Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify the contemporary research themes published in IJOPM order contribute current debates about future directions operations management (OM) research. Design/methodology/approach All 310 articles from volume 24 issue 9 2004 through 29, 12 2009 are analysed using content analysis methods. This period chosen because it represents all issues for which authors able have full control, during their tenure as Editors journal. supplemented by data on 1,853...
AbstractThe purposes of this research are to remove some the confusion surrounding characterisation lean systems; delve deeper into human issues associated with lean; and explore complexity an established system identify which affect its success ongoing continuance. Using mixed methods literature analysis, semi-structured interviews document we examine implementation in one site international car manufacturer. We claim several contributions for work. First, produce a literature-based...
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the empirical reality environmental scanning (ES) practices in sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) contexts. In particular it tests a conceptual framework proposed 2011 by Fabbe-Costes et al. Design/methodology/approach data for research were obtained from 45 semi-structured interviews with key informants, combined discussion main results focus group experts. These are compared literature and brought bear on framework. Findings...
This article investigates the influence of organisation size on effective implementation performance measurement systems (PMSs). Contingency theory suggests that effects are relevant for many operations management practices and extant studies confirm this to be true such as total quality management, Lean business process re-engineering. However, robust empirical evidence PMS has not yet been produced. We draw upon fundamental differences between small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) large...
A fundamental challenge for system engineers is to capture a problem with an effective model or framework and then facilitate transferring the information of that captured practical systems engineering tools methods. The early definition phase requires application thinking adequate modeling Then, later architecting methods through emerging techniques such as model-based (MBSE) using SysML (MBSE practice diagrams). This paper presents method capturing systemigrams Boardman soft methodology...
A primary role of Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) is to facilitate industry access market intelligence and ensure that operators understand their markets (both existing emerging). Web logs, or blogs, are a relatively new form arising from peer communication over the internet. The extent which content blogs may augment DMO activities unknown but likely depend on operator predisposition e-strategies in general. This study reports survey Kitzbühel Tourism operator's current online...
Purpose To explore alliance managers' perceptions of the most significant determinants strategic success in software sector. Design/methodology/approach The study is based on 30 key informant interviews and a survey 143 managers. Findings While both structural process factors are important, affecting adaptability openness partners, human resource practices partners' learning capability during implementation. Alliance partners should pay more attention to operational implementation issues as...

Many data warehouses are currently underutilized by managers and knowledge workers. Can high-quality end-user metadata help to increase levels of adoption use?
A number of commentators have suggested that the Northern Territory Emergency Response (NTER), introduced in June 2007, has promoted movement Indigenous people away from remote areas towards towns. Using both census and interview data authors show rural to urban been well established since at least 1991. Mobility pattens are complex many moves simply short-term. But long-term trend amongst follows pattern observed numerous other locations within Australia overseas. Indeed, short term NTER is...
There is significant confluence in the literature that leads one to expect groups of haves and have nots socio-economic systems within common spatial contexts. Several economic theories suggest activity be concentrated a few core areas with geographically large ‘peripheries’ relying on or two industries for employment income. In context north Australia, issues disparities status between region elsewhere also been highlighted some time. This paper discusses contemporary situation using...
This paper examines the antecedents to effective performance measurement system (PMS) implementation. There have been only a few studies which investigated this topic, and to-date there is no consensus about what factors are significant. Using empirical data collected from 349 UK manufacturing firms, we identify six potential an item pool derived extensive literature review. Subsequent regression analysis reveals that all significant influence on PMS implementation effectiveness. We...
