Capturing Value in International Manufacturing and Supply Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
Manufacturing companies are increasingly dependent on external resources and are endeavoring to develop and manage the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) information systems capabilities and strategic inter-firm relationships concurrently and dynamically to leverage external resources for competitive advantage. This paper investigates and theorizes about the correlation between different types of ERP systems and different Collaborative Enterprise Governance (CEG) strategies, where an enterprise is considered to be made up of parts of different companies engaging in very close collaboration. Empirical case studies have been conducted based on six successful manufacturing companies in the UK and China. It specifically proposes a new conceptual model – the Dynamic Enterprise Reference Grid for ERP (DERG-ERP) – as a management contingency framework. The purpose of this is to improve the concomitance between strategic thinking, agile manufacturing and ERP information systems development and implementation in response to the changing business and operational requirements.

متن کاملOptimal design of supply chain network under uncertainty environment using hybrid analytical and simulation modeling approach
Models that aim to optimize the design of supply chain networks have gained more interest in the supply chain literature. Mixed-integer linear programming and discrete-event simulation are widely used for such an optimization problem. We present a hybrid approach to support decisions for supply chain network design using a combination of analytical and discrete-event simulation models. The prop...
متن کاملA decision making model for outsourcing of manufacturing activities by ANP and DEMATEL under fuzzy environment
Decision making about outsourcing or insourcing of manufacturing activities is a type of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem, which requires considering quantitative and qualitative factors as evaluation criteria simultaneously. Therefore, a suitable MCDM method can be useful in this area as it can consider the interactions among quantitative and qualitative criteria. The analytic...
متن کاملThe impact of interwoven integration practices on supply chain value addition and firm performance
Drawing on the supply chain (SC) management literature, this article conceptualizes and empirically tests a framework that shows how both external and internal integration practices are significant and positively associated with SC value addition and firm performance. The framework also tests the impact of value addition as a reinforcing factor on firm performance. The outcome of this investiga...
