In order to survive in this competitive and ever changing market, manufacturers have to improve and enhance the competitiveness, flexibility, responsiveness and sustainability with the application of the cutting-edge technologies and innovative management methods. New concepts, i.e., Intelligent manufacturing, flexible manufacturing, agile manufacturing, network manufacturing, green manufacturing...
Circulation economy is a form of economic organization through the integration of industrial chains,to achieve re-use, multiple use, and recycling. The green supply chain is a kind of modern green logistic model that through minimum resource input to reach the highest efficiency and maximum recycling, to realize the coordinated development of economy and ecology at the idea of circular economy and...
In the 21st century, humanity faces three crises which are population explosion, environmental degradation and shortage of resources. So green Logistics has been drawn greater attention. As an important part of sustainable development, green logistics must be related closely to green production, green marketing and green consumption. Various economic activities of human being must not be excessive...
People think of a manufacturing supply chain as a simple linear process of goods swiftly passing though an efficient dasialogistics pipelinepsila. They concentrate only on the portion of the pipe directly controlled by them or at best by their customers and suppliers. This is a myopic view. Supply chains are in fact complex interacting networks linking industries, economies and other organizations,...
Increasing regulatory legislations for carbon and waste management and the concerns on corporate social responsibility are driving forces behind sustainable supply chain network design which involves taking into account social, economic and environmental objectives at design time. While the social dimension is sometime harder to capture or quantify in mathematical terms, the emission trading schema...
Sustainable development is the theme of the future. This paper first analyzes the impact of logistics on the environment in the context of sustainable development, then points out that green logistics is the inevitable choice for sustainable development. Finally, some countermeasures for the development of green logistics are proposed from three angles: the government should make law and regulations,...
A logistics network is "connective tissue" in a comprehensive supply chain and often the decisive factor for the chain's ultimate success. Logistics networks in sparsely populated areas are facing different challenges than those that operating in relatively densely inhabited ones. This paper discusses, firstly, various critical success factors of logistics network. The challenges of operating...
The regional MF system has its own evolution mechanism. In order to promote the regional economic sustainable development, this paper proposes a conception that building a regional MF coupling system coordinating regional economic development. First this paper gives the structure of regional MF coupling system. The regional MF coupling system is a complex system containing a variety of adaptive agents,...
In order to ensure the healthy development of distribution center (DC), it is necessary to constitute the evaluation method. This paper deals with establishing the evaluation method of DC by grey reltional analysis (GRA). Firstly, the parameters of the indices system were selected, such as the rationality of location, the efficiency of space utilization and the level of information et al.. Secondly,...
The problem of the coordinative development in regional logistics system was studied by multi-attribute utility function theory. Through system analysis and goal resolvability, the synthetic evaluation indices of supply and demand level were established respectively. The concept of coordinative development level about supply-demand system was proposed from the angle of regional sustainable development...
The top global companies and internationally renowned academic researchers recognize the importance of environmental issues and sustainability for innovation and sustainable growth. Research on how to integrate environmental issues with operations has pointed out opportunities and laid down a research agenda. In spite of all this, sustainability is not yet holistically integrated in supply chain management...
