Switch-off policies in job-shop systems including energy price variability Pages 1277-1288 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Paolo Renna

DOI: 10.5267/j.ijiec.2025.6.002

Keywords: Switch-off, Energy price, Sustainability, Job-shop, Multi-agent, Simulation

Abstract:
The switch-off approach is one of the practices that supports sustainable manufacturing systems by reducing energy consumption. Manufacturing systems are characterized by two sources of fluctuations: workload due to customer demand and energy price variability. This work proposes a switch-off policy that addresses these fluctuations in job-shop systems using multi-agent architecture. The proposed approach is tested through simulation models and compared to benchmarks in the literature as well as scenarios without a switch-off policy. The performance indices evaluated include throughput, average time in the system, standard deviation of average time in the system, work in process, average maximum items in queues, total waiting time for machines, and total energy costs under different scenarios. The numerical results highlight that the switch-off policy, when considering energy prices and a combination of direct and indirect workload, achieves significant energy savings with minimal degradation of manufacturing performance. These results are particularly relevant under dynamic working conditions of the manufacturing system.

Evolutions of sustainable supply chain management in emerging economies: A literature review Pages 201-218 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Ephrem Negash Shebeshe, Dhiraj Sharma

DOI: 10.5267/j.msl.2024.3.003

Keywords: Sustainable Supply Chain Management, Supply Chain Management, Sustainability, Green Supply Chain Management, Sustainable Production

Abstract:
The escalating demand for items and their consumption has exerted immense pressure on industrial production and supply chain systems, leading to adverse environmental and societal consequences. The rise in pollution rates and ecological disasters resulting from industrial production has prompted numerous scholars and industry specialists to focus on Sustainable Production and Consumption matters within the framework of Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM). The interest in sustainable supply chain management has significantly increased in recent years, spanning both business and academic sectors. This phenomenon is seen in the growing prevalence of papers, conferences, specialized periodicals, and websites exclusively focused on the subject matter. Nevertheless, the importance of sustainable development in developing economies has only just started to be acknowledged. This literature review aims to assess existing research on sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) in developing nations while considering a worldwide perspective. This paper thoroughly examines the rapid expansion of the subject from an evolutionary perspective; aimed at comprehending the progression of sustainability concerns by examining patterns across different industries, and economies, and employing diverse approaches. An extensive thematic analysis was conducted on 56 selected publications published between 2010 and 2023, emphasizing the growth and significance of the knowledge base. The analysis is conducted utilizing a descriptive and content-oriented methodology. Subsequently, the results are presented, demonstrating an increasing interest in Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM). Nevertheless, there is a conspicuous discrepancy in the extent of research carried out on this subject in emerging economies as opposed to industrialized ones. The findings indicate that the context in less developed countries plays a crucial role in carrying out empirical or case study research. Moreover, it is crucial to analyze how the integration of the three dimensions of sustainability impacts the efficiency of the supply chain, especially when considering the perspective of an emerging economy. Hence, the limitations of this investigation are delineated. Ultimately, it is crucial to do further research from multiple angles within the supply chain, encompassing collaboration, sustainable practices, innovation, sourcing, and supplier growth, with a special emphasis on the position and background of rising countries.

A hybrid BWM–TOPSIS approach for preferencing evaluation of sustainable and conventional products Pages 931-942 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Murtadha Aldoukhi

DOI: 10.5267/j.dsl.2025.7.005

Keywords: MCDM, Sustainability, Remanufactured Products, BWM, TOPSIS

Abstract:
In recent years, governments have sought to find sustainable solutions that would have a positive impact economically, environmentally, and socially. Remanufacturing is a promising solution as remanufactured products help sustainability by saving resources, like using less raw materials, cutting emissions from traditional manufacturing, lowering the amount of landfill waste, and offering a cost-effective alternative product. This paper studies the preferences of people in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between new and remanufactured products across three categories: electronics, car parts, and furniture. The products were evaluated based on four factors: quality, price, availability, and warranty. This research used the Best-Worst Method and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution together for the analysis. For all the product categories, the findings showed that warranty is the most weighted criteria consumers will rely on to select between the new and remanufactured products. However, consumers prefer new products over the remanufactured ones for all the product categories. Supply chain decision-makers are required to optimize the pricing of these products to increase the popularity of these products.

Sustainability of community-based mangrove ecotourism in Bali, Indonesia Pages 699-706 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Made Kembar Sri Budhi, I Nyoman Mahaendra Yasa, Ida Ayu Nyoman Saskara, Ni Putu Nina Eka Lestari, Ni Nyoman Reni Suasih, Ni Komang Ayu Rustini, Ni Luh Tesi Riani

DOI: 10.5267/j.dsl.2025.3.010

Keywords: Ecotourism, Mangrove forest, Community participation, Mangrove-based product, Sustainability

Abstract:
Bali is a world tourist destination that is famous for having various types of interesting maritime tourism, including mangrove areas which are typical of equatorial regions. The purpose of this study is to develop a model that can predict the sustainability of ecotourism in the mangrove area in Bali based on the approach of empowering local potential and empowering the community. Data analysis was carried out using Bayesian Network analysis, where input was based on the results of the FGD. The results show high probability of realizing the sustainability of ecotourism, where the most influential variables are community participation and local product developers or mangrove-based products. In addition, the condition of the mangrove forest also needs attention, considering that the sustainability of mangrove ecotourism is very sensitive to changes in the condition of the mangrove forest. The three main variables have reflected the combination of the three elements of sustainability, namely people-social (community participation), planet-environment (mangrove forest condition), and profit-economic (developing of mangrove-based products). Mangrove ecotourism development in Bali should be focused on increasing community participation and the development of mangrove-based products.

Effectuation control: Modified management control system for sustainability in facing the uncertainty Pages 339-350 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Setyarini Santosa, Tubagus Ismail, Imam Abu Hanifah, Munawar Muchlis

DOI: 10.5267/j.dsl.2025.1.004

Keywords: Result control, Action control, management control system, Prospectors, Sustainability, Uncertainty

Abstract:
This study fills the research gap on the existence of joint control in management control systems—the object-oriented control framework (MCS-OOC)—by focusing on the interaction between results and action control, especially in companies that employ prospector strategies that were not considered in previous studies. This study aims to investigate the functioning of joint control by introducing a novel construct known as effectuation control, which forms effectuation MCS. Effectuation control is the synergistic, complementary, and simultaneous effects of a special relationship between action control and result controls. This study will contribute to the understanding of the dynamics of MCS or the control tightness of MCS-OOC. The Effectuation MCS model modifies the MCS-OOC model to account for uncertainty factors, thereby leveraging its capabilities to ensure the long-term sustainability of the company. In terms of methodology, this research will employ two initial models and two modified models, one for each of the prospector and non-prospector manufacturing companies. By comparing these four models and investigating several hypotheses using SEM-PLS, the results demonstrate that result control is no more significant toward existing capabilities when effectuation control is included in the model. Effectuation control significantly influences existing capabilities, whereas result control significantly influences new capabilities. In times of uncertainty and unpredictability, prospectors who implement a pay-for-performance system (result control) in conjunction with the implementation of sound policies, rules, procedures, and bureaucracy (action control) can leverage the company's existing capabilities and explore new ones, thereby enhancing its performance both now and in the future. Action control, a component of effectuation control, serves as a buffer against complex and confusing situations arising from high uncertainty, as every employee responds and refers to the same guidance, policies, rules, and procedures. On the other hand, result control serves as a buffer as well as a driving force, leveraging its capabilities to discover new capabilities amidst uncertainty with the aim of achieving breakthroughs, leading the market, and maintaining sustainability. This result is relevant only to prospectors, as they possess the ability to quickly adapt to uncertainty and seize opportunities presented by these changes, a trait that non-prospectors lack.

Measuring sustainability performance with SWARA-MEREC-COBRA multi-criteria model: A case study of Anadolu insurance company Pages 829-844 Right click to download the paper Download PDF

Authors: Mehmet Zafer Taşci

DOI: 10.5267/j.dsl.2024.8.008

Keywords: Sustainability, Insurance Company, SWARA, MEREC, COBRA

Abstract:
The aim of this study is to assess and rank Anadolu Sigorta Company's sustainability performance between 2018 and 2022 using the hybrid SWARA-MEREC-COBRA model. The sustainability performance evaluation criteria's importance weights were determined using both subjective and objective methods. The SWARA algorithm was used to determine the weights subjectively based on expert opinion, while the MEREC algorithm was used to determine them objectively. The final importance weights were obtained by combining the results of both methods. When evaluating the sustainability performance of Anadolu Sigorta Company, the most important criterion was total paper consumption, while the criterion with the least impact was the number of female employees. The COBRA ranking algorithm was used to rank the alternatives, and it was determined that the company's best sustainability performance was in 2022, while the worst was in 2018. Different sensitivity analyses were used to test the consistency of the proposed model.
