TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the relationship between efficient supply chain management and innovation of firms using archival financial statement information and patent citation data for firms in the manufacturing sector, over a 10-year period from 1987 to 1996.
Abstract: This paper illustrates the use of secondary data for operations and supply chain management research by investigating the association between efficient supply chain management and innovation of firms. An empirical inquiry is conducted using archival financial statement information and patent citation data for firms in the manufacturing sector, over a 10-year period from 1987 to 1996. Longitudinal analysis, focusing on the influence of efficient supply chain management on a firm’s innovation over time, is conducted. Results and limitations are discussed along with a summary of steps, which may be followed when using secondary data for operations and supply chain management research.

TL;DR: Value reengineering is a new approach for how a company can systematically implement breakthrough solutions for its customers as mentioned in this paper, where the key is finding the right value offering point in the customer:s demand chain.
Abstract: It is evident from examples such as Dell that successful shapers of the supply chain really do change the game, but how can your company do it? Value reengineering is a new approach for how a company can systematically implement breakthrough solutions for its customers. The key is finding the right value offering point in the customer:s demand chain. A company can then carve‐out a new business model that offers better value to the customer in a way that also helps lower costs.
