Studies have confirmed the benefits of using Third-party logistics (TPL) for efficient construction management, especially in large projects. Nevertheless, there is a dearth of decision-making models evaluating the exact role of TPL providers as drivers for supply chain (SC) integration and optimisation. This study aims to develop a decision-making...

To contend with the current economic conditions, construction managers are recommended to identify sustainable construction supply chain management (CSCM) trends over the forthcoming years and adopt suitable techniques to manage construction projects strategically, tactically, and operationally. However, there is a shortage of studies exploring Lea...

While recent years have seen the conduct of works covering the connections between green operations, green supply chain integration, and corporate sustainability, a comparative study on manufacturing and service industries has not yet been carried out to examine these interrelations in developing countries. In Vietnam, insights from such endeavors...

Previous studies have conceptually mentioned the important roles of lean practices (LP) (in design, planning, operations, and safety) in improving logistics collaboration (LC) and construction supply chain performance (SCP). However, there is a lack of studies exploring their relationships in a structural model. Thus, this study is conducted to pro...

Purpose Enhancing sustainable construction supply chain performance is crucial and can be achieved through supply chain integration, eco-design and digital transformation. This study aims to evaluate the impacts of supply chain integration, eco-design and digital transformation on the performance of construction supply chains. Design/methodology/a...

Background: Since many digital tools or approaches can be implemented, hospital managers need to select suitable ones to digitalize hospitals within the budget limitation to achieve expected hospital performance. Previous studies in this aspect are limited; hence, the results of this study contribute to the knowledge body of hospital digitalization...

The last decades have seen a growing interest in construction management amongst scholars, particularly, in how to apply supply chain management (SCM) strategies to improve logistics efficiency and project performance. Nevertheless, there is a lack of systematic literature reviews (SLRs) which integrate multiple quantitative methods to synthesise t...

This study proposes a BIM-based framework for logistics optimization in construction supply chain management with agent-based modeling to leverage the collaboration amongst the construction participants, and achieve the efficient logistics performance. Each construction participant uses the BIM-based data for the local optimization and evaluation o...

Purpose – To deal with the present situation and recover after the COVID-19 pandemic, construction firms are required to recognise the trends in construction supply chain management (CSCM) for the upcoming years and determine the appropriate practices towards the trends for the improvement of construction activities in terms of strategy, tactic, an...

Improving the performances of logistics activities is an important reason for applying the concept of supply chain management in the construction industry. Based on the systematic literature review, we find the key decisions, which are presently focused on construction logistics and supply chain management. These decisions are identified for three...

Because of thin academic literature in exploring BIM (Building information modelling) contributions to construction supply chain management (SCM) trends, this paper uses the structured Delphi technique to recognize key trends in construction SCM as well as assess contributions of recent BIM systems to the trends. As a result, 12 key construction SC...

This paper proposes a multi-objective site layout optimization framework using a hybrid approach of systematic layout planning and mathematical algorithm layout planning. Systematic layout planning facilitates managers' qualitative evaluations of facility relationships while mathematical modeling supports the optimization of productivity aspects of...

Purpose - This paper proposes an innovative BIM-based framework for multi-objective and dynamic temporary construction site layout design (SLD), which uses a hybrid approach of systematic layout planning (SLP) and mathematical modelling. Design/methodology/approach - The hybrid approach, which follows a step-by-step process for site layout planning...

This paper utilizes a systematic literature review methodology to identify the present focuses and discuss the future directions of decision-making in construction supply chain management (CSCM). The results show that, at present, the CSCM applications are still focusing on material and resources management with the internal supply chain (SC) integ...

This paper utilizes a systematic literature review methodology to highlight the evolution of application of decision-making in logistics and construction supply chain management (CSCM) and propose future research directions in the field. The recent applications of SCM concepts in the construction industry have been limited and at the slower speed w...

This study is conducted to identify the key factors and propose a roadmap for successful lean transformation in Vietnamese manufacturing firms. Eight managers of two companies having successful lean performances and two lean experts from university and consulting company are invited to participate in semi-structured interviews to verify key factors...

Vietnamese government has delivered policies for the development of the automobile manufacturing; however, managers in the section blame that the policies have been impractical and bureaucratic. It is believed that the supportive policies for the establishment of an automobile industrial cluster must be based on the expectations of the enterprises...

This study is conducted to assess the Lean performances of 10 Vietnamese manufacturing companies in terms of 13 factors proposed by Hirano (2009). Managers of 6 large companies and 4 small and medium ones are invited to participate in semi-structured interviews to assess their own company’s Lean performances and raise the ideas for their assessment...

This study questions the impact of cultural differences on Apple Inc. brand community in three countries: Sweden, Taiwan and Vietnam. On the basis of quantitative and qualitative research, two component factors of brand community are assessed: brand loyalty and psychological attachment to brand community. While the Taiwanese highly evaluate the rol...

Iconic brand is a new topic in the field of branding that has started to attract researchers’ attentions; yet, it is still mostly discussed in the non-academic field. Brand community is also an evolving topic in marketing. These two new concepts are the focuses of this research. The main subject of this research is to explore the componential fact...

Although finance has been studied for thousands years, behavioral finance which considers the human behaviors in finance is a quite new area. Behavioral finance theories, which are based on the psychology, attempt to understand how emotions and cognitive errors influence individual investors’ behaviors (investors mentioned in this study are refered...
