Demand chain management: an integrative approach in automotive retailingJournal of Operations Management - Tập 20 - Trang 707-728 - 2002
Peter Hines, Riccardo Silvi, Monica Bartolini
AbstractRecent reviews of the ‘operations management’ (OM) research literature have shown a surprising little shift towards empirical methodologies from traditional modelling solution methods. In addition, there is generally a lack of empirical testing and validation of manufacturing strategies. Coupled to this fact is that empirical work is...... hiện toàn bộ
Toward a theory of competencies for the management of product complexity: Six case studiesJournal of Operations Management - Tập 26 - Trang 590-610 - 2008
David J. Closs, Mark A. Jacobs, Morgan Swink, G. Scott Webb
AbstractBusiness units in six Fortune 500 companies were studied to develop better understanding regarding drivers of product portfolio complexity and the means to manage them. Our research focuses on identifying important competencies for managing product portfolio complexity and on the development of appropriate theoretical explanations. W...... hiện toàn bộ
Modularity, product variety, production volume, and component sourcing: theorizing beyond generic prescriptionsJournal of Operations Management - Tập 20 - Trang 549-575 - 2002
F Salvador, C Forza, M Rungtusanatham
AbstractResearch in operations management suggests that firms can mitigate the negative impact of product variety on operational performance by deliberately pursuing modularity in the design of product family architectures. However, modularity is not a dichotomous property of a product, as different types of modularity can be embedded into a...... hiện toàn bộ
The resource constrained time/cost tradeoff project scheduling problem with discounted cash flowsJournal of Operations Management - Tập 14 - Trang 255-275 - 1996
Oya Icmeli, S.Selcuk Erenguc
AbstractMany of the recent studies on Project Scheduling focus on maximizing the Net Present Value (NPV) of cash flows that occur during the implementation of a project in the presence of precedence and resource constraints. The literature contains several integer programming formulations, heuristic procedures and their implementations. In most of these formulation...... hiện toàn bộ
Offshoring technology innovation: A case study of rare‐earth technologyJournal of Operations Management - Tập 26 - Trang 222-238 - 2008
Brian J. Fifarek, Francisco M. Veloso, Cliff I. Davidson
AbstractMany US firms are improving their individual competitiveness by offshoring manufacturing operations, services and, increasingly, knowledge work. Although research to date has maintained that these practices are beneficial to the offshoring firm and national economies, by reducing costs and expanding markets, little is known about the...... hiện toàn bộ
User acceptance of complex electronic market mechanisms: Role of information feedbackJournal of Operations Management - Tập 31 - Trang 489-503 - 2013
Gediminas Adomavicius, Shawn P. Curley, Alok Gupta, Pallab Sanyal
AbstractThis paper broadens the scope of evaluating the design of economic mechanisms that is traditionally done solely from an economic perspective. We introduce and demonstrate the application of acceptability to evaluate complex economic mechanisms. In particular, we apply our approach...... hiện toàn bộ
Concurrent engineering and its consequencesJournal of Operations Management - Tập 19 - Trang 97-115 - 2001
Xenophon Koufteros, Mark Vonderembse, William Doll
AbstractTechnology and market changes introduce uncertainty and equivocality in the product development arena, and firms are considering various structural relationships to help them cope with these changes. Concurrent engineering (CE) is a mechanism that can reduce uncertainty and equivocality and improve an organization’s competitive capab...... hiện toàn bộ
An Investigation of Justice in supply chain relationships and their performance impactJournal of Operations Management - Tập 31 - Trang 236-247 - 2013
Ram Narasimhan, Sriram Narayanan, Ravi Srinivasan
AbstractJustice is important in improving performance of supply chain relationships. However, the role of justice in improving performance in supply chain relationships is an under‐investigated subject in the literature. In studying the joint impact of justice dimensions, the traditional assumption is that the three forms of justice interact...... hiện toàn bộ
