TL;DR: In this paper , an interpretive structural modeling (ISM) model is developed to investigate the critical success factors (CSF) and the extent of CSF's influence in the implementation of lean industry 4.0 in manufacturing supply chain.
Abstract: PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to develop an interpretive structural modeling (ISM) model to investigate the critical success factors (CSF) and the extent of CSF's influence in the implementation of lean industry 4.0 in manufacturing supply chain.Design/methodology/approachThe study has been carried out with the help of the latest literature followed by brainstorming sessions with experts. The experts were the managers from the industries, assistant professors, and research scholars from academia working in this domain. Finally, a structured model is formed using ISM methodology for the analysis of the CSFs followed by matrice d'impacts croisés multiplication appliquée á un classment (MIAMAC) Analysis for the validation of the model.FindingsThe study identifies robotics, virtual and augmented reality and cloud computing as the main CSFs which are responsible to drive all the identified CSFs. However the CSF professional training and development (PTD) has been identified as the weakest driver but having the highest dependent power.Research limitations/implicationsThe study has included nine CSFs and the contextual relationships between the CSFs are based on the knowledge and experience of the experts, which may be biased. Moreover, the paper has covered the ISM approach, and the same thing can be validated using the fuzzy-ISM and other multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques.Originality/valueThis investigation of the CSFs in the lean industry 4.0 is original and the identified CSFs are the result of the literature reviews and an extensive discussion from the experts. The paper uses the complete experience of the respective experts to make this work more effective and original.

TL;DR: To achieve the service oriented architecture (SOA) based solution for industry, OPC UA standard used to develop the proposed system and results revealed that separation process performance can be shown in production dashboard.
Abstract: Tapioca starch is the important for Thai agricultural industry economy. According to the 4th industrial revolution, cyber-physical system becomes the key technology to enable vertical and horizontal automation system integration. This study aims to develop cyber-physical system based production monitoring for tapioca starch production. To achieve the service oriented architecture (SOA) based solution for industry, OPC UA standard used to develop the proposed system. The proposed CPS provided services involved production monitoring including production information management system associated with laboratory information management system. This system was selected due to the variation of raw material and process model for estimation of unknown parameters. The experiments were done with performance monitoring of separation process of 250 ton/day capacity plant. The results revealed that separation process performance can be shown in production dashboard.

TL;DR: A metamodel that can be used as target model for planning endeavors and a planning process that helps as guideline for such planning projects are developed.
Abstract: Industry 4.0 changes the manufacturing industry significantly. In order to stay competitive, companies need to develop new business capabilities and business models that are enabled by Industry 4.0 concepts. However, companies are currently struggling with expensive and risky IT transformation projects that are needed to implement such concepts. We observed a lack of research on the planning and modeling part of IT transformations towards Industry 4.0. Therefore, we conducted a series of expert interviews on the topic of enterprise architecture in the context of modeling and planning Industry 4.0 transformations. As a result, we were able to develop a metamodel that can be used as target model for planning endeavors and a planning process that helps as guideline for such planning projects.

TL;DR: In this paper, the theoretical frame of corporate sustainability and the effect of digital transformation on corporate sustainability have been evaluated, and then, constructing sustainable digital business models and focusing on value proposal have been discussed.
Abstract: With its high process automation and digitalization, Industry 4.0 provides new opportunities to actualize more flexible, higher quality, speedy, cheap, and productive manufacturing and services. Containing numerous technology and paradigms, Industry 4.0 is expected to transform the industrial manufacture and society by aiming at economic, social, and environmental gains. The facts that natural resources are running out, lifecycle of the world is diminishing, and society has increasing anxiety on this situation. These have been the propulsive power for the development of Industry 4.0. By means of the technology and innovations that Industry 4.0 brings along, it is clear that it could also contribute to the recent popular and emphasized concept:sustainability. In this chapter, after giving information about the paradigms related with Industry 4.0, the theoretical frame of corporate sustainability and the effect of digital transformation on corporate sustainability have been evaluated. And then, constructing sustainable digital business models and focusing on value proposal have been discussed.

TL;DR: Porter's concept of the value chain disaggregates a company into "activities", or the discrete functions or processes that represent the elemental building blocks of competitive advantage as discussed by the authors, has become an essential part of international business thinking, taking strategy from broad vision to an internally consistent configuration of activities.
Abstract: COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE introduces a whole new way of understanding what a firm does. Porter's groundbreaking concept of the value chain disaggregates a company into 'activities', or the discrete functions or processes that represent the elemental building blocks of competitive advantage. Now an essential part of international business thinking, COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE takes strategy from broad vision to an internally consistent configuration of activities. Its powerful framework provides the tools to understand the drivers of cost and a company's relative cost position. Porter's value chain enables managers to isolate the underlying sources of buyer value that will command a premium price, and the reasons why one product or service substitutes for another. He shows how competitive advantage lies not only in activities themselves but in the way activities relate to each other, to supplier activities, and to customer activities. That the phrases 'competitive advantage' and 'sustainable competitive advantage' have become commonplace is testimony to the power of Porter's ideas. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE has guided countless companies, business school students, and scholars in understanding the roots of competition. Porter's work captures the extraordinary complexity of competition in a way that makes strategy both concrete and actionable.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a framework to position sustainable entrepreneurship in relation to sustainability innovation, which is based on a typology of sustainable entrepreneurship, including social and institutional entrepreneurship.
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to propose a framework to position sustainable entrepreneurship in relation to sustainability innovation. The framework builds on a typology of sustainable entrepreneurship, develops it by including social and institutional entrepreneurship, i.e. the application of the entrepreneurial approach towards meeting societal goals and towards changing market contexts, and relates it to sustainability innovation. The framework provides a reference for managers to introduce sustainability innovation and to pursue sustainable entrepreneurship. Methodologically, the paper develops an approach of qualitative measurement of sustainable entrepreneurship and how to assess the position of a company in a classification matrix. The degree of environmental or social responsibility orientation in the company is assessed on the basis of environmental and social goals and policies, the organization of environmental and social management in the company and the communication of environmental and social issues. The market impact of the company is measured on the basis of market share, sales growth and reactions of competitors. The paper finds conditions under which sustainable entrepreneurship and sustainability innovation emerge spontaneously. The research has implications for theory and practitioners in that it clarifies which firms are most likely under specific conditions to make moves towards sustainability innovation. The paper makes a contribution in showing that extant research needs to be expanded with regard to motivations for innovation and that earlier models of sustainable entrepreneurship need to be refined.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a historical view of the motivations and means for pursuing industrial symbiosis, defined to include physical exchanges of materials, energy, water, and by-products among diversified clusters of firms.
Abstract: Summary Since 1989, efforts to understand the nature of interfirm resource sharing in the form of industrial symbiosis and to replicate in a deliberate way what was largely self-organizing in Kalundborg, Denmark have followed many paths, some with much success and some with very little. This article provides a historical view of the motivations and means for pursuing industrial symbiosis—defined to include physical exchanges of materials, energy, water, and by-products among diversified clusters of firms. It finds that “uncovering” existing symbioses has led to more sustainable industrial development than attempts to design and build eco-industrial parks incorporating physical exchanges. By examining 15 proposed projects brought to national and international attention by the U.S. President’s Council on Sustainable Development beginning in the early 1990s, and contrasting these with another 12 projects observed to share more elements of self-organization, recommendations are offered to stimulate the identification and uncovering of already existing “kernels” of symbiosis. In addition, policies and practices are suggested to identify early-stage precursors of potentially larger symbioses that can be nurtured and developed further. The article concludes that environmentally and economically desirable symbiotic exchanges are all around us and now we must shift our gaze to find and foster them.
