In times of rapid and unpredictable developments, companies experience significant volatility in capacity utilization. Virtual capacity exchange platforms help to mitigate this challenge by exchanging capacities with anonymous participants in market-like peer-to-peer networks. However, its efficiency is hindered by behavioral uncertainties, includi...

Value co-creation has become a widely used concept in various domains due to its broad applicability. However, the lack of a consensus among researchers regarding the underlying concepts and related processes has resulted in disparate definitions, leading to misunderstandings both within and across disciplines. Moreover, the abundance of literature...

Shared Manufacturing has emerged as a transformative paradigm in the manufacturing industry that can potentially disrupt the sector. In particular, the formation of ecosystems could serve as an incubator for sharing approaches. New business models linked to demand-based resource allocation could increase the manufacturer’s competitiveness and can e...

Federated Industrial Platform Ecosystems include several different topics of high research interest. This minitrack allows reporting on novel insights and groundbreaking developments such as data spaces or generative AI.

Particularly young researchers face challenges in organizing large design science research (DSR) projects and often struggle to capture, communicate, and reflect on important components to produce purposeful outcomes. Making informed decisions at the project start, such as selecting suitable kernel theories and development procedures, is of great r...

Integrating digital technologies offer companies a range of potentials for optimizing business processes, exploring new business models and collaborating along value chains to co-create value. However, this integration increases complexity, especially within SMEs that lack extensive resources to drive data transformation. GAIA-X offers potential so...

In Zeiten zunehmender Vernetzung und Digitalisierung stehen kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen vor der Herausforderung, neben den bisherigen Produkten digitale Zusatzleistungen anzubieten. Es fehlt vor allem an praxisnahen Leitfäden, die aufzeigen, wie sich diese digitale Transformation tatsächlich verwirklichen lässt. Dieser Beitrag vereint a...

Supply Chain 4.0 ensures intelligence infrastructure, machine-to-machine communication, real-time analysis of data synchronization of the manufacturing process, and smart maintenance-based data-driven decision-making. This digitization of manufacturing processes has made the possibility of adapting digital twins. A digital twin, which assists in ma...

Blockchain technology receives attention in research, as it helps overcoming challenges evoked by information asymmetries. This offers new ways for decentralized exchange of capacities. However, the way how technical assets can be connected to the blockchain remains unclear. This paper proposes a draft for the technical implementation of 3D printer...

The vision of Industry 4.0 and ongoing challenges in logistics raise the need to develop an educational environment that supports to better understand cause-effect relationships in the digitization of logistics. Students must develop interdisciplinary competencies to grasp the overall vision and work as a team. Learning methods are becoming more sp...

Trust in all processes on the shopfloor is crucial for the success of a production process, especially in cross-company scenarios such as shared manufacturing, in which independent parties interact with each other. A cyber-physical production system (CPPS) contributes to the vision of a decentralized, self-configuring and flexible production. Digit...

Purpose: Today’s supply chain management faces complex and globally distributed networks of customers and suppliers. Blockchain solutions serve as underlying IT infrastructures to connect the network participants and enable multiple applications. This paper aims at bringing together and discussing current and future research topics in the field of...

Blockchain-Technology (BCT) is a promising technology to establish trust in inter-organizational collaborative networks. Yet, there is a lack of prescriptive knowledge on applying them successfully. Based on established cooperation designs, the paper reports on an ongoing research project to develop a set of trust-building design principles for mit...

Companies increasingly outsource services with the intention to disseminate risks and workload (problem) with other organizations. Reasons for that may be the lack of internal expertise, reduced execution costs, and network effects such as focus on the core business. Crowdsourcing is a way of disseminate the workload, utilizing external expertise a...

Globalization, digitalization and disruptions recently driven by the Covid19 pandemic are affecting today’s supply chains and thus are challenging companies in maintaining their businesses. Resulting uncertainties lead to potential over- and undercapacities and therefore to economic inefficiencies in companies. Engaging in intercompany networks can...

The provision of physical resources, their interconnection by the internet and the creation of data as well as its exchange and transferring via corresponding virtual communication, increases complexity. The increase of complexity based on the growing data structure, various functionalities of digital technologies and diversity of the range of work...

In the course of the digital transformation, organizations are not only facing increasing volatility of the markets, but also increasing customer requirements and thus an increasing complexity in production and logistics systems. Therefore, production plants need to become more flexible by transforming conventional production systems to Cyber-physi...
