Purpose: This paper aims to propose a supply model of periodic review with joint replenishment for multi-products grouped by several variables with random and time dependence demand. Design/methodology/approach: The products are grouped by multivariate cluster analysis. The stochastic inventory...

Purpose: Digital supply chain (DSC) is an agile, customer-driven and productive way to develop different forms of returns for companies and to leverage efficient approaches with emerging techniques and data analytics. Though the advantages of digital supply chain management (DSCM) are many, its...

Purpose: The present research attempts to empirically examine the influence of consumer-brand engagement, its potent antecedents, and relationship quality towards creating and enhancing brand loyalty of automobile brands in Indian context. Design/methodology/approach: Primary data through...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of extended production disruptions because of process quality breakdowns on operational and financial performance. The investigation is conducted over the market cycle of a highly profitable product, e.g. a patented...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present a unique model for the production–recycling–reuse of aluminium refreshment cans. It is presumed that disposed-off 250-ml aluminium cans are collected from the retail outlet. The cans are thereafter arranged into non-tainted and tainted...

Purpose: This study aims to contribute to the ongoing debate on behavioral operational research (BOR), specifically discussing the potential of system dynamics (SD) models to analyze decision-making heuristics. In more detail, the study suggests using an SD model as an ex-post research tool...

Purpose: In this study, a mixed-model assembly line (MMAL) balancing problem is applied in a make-to-order (MTO) environment. One of the important problems in MTO systems is identifying the control points, which is considered by designing a control system. Furthermore, the worker assignment...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper seeks to provide a hybrid framework of sustainable supply chain fuzzy rotation matrix regarding the challenges in today’s business environment and the goals pursued by sustainable supply chain, to prioritize effective infrastructure to manage the challenges...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper to address the challenges on “what should the management plan for organization development (OD) toward becoming an innovative organization?” Design/methodology/approach: This study applies the concept of innovation management, maturity model and...
