SmallSat Symposium 2022

February 8-10, 2022 – Mountain View, CA

SmallSats now account for 97% of satellites launched and almost half of all upmass. With hundreds of SmallSat projects underway, this massive shift in satellite markets is poised to only accelerate in the near term.

The 2022 SmallSat Symposium brings together the leaders driving this change to identify critical trends and qualify disruptive technologies. An ideal environment for open communication, important networking and critical insight are hallmarks of this must-attend satellite industry event.

Supply chain will be discussed on the panel: Logistical Support and Integration Services for SmallSat Systems

The Impact of Business Intelligence on Supply Chain Performance with Emphasis on Integration and Agility–a Mixed Research Approach

International Journal of Productivity and Performance Management

The impact of business intelligence on supply chain performance with emphasis on integration and agility–a mixed research approach | Emerald Insight

Purpose

The paper aims to explore how business intelligence (BI), integration and agility influence supply chain performance.

Design/methodology/approach

The study was performed by the exploratory sequential mixed method in two phases including meta-synthesis as a qualitative method and survey as a quantitative method. Data were collected through a survey of 369 Iranian companies across various industries. Structural equation modeling was used to test hypotheses.

Findings

The results show that BI, integration and agility play an important role in achieving better supply chain performance. In the meantime, BI has the greatest impact on supply chain performance. Additionally, BI has a positive and significant effect on the integration and agility of the supply chain. The study also found that integration has a direct effect on supply chain agility.

Originality/value

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, the paper theoretically and empirically presents a new conceptual model of the relationship between BI, integration, agility and supply chain performance. The study helps researchers and practitioners to achieve insights into supply chain performance improvement.
