Cabotage as an external non-tariff measure on the competitiveness on SIDS's agribusinesses: The case of Puerto RicoSuárez II Gómez, William January 2018 (has links)
Yes / This paper explores the multidimensional effects of an external non-tariff measure (NTM)
on maritime transportation between the United States (US) and Puerto Rico (PR) trades.
In particular, this research addresses the vulnerability level of PR’s agrifood sector in relation
to sustainability as a Small Island Developing State (SIDS) highly influenced by a larger
economy. Due to the high potential of climate changes in the Caribbean, this study reviewed
the effects of a maritime cabotage policy on a SIDS agribusinesses’ logistic. Could a NTM
affect the supply chain capabilities and the food security of a SIDS? What challenges and opportunities
does the US Cabotage policy present for PR’s agricultural sector’s competitiveness?
Based on mixing empirical analysis in an exploratory convergent design, the research
categorizes the cabotage policy in relation to the effects on PR’s agrifood supply chain, its
port infrastructure, and its native agribusinesses’ competitiveness. Results show the maritime
cabotage itself is a constraint. However, the interactions with others NTMs, indirectly
related to the cabotage but inherent to the political status and business relationship between
PR and the US, add other limits. In addition, it revealed that internal factors have an impact
on the efficiency and competitiveness of PR’s agro-industrial sector.

Hospital Supply Chain Integration and its Impact on OutcomesMorand, Michael David January 2020 (has links)
Collaboration among hospital supply chain organizations and their internal and external partners has taken many forms partially in response to significant increases in health care costs in the United States while the quality of care delivered has not significantly improved outcomes for patients. An increasingly important factor of this high-cost profile is the cost of supplies including medical/surgical supplies and implants which are the primary focus of this research. The development of new supply chain capabilities alongside internal cost control and process improvement efforts as well as collaborative efforts between hospitals and suppliers have, in many cases, led to incremental efficiencies. However, there has not been a broad study of integration of United States hospital supply chains with their partners, the resulting capabilities, the achievement of supply chain and financial performance outcomes. In a discussion of hospital performance, it is important to note that patient care is critical in decisions made about hospital cost management, thus it is understandable that a specific capability or performance element prioritized in one hospital may be prioritized differently in another. This research examines the relationship between integration capabilities with supply chain and financial performance. Outcomes from multiple studies of this research includes empirical support for a strong link between supply chain capabilities (Study 1) and supply chain performance and directional link between supply chain capabilities as well as supply chain performance and financial outcomes (Studies 2 and 3). Additionally, this research created a practitioner-oriented benchmarking resource intended to aid in the identification of capability/performance gaps and advantages. / Business Administration/Interdisciplinary
