As awareness of environmental protection increases worldwide, enterprises have been building their supply chains in ways that conserve natural resources and minimize the creation of pollutants. One of the practical ways to make supply chains more sustainable is for enterprises to utilize green innovation strategies and to increase resource reuse. In this work, we focus on a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) consisting of a manufacturer, a retailer, and a collector. In the investigated CLSC, the manufacturer and the retailer drive the green innovation strategy either individually or simultaneously to boost market demand. In the reverse flow of the CLSC, the collector is responsible for collecting consumers’ used products and transferring them to the manufacturer for remanufacturing. By combining two types of the market leadership and three types of green innovation strategies, we establish six different Stackelberg game models and solve them analytically. Through an extensive comparative analysis, we show who should have market leadership and who should drive the green innovation strategy in the CLSC. Various numerical examples are also given to support our major findings. One of our key findings suggests that the supply chain members must participate in green innovation activities at the same time to achieve a win-win scenario in the CLSC.

Innovation is a strategic issue in need of internal and external alignment. This is particularly the case for supplier innovations, as new product concepts and strategies must cope with supply chain interfaces. Suppliers' strategies are oftentimes confronted by innovation rigidities resulting from a manufacturers' need to manage the integration of several components from various suppliers into a coherent innovation. Suppliers can follow different innovation strategies derived from a deliberate planning or a emerging as suppliers incrementally learn and experiment along their path. A survey of 241 suppliers illustrates that these two strategic types effect on market success depends on the level of the rigidities. The survey results also illustrate that two dynamic capabilities, the planning capability and the innovation orientation, act as intermediary variables to increase success under specific rigidity conditions. The findings further illustrate that dynamic capabilities can be enhanced by an adequate strategy.

Innovation Strategies

Innovation has gained growing attention in the strategic management field, and — as a strategic orientation — it has been predominantly considered as a homogenous class of differentiated strategic mindsets. This contribution aims at distinguishing different sub-typologies of innovation strategies and validating their profiles and consistency. It explores approaches discussed in the mainstream literature as well as the possibility that other orientations could exist. A cluster analysis outlines four strategic orientations showing differences in terms of competitive drivers, value creation architectures, outsourcing and alliance policies, and managerial processes. Findings offer scholars and practitioners a better understanding of strategic alternatives in pursuing innovation through the identification of systems of consistency among managerial variables — e.g., configuration of the supply chain — thus fostering uniqueness and sustainability of the competitive advantage, and driving managers’ decision. In particular, what really characterised the different innovation strategies here shown is the way they deal with the value chain structure, meaning a key part of the business model.

Abstract This study aims to analyze the agricultural commodity supply chain during the Covid-19 pandemic. The data used in this paper is secondary data and analyzed descriptively. The effects of Covid-19 pandemic on agricultural supply chains are discussed, including transportation barriers during the pandemic and government programs to find a way out. Finally, this study showed the policy formula from government to maintain the national food security chain especially agricultural commodity such as guarantee transportation and distribution of food from surplus provinces to deficit provinces to achieve adequate food availability in each province, innovation strategies in the distribution of agricultural products, and create an intelligent and accurate information system.

This paper evaluates efficacy of supplier and manufacturer innovation under an asymmetric competing supply chain consisting of one supplier and two manufacturers. We depict pricing decisions and innovation strategies under three models, namely, benchmark model, supplier-led, and manufacturer-led innovation models. It is shown that although the supplier is motivated to innovate, all innovation strategies have more profits than single innovation strategies. In addition, when no manufacturer creates the product, one manufacturer will obtain a good profit from the innovation, while facing the competitor, the other manufacturer will have incentive to innovate. Moreover, we also evaluate implications of innovation strategy for consumer welfare and overall supply chain efficiency.
