Industry 4.0 as an enabler of proximity for construction supply chains: A systematic literature review
TL;DR: It is found that Industry 4.0 technologies mainly influence technological, organizational, geographical and cognitive proximity dimensions, which presents benefits and challenges for CSCs.
The scope of supply chain management research
TL;DR: An expanded scope for supply chain management research is advocated in this paper, which accounts for the social function and the political and economic implications of supply chain developments, arguing that the research agenda must not be driven by the notion of efficiency alone, but should also be developed around the concept of the just supply chain.
