- W3048102334 abstract "In the last years, together with the proliferation of quality and safety standards, the global trade of perishable products has dealt with the increasing concern of costumers on credence attributes (e.g. quality, safety, sustainability, fair trade, etc.). Consequently, supply chain actors claim for a higher compliance with such standards, as well as, for a major information disclosure on the products’ journey. From their side, researchers are called to develop sustainable solutions to handle products perishability, in order to support managers during the daily operations. Quality and safety of perishable products are affected both by the logistics operations and by the environmental conditions experienced along the supply chain. Due to the seasonality in the weather conditions, the realization of effective temperature-controlled storage and distribution operations is the most important driver to control the quality degradation and the safety decay of perishable products. However, the realization of cold chains is highly energy-intensive, negatively affecting the environmental impact of perishable products supply chains (PPSC). The new advance in IT and in traceability systems represent an opportunity for companies to implement effective cold chains, while addressing to the customer’s demand for transparency. However, although the recognized importance of information sharing for the supply chain coordination and integration, the openness toward always more global markets and the distrust of companies to share strategic information limit the collaboration among supply chain actors. Moreover, always more often companies decide to entrust the transportation and storage processes to 3PL providers, which deal with several clients and a high variety of products. Aim of this dissertation is proposing innovative methods, models and tools aided to improve the overall performance along the supply chains for perishables products. Beyond the efficiency of the supply chain operations, the definition of ‘performance’ assumes other three dimensions: quality, safety and sustainability. The research elaborates on two research questions that narrow down the set of potential approaches to the problem to the improvement of the overall performance of perishable products distribution network and of storage operations. The research activity is developed according to a research framework, where the research questions are addressed by research levers, that are explored according to research topics. Each topic requires a specific methodology, however the overarching methodological approach presented in this dissertation includes four fundamental aspects: the minimization of the level of approximation of data in input, the use of case-study deriving from real-world instances, the use of simulation to study complex systems through their model and the role of data visualization. Initially, this dissertation depicts the state-of-the-art of the current industrial practice in PPSC and identifies the main research trends over the last decade. The following two chapters illustrate the research activity. The first focus on the development of logistics solutions for the management of the flows of goods among the supply chain actors, and the second narrow down the research focus to the warehousing systems located within PPSC and particularly to the warehouse operations. The explored research topics lead to theoretical, methodological and practical contributions." @default.
