    An integrated decision support system for strategic supply chain optimisation in process industries: the case of a zinc company

    Language: English

    Description: We introduce a menu-driven user-friendly decision support system (DSS) for supply chain planning based on optimisation. The DSS is based on a multi-source (supplier), multi-destination (warehouse) network having multiple manufacturing facilities, with multiple materials and multiple storage areas. This integrated supply chain model performs multiple period planning. The use of this DSS requires little knowledge of management sciences tools. We discuss the need for an integrated approach towards supply chain modelling for the process industry. We present the integrated model in the form of a database structure. We validate the model with the real data of a zinc company and demonstrate the impact of optimisation in terms of percentage improvement. The result shows that it is possible to improve unit contribution to profit from 1.89 to 4.66%.

    Spirituality and religiosity at the junction of consumerism: Exploring consumer preference for spiritual brands
    2018
    ISSN: 1470-6423 
    Details
    Language: English
    In: International journal of consumer studies, 2018-11, Vol.42 (6), p.724-735
    Description: This paper extends the growing research on the influence of religion and spiritualism on consumer behaviour by exploring the relationship between spirituality and religiosity (intrinsic vs. extrinsic) as well as their effects on consumers’ purchase of Fast Moving Consumer Goods brands promoted by spiritual leaders (spiritual brands). Results from an online survey of 238 Indian consumers across four food product categories (honey, cheese, biscuits and cooking oil) shows that both intrinsic and extrinsic religiosity have significant positive effects, but spirituality has no significant effect on the purchase of spiritual brands. We discuss the theoretical and managerial implications of these findings as well as some limitations of our study and useful directions for future research.

    Drivers Enabling Value Co-creation: A Study of Select IT-services Outsourcing Firms (Client vis-à-vis Service Provider)
    2016
    ISSN: 2394-9643 
    Details
    Language: English
    In: Journal of creating value, 2016-11, Vol.2 (2), p.176-193
    Description: Abstract The phenomenon of value creation is witnessing a shift towards value co-creation, particularly in collaborative relationship. This study explores and prioritizes drivers enabling value co-creation from the perspectives of client and service provider in the context of IT-services outsourcing. An extensive literature review and subsequent pilot study suggest six probable value drivers that are further, statistically validated and prioritized. The unit of analysis is front-line professionals, working with either party. A web-based survey was administered to collect data from 256 respondents, drawn using judgemental sampling. Strategic Intent and Service Actualization are found to be significant and common value drivers for both parties (client and service provider), though with different priorities. The other significant value drivers are found to be Collective Capabilities for client and Intrapreneurship for service provider (these value drivers are not common to the client and service provider). This study reiterates and crystallizes the understanding of value co-creation process in the context of IT-services outsourcing. The identified drivers would enable practitioners to understand and to reconcile the drivers for client(s) and service provider(s) in order to realize the respective value outcome. The commonality of two value drivers; strategic intent and service actualization for both clients and service providers indicates the opportunity for co-creation of value.

    Sensitivity of Traffic Demand to Fare Rationalisation: The Case of Delhi's Airport Metro Express Link
    2018
    ISSN: 0012-9976 
    Details
    Language: English
    In: Economic and political weekly, 2018-12-15
    Description: According to the information available in the public domain, the line was running at less than 5% of its capacity and incurring operational losses.4 The operating ratio was around 2.7 (Dutta 2015). The functional form chosen was linear as it helped us in tracking how the price elasticity of traffic demand changed every month in this period. Since the capacity utilisation was quite low, it would be fair to assume that the AMEL network had been demand-constrained in this period. [...]we used the corrected standard errors to take care of these. [...]one could argue that the fare rationalisation experiment carried out on the AMEL could have wider implications for other public transportation projects.

    Innovation and Culture as a Dynamic Capability for Firm Performance: A Study from Emerging Markets
    2019
    ISSN: 0972-2696 
    Details
    Language: English
    In: Global journal of flexible systems management, 2019-12, Vol.20 (4), p.323-336
    Description: The research aimed to assess the influence of multiple dimensions of innovation on performance. The research is motivated from the possible impact of the internal organizational factors on the firm performance. We investigate the effect of dynamic capabilities such as product innovation, process innovation, and innovation culture on the firm performance. We collect a sample of 115 respondents and unique primary data from the executives of Indian firms. Established scales were used to design the survey instrument. A measurement model was developed in AMOS to conduct the confirmatory factor analysis and validate the scale again. A path model was developed to test the hypotheses. We find support for process innovation but not for product innovation and innovation culture. We extend the analysis further to understand whether the size of the firms has differences in the results. We find further support for innovation culture in large-size firms. We discuss the results in the Indian context to substantiate our hypotheses.

    SJOGREN’S THEOREM FOR DIMENSION SUBGROUPS – THE METABELIAN CASE

    Description: Let ZG be the integral group ring of a group G, Δ(G) its augmentation ideal and Dk(G) = G ∩ (1 + Δk(G)), the k-th dimension subgroup of G. For all k ≥ 1, Dk(G) ≥γ k(G), the k-th term of the lower central series of G. Rips [6] has constructed a finite 2-group G such that D4(G) ≠γ 4(G). A remarkable result due to Sjogren [7] states that for each n ≥ 1, there exists an n!-number Cn(i.e. the primary decomposition uses only those primes which divide n!) such that for all G, Dn+2(G)/γ n+2(G) has exponent dividing Cn.
