    Loss Prevention in Transportation to Ensure Product Quality. Insights from the Cargo Insurance Sector
    (2011) Skorna, Alexander; Hinz, Andreas [in: International Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems (APMS)]
    Transport and logistics operations are vulnerable to many types of risks due to an increasing dynamic and structural complexity of today's supply chain networks. Globally distributed sourcing and production lead to more transported goods in general but also to more high-value cargoes being shipped around the world. However, detailed information about the transport condition and integrity are not available in the end-to-end chain as logistics operations lack full transparency. Therefore, this paper identifies causes and risks of cargo-related losses by an analysis of cargo insurance claims. Based on these results, appropriate preventive measures to monitor and improve the product quality during logistics operations are derived.

    Making use of dynamic capabilities to address the sustainability challenge
    (2011) Hinz, Andreas; Boks, Casper; Scherrer-Rathje, Maike; Skorna, Alexander; Schneider, Anselm [in: International Conference on Advances in Production Management Systems (APMS)]
    Manufacturing firms are increasingly exposed to pressures coming from the sustainability challenge. A thorough understanding of these drivers is important in order for firms to be able to react to the sustainability challenge. Since the sustainability challenge creates dynamic market conditions, dynamic capabilities are believed to be a key for firms in dealing with that dynamism. Knowledge-related dynamic capabilities appear to be particularly important in supporting firms to find solutions to the challenge. However, to the best of our knowledge, empirical evidence is rather limited so far. Therefore, it is the goal of this paper to examine these drivers and assess dynamic capabilities in the light of the sustainability challenge. Four case studies with multinational manufacturing firms provide empirical findings.
