Supply chain management is constantly evolving. The business world is transitioning from one paradigm to the next. In the corporate sector, supply chain 4.0 is the most recent trend. This article examines and analyses the existing state-of-the-art literature on Supply Chain Management 4.0 (SCM 4.0) and the interaction between digital technologies and Supply Chain Management. A bibliometric study and a literature assessment of state-of-the-art publications in the relevant topic were done. The impact of emerging technology on various supply chain operations is examined in this research. In addition, the study establishes a foundation for future research and practice. Because it describes the pillar components for any supply chain change, the suggested work is valuable for both academics and practitioners. It also suggests a set of study questions that might be utilized as a foundation for the field's future research. This research presents a fresh and original literature review-based study on SCM4.0, as there is currently no comprehensive evaluation accessible that includes bibliometric analysis, motives, impediments, and the impact of technologies on distinct SC processes.

Industry 4.0 (I4.0) is an innovative way of improving organizations' production methods by using new technologies that revolutionize the Supply Chain (SC). Traditionally, SC managers focused on simple tasks such as delivering products to customers and assuring that a company maintains a sufficient supply of raw materials to sustain ongoing operations. However, with the fast progress in logistics, SC Management (SCM) has become a complicated process involving forecasting demands, establishing lucrative partnerships, and optimizing business performance. To overcome this challenge, Smart Supply Chain Management (SSCM) uses several technologies such as Big Data (BD), the Internet of things (IoT), Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Advanced Robotics (AR) to analyze data, and identifies trends and opportunities in the market that enhance the effectiveness of logistics, whether inside or outside of the company. This paper examines the available literature on SSCM. It aims to assess the impact of new technologies on SSCM.

Supply Chain Management

ISSN : 1359-8546

Article publication date: 1 September 2005

The purpose of this paper is to review a sample of the literature relating to the integration and implementation of supply chain management practices from a strategic viewpoint.

Design/methodology/approach

The literature is examined from three perspectives. First, supply chain integration covers issues relating to integration of core processes across organizational boundaries through improved communication, partnerships, alliances and cooperation. Second, strategy and planning examines supply chain management as a strategic matter for trading partners, along with factors relating to the amount of planning required. Third, implementation issues concern factors critical for successful implementation, as well as issues specific to inter and intra‐organizational aspects of supply chain initiatives are contained in this sub‐group

An important emergent theme from the literature is the importance of taking a holistic view, and the systemic nature of interactions between the participants. At the same time, it is also apparent that this requirement to take such an holistic and systemic view of the supply chain acts as an impediment to more extensive implementation. The strategic nature of adopting a supply chain wide perspective, on the one hand provides significant potential benefit, and on the other requires trading partners to think and act strategically. This is easier said than done within a stand‐alone organization, let alone across a diverse and dispersed group of trading partners.

Research limitations/implications

The scope of this review is by design limited to a cross‐section of the literature in this area. As such, it cannot, and does not, attempt to be an examination of the full range of the literature, but a sampling of important and influential works.

Practical implications

This review of the literature serves to highlight the inter‐dependence between integration (technologies, logistics, and partnerships), a strategic view of supply chain systems, and implementation approach. All three need to inform and underpin each other in order for management of supply chains to be able to deliver on the promise of benefits for all trading partners.

Originality/value

This study reviews a sample of recent and classic literature in this field, and in doing so provides some clear guidelines for the conduct of future research.

Supply Chain Management is a network of facilities that produce raw materials, transform them into intermediate goods and then final products, and deliver the products to customers through a distribution system. The management of the supply chain and the roles of various actors involved differ from industry to industry and company to company. As a result Supply Chain Management (SCM) has become a vital issue for manufacturers, professionals and researchers. It is felt that to manage the supply chain effectively entire structure of supply chain must be understood properly. This paper attempts to provide the reader a complete picture of supply chain management through a systematic literature review. It presents main activities of supply chain and the step-by-step approach for understanding a complete picture of supply chain.

Supply chains can be basically defined, as a group of interconnected companies that adds some sort of value, to a stream of transforming inputs from the source to the end product that are demanded by the end customers. The increasing globalization, which has led to increase in the demand of the products, has forced the companies for outsourcing and which, in turn has led to supply chain management. To deliver quality along with effective prices, supply chain management has become the need of the hour. The world is changing constantly and rapidly, and so are the demands of the consumer. In order to meet this, demand supply chain plays a crucial role. This paper aims at discussing various factors that play an important role, in supply chain management.

In ongoing scenario, production and administration of a product or services and focus on core activities have lead to a perception that companies or firms are connected together in a network of supply chain. This created a challenge to coordinate the entire supply chain management in a fruitful manner. SCM has its roots since the business originated to provide product and services to the customers. SCM keeps on eye on the flow of information of goods and services in order to service maximum value to the customer. No research have been done till now which focuses on core initiative and constructs of SCM. The purpose of this study is to provide a criteria that flourishes knowledge of supply chain management and provide clear view to the researchers to understand the importance of theoretical investigation in different fields of supply chain management and explore the importance of its performance..

• Management: ◦ Effective management practices are crucial for addressing FLW in beef CSCL systems. ◦ There is a notable transition from LM to FLM and SFLM, with the potential for emerging technologies to create an “Intelligent Sustainable Food Logistics Management” phase. ◦ Suboptimal management practices continue to contribute significantly to FLW, underscoring the need for enhanced strategies and adherence to regulations and standards.
• Sustainability: ◦ Sustainability in beef CSCL involves addressing social, economic, and environmental benefits. ◦ Reducing FLW can lead to increased profits, improved customer satisfaction, public health, equity, and environmental conservation by minimising resource use and emissions. ◦ Comprehensive research integrating all sustainability dimensions is needed to fully understand and mitigate FLW. Current efforts often address only parts of sustainability. A more holistic approach is required to balance environmental, economic, and social dimensions effectively.
• Network Design: ◦ Effective network design and optimisation are pivotal in reducing FLW within beef CSCL systems. ◦ There is a necessity for integrating all three levels of management decisions in the logistics network design process. Decision levels in network design must be considered to understand trade-offs among sustainability components in this process. ◦ Future research should focus on integrating management decisions and network design, CSCL uncertainties, sustainability dimensions, and advanced technologies to enhance efficiency and reduce waste in beef CSCL systems.
• Information Technologies: ◦ Information technologies such as Digital Twins (DTs) and Blockchain (BC) play a significant role in improving efficiency and reducing FLW in beef CSCL. ◦ The integration of these technologies can enhance understanding of fluid dynamics, thermal exchange, and meat quality variations, optimising the cooling process and reducing energy usage. ◦ Challenges like data security and management efficiency need to be addressed to maximise the benefits of these technologies.

IMPACT OF TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT, SUPPLY CHAIN RESILIENCE AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE ON SUSTAINABILITY AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE, AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY IN PAKISTAN

• Nadeem-ul-Hassan, Dr Atif Hussain, Maria Tahseen Akhtar, Mubeen Shoukat, Naveed Suleman, Muhammad Sajjad, Atif Munir

Background: The pharmaceutical industry's performance in the global economy has been significantly influenced by the increasing competition stemming from globalization, economic liberalization, and the Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) agreement. To maintain excellence and sustain competitiveness in the global market, organizations need to integrate Total Quality Management (TQM), Supply Chain Resilience (SCR), Organizational Culture (OC), and sustainability practices into their core objectives. This research aims to investigate the impact of TQM, SCR, and OC on the sustainability and operational performance (OP) of the pharmaceutical industry in Pakistan, and to explore their interlinkages. Methodology: A conceptual framework was developed to test hypotheses based on existing literature. A quantitative research approach was adopted, with data collected through a survey of pharmaceutical professionals across Pakistan using convenient sampling, resulting in 203 completed questionnaires. The research model was tested using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). Finding: The results demonstrate that TQM, SCR, and OC have significant positive impacts on both sustainability practices and operational performance. Additionally, sustainability mediates the relationship between TQM and OP, SCR and OP, and OC and OP. These findings contribute to the literature by showing that implementing TQM, SCR, and OC practices can significantly enhance sustainability and operational performance in the pharmaceutical industry. Conclusion: This study is the first to examine the direct and indirect effects of TQM, SCR, and OC on OP, considering the mediating role of sustainability. The insights from this research can guide policymakers and industry leaders in implementing these practices to achieve a competitive advantage in the pharmaceutical sector.
