Abstract Paper aims Apply a framework for characterizing a product-service system (PSS) from a life cycle and sustainability perspective. Originality Although the literature on the topic has evolved, there is still limited practical guidance on how to characterize a PSS. The paper contributes by applying a framework in PSS types. Research method A proposed conceptual framework was applied to characterize a PSS. This framework was assessed by experts, from which responses were statistically analyzed. Then, it was applied in three PSS types (bike sharing, water purifier rental, and car sharing). Main findings The initial result is the consolidation of the framework through statistical analysis. Then, its application in the three PSS types was able to spot the stages of the life cycle that each PSS focuses on most. Specifically for the water purifier, the most focused steps were ‘development’ and ‘implementation’, demonstrating efficient strategic planning and a commitment to meeting customer needs. Implications for theory and practice This study contributes to calls for more research and guidance into the PSS application. From a practical perspective, it may support product and systems designers by shedding light on the conceptual elements of PSS offerings.

Abstract Paper aims This research establishes a method to evaluate a concurrent production system in parallel, through new operating curves of six sigma metrics. Originality Se proposes a novel method that provides criteria to monitor the performance of a production system in changing production conditions. Research method This research was approached from a logical positivist epistemological model, through a heuristic analysis and with a rational propositional approach to establish the characterization of the model, the evaluation metrics and propose the new operation curves. Main findings The results obtained show that as the sigma level increases in the global system (4.17), the level of defects per million opportunities decreases considerably and the performance increases at levels close to the main objective of Six Sigma, all this with a decrease of defects from 20.657 to 1.317, generating a high quality of 99.99% and achieving a good performance according to the established quality criteria. Implications for theory and practice This research provides a new tool where they articulate concepts of six sigma and operating curves to monitor a productive system, which allows in a practical way to determine the real capabilities in terms of quality performance of a system.

Abstract Paper aims This study is grounded in the supply chain resilience (SCRES) capabilities literature and the dynamic capabilities theory (DCT), which is used to develop a framework of dynamic SCRES capabilities for global supply chain disruptions. Originality This study explores firms' adapting, responding, and learning capabilities in the initial outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic 2019 (COVID-19) in the Irish context. Research method The research methodology was based on semi-structured interviews with supply chain leaders of international operations, extending between Ireland and the UK. Data analysis utilises a hybrid thematic analysis approach that integrates inductive codes with deductive priori-driven constructs. Main findings Five significant impacts of COVID-19 on supply chain operations are revealed: capacity and resource constraints, supply issues, demand spikes, supply chain skills shortages, and human resource factors. Furthermore, firms' high-order SCRES capabilities during a pandemic are related to their adaptation, response, and learning capabilities. Operational capabilities and resilience practices support these high-order capabilities. However, the empirical evidence indicates that resilience practices overlap across SCRES capabilities. Implications for theory and practice The connection between SCRES and dynamic capabilities is emphasized by demonstrating that operational capabilities and resilience practices are integral building blocks of high-order SCRES capabilities. We distinguish between dynamic and operational capabilities and present an integrative framework to elaborate the theory of dynamic SCRES capabilities. Moreover, valuable insights into developing dynamic SCRES capabilities are highlighted by adapting to changes, seizing opportunities, coordinating tasks, and engaging in learning routines in response to a pandemic disruption. Firms that harness SCRES elements and practices to enhance their adaptability, response, and learning capabilities share similarities with the dynamic capabilities processes of adapting & seizing, coordinating, and learning.

Abstract Paper aims This research proposes a tool for assessing supply risk, taking into account supply chain performance criteria. Originality The results show that risk management can contribute to better supply chain performance when supplier selection procedures consider the risks involved and how they are related to supply chain performance criteria. Research method A systematic literature review (SLR) was carried out on supplier selection, performance evaluation and risk management in the supply chain. The statistical tool IRT (Item Response Theory) was used to establish the level of difficulty in eliminating the types of risks identified and associated with the supply chain performance criteria, based on the probability of each situation occurring. Main findings With this scale, it is possible to identify which types of risk and performance criteria are most difficult for suppliers to meet and then define a plan for mitigating the risks that are harder to eliminate. Implications for theory and practice Based on the tool developed, organizations have greater understanding of how risks affect the performance of their supply chain and with that knowledge they can act to minimize the effects of the risks that are most difficult to eliminate.

Abstract Paper aims The purpose of this paper is to applied systematically Lean Healthcare to improve mobility accessibility in the medical clinic ward of a medium-sized hospital. Originality The study focuses on the wheelchair’s availability, as well as their provisions in the hospital, since this approach was not identified in the literature. In addition, this study is part of a branch of a project, based on the non-identification of applications in the medical clinic ward of hospitals, in order to formalize a systematic application of Lean Healthcare in the wing worked. Research method The study's methodology was divided into two phases, Survey and Lean Proposal, following a systematic approach established in prior papers, with a focus on addressing various hospital waste scenarios that affect patient mobility. The Survey phase aimed to identify the root cause of waste related to wheelchair use within the hospital, while the Lean Proposal phase sought to mitigate this waste using Lean tools, ultimately improving patient mobility in the medical clinic by reducing non-added value. Main findings The implementation of systematically Lean Healthcare led to a 72.2% reduction in the total activity time, dropping from 20 to 7 minutes, primarily by cutting non-value-added time from 18 to 5 minutes. This change increased the value-added time by 19%. Additionally, the unnecessary movement to retrieve wheelchairs decreased by 83%, with occurrences reducing by 100%. Furthermore, Lean Healthcare improved mobility and demonstrates how this effective approach not only enhanced the quality of medical services but also created a more favorable work environment and inspired a culture of continuous improvement within the hospital. Implications for theory and practice For the theory, this research highlights a hospital wing previously unexamined within the context of Lean Healthcare, thereby reinforcing a culture of systematic application and continuous improvement within the hospital. Furthermore, it delves into the hospital's accessibility, specifically focusing on mobility accessibility, addressing a gap in the literature. In practice, the research has significant implications, as it effectively reduces non-added value elements within an actual process in a medium-sized hospital, ultimately enhancing the quality of clinical healthcare delivery in the Brazilian public healthcare system.

Abstract Paper aims to propose the development of a Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) diagnostic tool to assess the degree of implementation in the textile sector. Originality the delivery of a set of issues, with levels of maturity and visual management, allows for benchmarking and the identification of strengths and weaknesses, not only internally but also externally. Also, the comparison with other companies and the diagnosis of the integration of the internal sectors of a company around a shared vision of demand and delivery of goods to reduce the gaps between industrial and commercial areas. The tool developed compiles a set of questions to implement S&OP, such as integration between areas, the use of software, leftover raw materials, and finished products, the degree of assertiveness of consumer demand, and other criteria. Thus, it is possible to compare each company and make improvements. Research method the diagnostic tool was developed from proposals for other sectors, and a survey was later carried out with 16 textile companies to validate the developed tool. Eleven questions were developed with five levels of answers – from the basic to the advanced level. Main findings We created a ranking of the level of S&OP implementation in companies, contributing to the advancement of the maturity of the entire sector. The implementation in companies resulted in improved communication, reduced barriers between areas, and increased engagement of teams in the sales process and delivery of goods – factors that contribute to the success of key performance indicators (KPIs). Implications for theory and practice the initial gamble level of the production of goods following the forecast of demand in the textile companies in Brazil is, on average, 30%, which is worrying since this indicates low assertiveness. Thus, this study contributes to the evolution of the theme by structuring a diagnostic tool for managers with a deployment of more assertive strategies and communication. The analysis of theoretical work in various sectors allowed a comparison with practical results obtained in the textile sector. Furthermore, the tool serves as a guide to achieve the results demonstrated in the literature, such as increased profits and delivery accuracy, improved planning, and integration between areas, which directly lead to a more pleasant work environment.

Abstract Paper aims The objective of this work is to develop a comprehensive group decision model to support public managers in choosing the best location for the construction of landfills based on a strategy known as “regionalization” (collaborative construction of landfills). Originality The proposed group decision model innovates when considering the regionalization strategy in a multi-DM environment based on a framework for choosing a voting procedure. Research method The model is divided into three stages: (i) individual assessment of preferences; (ii) choosing a voting procedure; and, (iii) group aggregation and recommendation. First, it uses MCDA/M to elicit DMs' preferences and obtain individual rankings; then, a framework for choosing a voting procedure (VP) to aggregate individual preferences and obtain a collective choice. Main findings The main findings indicate that the proposed model that uses PHOMETHEE-ROC and a VP proposes a recommendation that is of everyone’s interest in the presented multi-DM landfill site selection problem presenting its feasibility and applicability. Implications for theory and practice It encourages public managers to use a formal approach to make a comprehensive analysis of solid waste management practices.

Abstract Paper aims This study investigates the nanostores' endurance in serving underserved regions in developing countries. The research explores how various competing retail formats influence market choice and demand. We used data from a survey conducted in Sabana Centro, Colombia, in this study. Originality We believe this is the first study examining the nanostores' resilience in serving emerging markets under this novel hybrid technique. Research method We propose a multi-agent-based model mimicking nanostore survival and resilience in a competitive market. Household agents use a discrete choice model to select their preferred retail format for household purchases based on location, price, and service levels. Considering supply breakdowns, we tested the outcoming model under different disruption scenarios. Main findings Results indicated nanostores' great resiliency in competitive markets, specifically in peripheral areas, which are usually neglected by other retail formats. This suggests that this retail format can strategically complement household supply in underserved areas, displaying the importance of supporting these channels and generating tools that improve their performance in the market. Implications for theory and practice Theoretically, we aim to improve the understanding of households' decision-making process when buying food. Practically, a multi-agent-based model simulating end customers and sellers offers insights into future interventions and their impacts on the retail landscape and various supply chain stakeholders.

Abstract Paper aims This paper proposes a warehouse design framework for evaluating the most robust combination of layout alternatives, tactical (picking, storage) and operational (routing) control policies, considering simultaneously the service level, costs and resource utilization criteria. Originality We applied an innovative Morphological Analysis to reduce the number of alternatives and evaluate the uncertainties in warehouse design. We also address the effect of congestion and options for configuring the layout of aisles. Research method We apply multicriteria decision analysis and discrete event simulation to evaluate the most robust combination between layout alternatives and operational control policies. We also suggest the use of scenario planning to deal with the high uncertainties involved in the order picking activity. Main findings Our framework captures the warehouse manager’s preference and experience by means of weight elicitation, value functions, scenario planning and an inter-scenario robustness index to provide a robust final solution. Implications for theory and practice For theory, we highlight the combination of methods applied to a strategic, tactical and operational warehouse design problem in an environment with uncertainties. For practice, warehouse managers may use the framework to explore and find out which combination of control policies and layout can meet the company’s objectives.
