Background: One of the development strategies uses R&D activity as the main source of innovation, which is often carried out in cooperation with other units, but in particular in the supply chain, and therefore applies to cooperation between enterprises and their customers and suppliers. The aim of the study was to identify the variable determinants of the impact of the character of relationships...
Background: Packaging problems are an integral part of logistics and the implementation of packaging significantly affects the effectiveness of logistics processes, as a factor which increases the safety and the quality of products being transported. Active packaging is an area of technology needed to meet the requirements of the contemporary consumer. Active packaging creates additional opportunities...
Background: Today, both researchers and practitioners have many methods for supporting the decision-making process. Due to the conditions in which supply chains function, the most interesting are multi-criteria methods. The use of sophisticated methods for supporting decisions requires the parameterization and execution of calculations that are often complex. So is it efficient to use sophisticated...
Background: The paper is devoted to the notion and benefits of implementing virtual work in global supply chains. Virtual work must be understood as an intentional activity of a human being, aimed at rendering services (tangible and intangible), by means of ITC tools, performed in a distance from the traditional place of work, in a mobile manner. The empirical research were conducted on the basis...
Background: The below considerations provide an overview of the issues of sustainable development, logistics, to financial engineering instruments and the role of intellectual capital in the process of transformation of public hospitals. The aim of this research was to assess the competitiveness of the network of public hospitals in the market of health services based on literature studies, as well...
Background: A professional future is the next logical step after a student completes their chosen degree course. More frequently, even during their studies, young people seek opportunities to participate in various conferences, training courses, internships, work placements, and to travel abroad, etc. All of this has one main goal - to increase the student's attractiveness as a potential employee...
Background: Service quality, customer satisfaction and customer loyalty have received a special attention in the recent health sector literature. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between service quality and customer satisfaction as well as the correlation between service quality and customer loyalty. Methods: The self-report questionnaires gathered from patients at army medical...
Background: The information exchange process within the supply chain management is considered key to managing physical product flow and improving cost and service performance of enterprises. There are many different types of information that can be shared within the supply chain. In some cases, the information shared has to be strongly secured. The aim of the paper is to prepare appropriate models...
Background: Energy efficiency has recently become one of the key aspects in the manufacturing sector. The facilities should improve their performance due to the related economic costs and the significant environmental impacts. The objective of this paper is to prove that energy efficiency of opportunities for energy savings improvements provided by the energy auditors are efficient. These opportunities...
Background: The study was initiated because managing the problem of food losses and waste seems to be essential in terms of reducing pressure on natural environment, growing world population, millions of undernourished people, and economic wellbeing of food operators. The aim of the paper is to analyze and evaluate the problem of food losses and waste, and its consequences. The author has made an...
Background: This model presents a significant model for analyzing the effect of deteriorating items and promotional effort in fuzzy optimal instantaneous replenishment model for finite planning horizon. Accounting for holding cost per unit per unit time and ordering cost per order have traditionally been the case of modeling inventory systems in fuzzy environment. These imprecise parameters defined...
Introduction: In the past decade, the Polish airport market has seen an unprecedented increase in passenger numbers. Regional airports in the second half of the XX century functioned as monopolies in a market heavily typified by Chicago style bilateral contracts. Consequently, a "hub-and-spoke" system has been in operation, where the regional airports perform the role of first port of call...
Background: The publications can be found in the literature, which show the volumes of commercial warehouse areas in Poland. These data are used for evaluations of logistics attractiveness of voivodships. These evaluations influence decisions of local authorities, which create planning of territorial development and investment climate as well as decisions of investors, and as a consequence, they influence...
Background: It is assumed that the future of quality management systems and Logistics is a technology and in particular its level of innovation and the ability to decrease the negative effects related to its improvement. Unquestionably attempt to integrate quality management and technology in the logistics subsystems requires a systemic approach to this issue. Therefore, the aim of the publication...
Background: The aim of the article is to present the concept of integrated management of airport safety audit. Airports function in a dynamically changing environment. These changes are the result of EU legislative processes and the changes of safety risk profile. Therefore, it is necessary to search for new and effective methods of ensuring safety and security of airports. Methods: The efficient...
Background: The efficiency of logistics processes is a very important decision-making aspect, both from financial point of view as well as in terms of processes at the operational level. Taking into account both the specific features of a cold supply chain as well as conditions of the comprehensive analysis of the efficiency of logistics processes, the significant aspect is the elaboration of the...
Background: Challenges in today’s business environment require from logistics and supply chains managers continuous searching for innovative methods in business processes management, oriented to the simultaneous achievement of the Triple Bottom Line effects, namely economic, social and environmental. As a result, the concept of sharing economy is nowadays gaining rising significance among business...
Background: Despite their relatively low economic potential and modest scale of activity of each single unit, en masse small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) create a major part of real GDP in all developed countries. Moreover, having very rarely own R&D backup facilities, SMEs are mostly strikingly open for new technical and technological solutions, perceiving innovations as a challenge and...
Background: Inter-organizational network complexity exists in many forms. Depending on the type of network relationship, we could see different pattern of complexity emerged from the complex interorganizational relations. Yet managing them has taken rather a monotonous approach. However, no previous study has attempted how this complexity may appear in the different type of network structure. Methods:...
Background: The main objective of the paper is to develop a theoretical basis and a concept of the monitoring procedure of the technical parameters of warehouse racks, focusing on high-bay warehouses and high storage warehouses. Author describes potential plan for conducting his research based on simulation methods and, in the longer term, to conduct research based on existing objects (high-bay warehouses...
