Innovating For Impact: The Next Evolution Of Library Consortia, Xan Arch, Isaac Gilman

Collaborative Librarianship

Academic library consortia have traditionally focused on resource sharing and e-resource purchasing as core programs and value propositions for members. However, as academic libraries increasingly look beyond financial value and seek to demonstrate impact on institutional priorities and student outcomes, consortia must evolve to provide services that support those goals. This paper presents selected examples of innovative consortial programs that can have a significant impact on teaching, learning, and research at members’ institutions as suggested models for other consortia that may be engaged in reviewing strategic priorities and programs.

Smart Container Inventory Management: A Conceptual Approach, Lalith Edirisinghe Dec 2017

Smart Container Inventory Management: A Conceptual Approach, Lalith Edirisinghe

Journal of Innovation in Science, Engineering and Technology

Containerization has provided a substantial contribution to the global supply chain. However, it is quite a paradox to note that carriers do not practice or pursue a standard container inventory management system. Each individual carrier develops an inventory management mechanism that suits to their vision, mission, and objectives. These practices are hardly shared between carriers and most of them believe that container inventory management is purely the tacit knowledge of their container controllers and nothing to argue on their decisions. This attitude impedes the industry gaining the experience curve advantage and learning by mistakes. Therefore, the same mistake tends to …

Strategic Marketing Approach In Container Shipping: Application Of Ten S Model, Lalith Edirisinghe Dec 2017

Strategic Marketing Approach In Container Shipping: Application Of Ten S Model, Lalith Edirisinghe

Journal of Innovation in Science, Engineering and Technology

The application of strategic marketing theories is rather difficult due to the complexities in demand and supply factors in the shipping industry. Shipping is a derived demand of international trade. The supply of shipping also has its exclusiveness leading to very complicated outcomes. Given the fact that shipping has more services characteristics than that of a product the key fundamentals such as perishability, intangibility, non-separability, and heterogeneity make it further complicated. This paper attempts to systematically apply the Ten S marketing model because it is expected that the model could be applied in highly complicated marketing environments.
