Inköpsmetoders roll inom B2B-relationer : En kvalitativ studie om inköpsmetoders påverkan på B2B-relationer inom mode- och textil detaljhandel / The role of procurement methods in B2B relations

Uthman, Ara, Jernberg, Ludwig January 2020 (has links)
Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning svenskamodedetaljister använder sig av digitala inköpsmetoder och hur de förhåller sig gentemot traditionella inköpsmetoder. Även vad detaljister ser för fördelar och nackdelar med olika inköpsmetoder, vilka inköpsmetoder de föredrar samt hur dessa påverkar relationen mellandetaljist och leverantör. Studien syftar till att utveckla kunskapen kring B2B-relationer inom inköp i detaljhandeln och underlätta framtida val av inköpsmetoder i relation till hur de påverkar B2B-relationer. Metod: Genom en kvalitativ och deduktiv ansats har empiriskt data samlats in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer i samverkan med åtta svenska modedetaljister. Detta för att på så vis få reda på deras åsikter och resonemang kring leverantörsrelationer och olika inköpsmetoder. Teoretiskt perspektiv: Den tidigare forskningen är baserat på forskning inom B2B-relationersamt traditionella- och digitala inköpsmetoder. Det teoretiska perspektivet består av fyrafaktorer som används för att utvärdera affärsrelationer. Dessa fyra faktorer är förtroende, tillfredställelse, engagemang och lojalitet. Empirin analyserades med den tidigare forskningen genom en tematisk analys baserad på de fyra tidigare nämnda faktorerna. Resultat och slutsatser: Resultatet visar att de traditionella inköpsmetoderna föredras eftersom de låter detaljisten göra en egen utvärdering av produkten och skapar förutsättningartill att bygga goda och långvariga relationer mellan detaljist och leverantör. De digitala inköpsmetoderna saknar möjligheten till att bygga relationer då det fysiska mötet försvinner, däremot är fördelen att inköpen kan ske när som helst, var som helst ifrån. Traditionella- och digitala inköpsmetoder ska alltså åtskiljas men nyttjas kompletterande ihop. / Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the extent to which Swedish fashion retailers use digital procurement methods and how they relate to traditional procurement methods. Also which advantages and disadvantages the retailers see within different procurement methods, what procurement methods they prefer and how these affect the relationship between retailer and supplier. The study aims to develop the knowledge of B2Brelationships in retail procurement and facilitate future choices of procurement methods in relation to how they affect B2B relationships. Method: Through a qualitative and deductive approach, empirical data has been collected through semi-structured interviews in collaboration with eight Swedish fashion retailers. With the purpose to find out their views and arguments about supplier relationships and different procurement methods. Theoretical perspective: The scientific research is based on research in B2B relations as well as traditional and digital procurement methods. The theoretical perspective consists of four factors that are used to evaluate business relationships. These four factors are trust, satisfaction, commitment and loyalty. The empirical data was analysed with the scientific research through a thematic analysis based on the four aforementioned factors. Results and conclusions: The result shows that the traditional procurement methods are preferred because they allow the retailer to make their own evaluation of the product and create the conditions for building good and long-lasting relationships between the retailer and the supplier. Digital procurement methods lack the opportunity to build relationships as the physical interaction disappears, however, the advantage is that digital procurements are available anywhere, at any time. Thus, traditional and digital procurement methods must be separated and complement each other.

Examining the Role of Procurement 4.0 towards Remanufacturing Operations and Circular Economy

Bag, S., Dhamija, P., Gupta, S., Sivarajah, Uthayasankar 26 June 2020 (has links)
Yes / Procurement digitalisation can provide significant opportunities for excellence in remanufacturing operations. The close attention of firms is required during the configuration of procurement 4.0 resources for applying front end and base technologies in order to develop the correct set of these resources. Based on Resource Based View theory, this research examines the role of resources influencing procurement 4.0 for driving productivity in remanufacturing operations and circular economy performance. The survey data for this research was gathered from working professionals in South Africa and results reveal that technological resources are necessary in procurement 4.0, which can in turn improve the productivity in remanufacturing operations. An upsurge in performance in remanufacturing operations can enhance the circular economy outcome. To the best of authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to provide insight for researchers, practitioners and academics with an empirical test of digital procurement on remanufacturing operations and of circular economy performance in an emerging economy like South Africa.
