inventory I. INTRODUCTION Supply chain system is a loose alliance composed of a number of enterprises in the common interest and goals together. At the same time, in order to ensure the continuity of production and delivery timeliness, enterprises have to maintain some safety inventory to mitigate the impact of changes in the external environment. It can clearly be seen that inventory is important for continuity and stability of production and management. This article is based on the above background. It studies on supply chain inventory control problem. Focus on the needs of the uncertainty of normal distribution inventory control mechanism of the mechanism and control of the system. It focuses on mechanism and control mechanism of uncertain demand inventory control based on normal distribution.

There can be little dispute that supply chain management is an area of importance in the field of management research, yet there have been few literature reviews on this topic (Bechtel and Mulumudi, 1996, Proceedings of the 1996 NAPM Annual Academic Conference; Harland, 1996, British Journal of Management 7 (special issue), 63–80; Cooper et al., 1997). This paper sets out not to review the supply chain literature per se, but rather to contribute to a critical theory debate through the presentation and use of a framework for the categorisation of literature linked to supply chain management. The study is based on the analysis of a large number of publications on supply chain management (books, journal articles, and conference papers) using a Procite© database from which the literature has been classified according to two criteria: a content- and a methodology-oriented criterion.
