This paper focuses on the real-world use of cloud-based analytics for supporting medication track-and-trace and monitoring safety and quality in the pharmaceutical supply chain. The paper describes a track-and-trace system developed by German start-up XQS-Service GmbH and adopted by manufacturers, wholesalers, pharmacies and clinics in Germany. The paper also discusses the benefits of using in-memory...
There are many cases showing that conventional pesticide residues in crops growing incidence, consumers gradually turn to accept the organic crops, and driven by the booming healthy retail chain stores. This study is based on example of an organic retail chain store, analysis of the concept of “trust” the object of study in the supply chain between suppliers or partners; furthermore, to explore the...
Small and medium-sized enterprises play an important role in developing national economy, which is significant for self-innovation improvement to study self-innovation routing. Based on improved model of chain-like joint proposed by S.J.Kline and N.Rosenberg, the chain-like joint model of self-innovation routing is constructed, which surmountes the problem of analyzing innovation behavior from the...
The Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the national economy play an irreplaceable role in solving the employment and achieving social stability. The credit is discriminative and the financing is difficult. The paper takes into account the interests of all parties, which is conducive to share the benefits. Supply chain financing addresses the difficulties of the small and medium enterprises financing,...
Two industrial challenges of uncertainty and interoperability arose as the new forms of industries structure have emerged. Network theories are systematically reviewed in three streams of network structure, network strategy and network evolution in order to find out the current theories' contribution on those two challenging issues, which include supply chain management (SCM), business network (BN),...
The Internet of Things (IoT) connects physical world to the cyber-world, which may impose predicable and unpredictable changes to enterprise business models and our everyday life. In this paper, we propose a model to describe the impact of IoT on the material, information and capital flow as well as carbon footprint through the supply chain, and further support the model with possible business scenarios...
Through providing the new definitions of supply chain economy, market pertinent chain, operation link and interface link, we establish the supply chain economy model with electronic commerce based on variational inequality theory and spatial price theory. Furthermore, we have analyzed the characteristics and feasible conditions of cooperative innovation between supply chains, and added the cooperative...
As public goods, hospital materials lack internal cost pressure and external efficiency motive, so there are many problems in the supply system of hospital materials - the sluggish prediction of medical material demand as well as the patient-oriented response plan, ineffective information communication and coordination between supply and demand of materials, inadequate standardization of management...
From the perspective of government regulation behaviors, this paper addresses the effects of information goods market structure on the cooperative R&D innovation incentive and the coordinated effectiveness of supply chain contract.
This article creates a green supply chain performance evaluation index system from the six aspects of financial indicators, information indicators, customer service indicators, the development and innovation indicators, business process indicators and environmental protection indicators. Then we describe the method of overall performance evaluation of green supply chain in detail from the index weight...
The analyzing of dynamic game for innovation between cluster supply chain enterprises indicates: enterprise with non-cooperation innovation and without any spillover of information will engage the most R & D, and get the lowest efficiency and the least profit; enterprise with non-cooperation innovation and complete spillover of information will have the least R & D expenditures and the externalities...
With the rapid development of tourism, tourism service innovation capacity becomes more and more important for tourism corporation and managers. In view of the intension and hierarchical structure of service innovation capacity, we used the analytic hierarchy process to evaluate service innovation capacity, and put forward the suggestion of the building of service innovation capacity.
In this paper, we consider a manufacturer-supplier chain situation in which the manufacturer coordinates, e.g., supports, its supplier's innovation that can eventually lead to supply cost reduction. Developing some mathematical models, we show that sharing innovation cost has a better coordination effect, and manufacturer can share a part of innovation cost when the innovation coefficient is lager,...
The theoretical research and design of gymnasiums mainly focuses on the structure type, architectural form, selection of building materials, technical specifications, etc. and seldom touches on the fundamental issue about the scientific design and precise market position. This paper has discussed the supply mechanism of three kinds of gymnasiums, which are private gymnasiums, pubic gymnasiums and...
The network economy, which appeared in 1990's, can be considered as a kind of new economic pattern. In network economy age, more and more enterprises inclined to adopt co-competition strategies for competition strategies to exceed the restriction in resources and abilities and gain the opportunities in the market rapidly and accurately. This paper first analyzed the characteristics and limitation...
Management innovation is the key element for an enterprise's sustainable development, which determines whether an enterprise can stand out in the fierce competition of 21st century, and develop rapidly so as to keep an enterprise sustainable running. Through empirical research on innovative management of Delixi-electric Co.Ltd, a Sino-French joint venture, this article summarizes the practice of the...
This study uses frameworks from the supply chain management (SCM) and strategy literatures to explore the relationship among learning, trust, and innovation in Chinese auto component sectors. Statistical analysis of the responses of 81 Yangtze River delta auto component manufacturing companies leads to the development of a strategic relational typology which is useful in explaining auto-component...
Information systems integration is implemented on foundation of knowledge innovation, and effective mechanism is needed to promote knowledge innovation. Firstly, knowledge innovation parameter is put forward, and knowledge innovation cost model is built up based on it. Then mechanism on fixed paying is analysis to find that it could not promote knowledge innovation. Because of this mechanism on variable...
The profit allocation is a complex and critical problem in supply chain coordination. In this paper,four models of the traditional non-cooperative game, cooperative game, non-cooperative innovative game and cooperation innovative game of the supply chain consisting a manufacturer and a retailer are discussed. The overall supply chain profits of four models are compared and the conclusion that cooperation...
There are three typical types of grain supply chain in China non-primary grain-yielding areas. Besides problems inside supply chain itself, the competition pressure from foreign grain multinationals and its supply chain becomes more seriously. A new grain supply chain mode of service supply chain for China non-primary grain-yielding areas is put forward and analyzed, which is to strengthen competitiveness...
