AbstractDetermination of the External Warehouse location has a vital role in the Supply Chain Management system to facilitate the delivery process to consumers who can run smoothly, quickly, and the most optimum distance. The company needs to build a new external warehouse because the current warehouse will be used for new machine installations. Therefore, it was decided to create an alternative external warehouse outside the factory. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum location of the external warehouse to be made. This study uses the Center of Gravity method to calculate the optimal area that will be considered by the location between the distribution of consumer locations and the number of shipments and also consider the size of the factory that will supply the product. Based on the results of this study, calculations using the Center of Gravity method found that the location of the external warehouse chosen was at (-7.328293, 112.7420916), the settlement area of Jemur Wonosari, Wonocolo, Surabaya City, East Java. By determining the exact location of the external warehouse, the company will benefit from the efficiency of transportation costs.AbstrakPenentuan lokasi gudang eksternal memiliki peran penting dalam sistem Manajemen Rantai Pasokan untuk memfasilitasi proses pengiriman kepada konsumen sehingga proses produk dapat terkirim dengan lancar, cepat dan jarak yang paling optimal. Perusahaan saat ini membutuhkan gudang eksternal karena area gudang yang ada akan digunakan untuk instalasi mesin baru. Oleh karena itu, diputuskan untuk membuat alternatif gudang eksternal di luar pabrik. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menentukan lokasi gudang eksternal yang paling optimal untuk dibuat. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Center of Gravity untuk menghitung lokasi optimal yang sesuai dengan lokasi antara lokasi konsumen dan jumlah pengiriman dan juga mempertimbangkan lokasi pabrik yang akan memasok produk. Dari hasil penelitian ini, perhitungan menggunakan metode Center of Gravity menemukan bahwa lokasi gudang eksternal yang dipilih berada di (-7.328293, 112.7420916), yaitu daerah Jemur Wonosari, Wonocolo, Kota Surabaya, Jawa Timur. Dengan menentukan lokasi yang tepat dari gudang eksternal, perusahaan akan mendapat manfaat dari efisiensi biaya transportasi.

The presented study addresses the current problems in the implementation of the distributed ledger (blockchain) technology in supply chain management mechanisms in the context of the digital economy. Aim. The study aims to analyze the application of the blockchain technology in modern economic processes from the perspective of logistics.Tasks. The authors consider the possibility of using the blockchain technology in the supply chain management system and explore ways to use the findings of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) in the fieldof digital economy to organize information standardization processes within the supply chains of foreign and mutual trade.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition to examine approaches to the implementation of the blockchain technology in transport and logistics processes and to find opportunities for the implementation of smart contracts to ensure the traceability of the entire chain of commodity and information fl ws.Results. Implementation of the distributed ledger (blockchain) technology in the logistics processes of foreign and mutual trade increases the transparency of information fl ws and the speed of decisionmaking. This technology would allow the parties to negotiate directly, minimizing potential risks and the time required to approve a supply deal.Conclusions. The authors consider the possibility of using a systematic approach to the digitalization of transport and logistics processes and the subsequent standardization of information interaction at the B2B, B2G, and G2G levels, segmented by separate fields of transport and foreign trade and individual economic sectors. As a conclusion, the study assesses the prospects of the practical implementation of blockchain mechanisms in the creation of industrial platforms — digital platforms that provide integrated services for businesses and the government using a single window system.

Abstract Keeping track of the oil and gas supply chain is challenging task as the route and transportation requires sophisticated security environment - both physical systems’ and IT systems’ security. Thanks to the recent advancement in IoT, specialized sensors can keep track of the required supply chain environment. With the help of blockchain, the supply chain data can be immutably saved for further sharing with stakeholders. Due to the introduction of AI as an embedded element within 6G networks, the end-to-end supply chain process can now be automated for safety, security, and efficiency purposes. By leveraging 6G, AI, blockchain, and IoT, the supply chain data during the transportation or at rest can be monitored for any changed environment during the movement of the ship through national or international routes. In this paper, we study the requirements of such intelligent and secure supply chain management system conducive to the oil and gas industry. We also show our proof-of-concept implementation and initial test results. Our obtained results show promising prospect of the current system to be deployed to safeguard the oil and gas supply chain.

The challenges presented by recent changes in the business environment have sharpened the focus on the need for robust approaches to supply chain improvement. For most companies around the world, resources have been reduced, inventory drained, technology spending curtailed, and core processes scaled back in order to adjust to the current reality of reduced demand. So, this paper mainly concentrates on giving some tips based on recession recovery strategies. Firstly, this paper discussed the supply chain management trends in and up to 2015, then general concept of recession and the relation between recession and supply chain management system, then some fatal mistakes of recession recovery according to the supply chain experts and recession and recovery related literature reviews are summarized to identify ultimately the recession recovery strategies for the manufacturer. The paper ended with some supply chain management related predictions, tips for reducing supply chain barriers. Moreover, a brief section of this paper also here highlights the supply-chain infrastructure helpful for recession recovery that is one of the important factors for the reason of cost-reduction, resource planning and maintenance etc. in today's supply chain management and related environment.
