The Effect of CSRD on the Supply Chain: And Implementations of Sustainability To Logistics
No full textI projektet introduceres NFRD og CSRD, som de er gældende for specifikke børsnoterede selskaber i EU. Disse kræver omfattende krav til årlig obligatorisk bæredygtighedsrapportering gennem ESRS-rammen. Med CSRD følger en tvungen ændring af, hvordan virksomheder driver deres forsyningskæde og logistik, ved hjælp af andre direktiver såsom Green Deal. Denne rapport dykker ned i forskellige metoder til at indsamle data til rapporterne for at øge nøjagtigheden og gennemsigtigheden for interessenter og aktionærer. Udforsker den desuden metoder til at forbedre den overordnede forsyningskæde ved at kombinere traditionelle modeller med bæredygtighed. Til sidst præsenteres en løsning, der har til formål at tydeliggøre overgangen til et bedre optimeret bæredygtigt udvalg af leverandører.In the thesis the NFRD and CSRD is introduced as they are in effect on specific listed companies in the EU. These require extensive requirements to annual mandatory sustainability reporting through the ESRS framework. With CSRD comes a forced changed into how companies operate their supply chain and logistics, with the help of other directives such as the Green Deal. This report dives into different methods of collecting data to the reports to increase the accuracy and transparency for stakeholders and shareholders. Furthermore, does it explore methods to improve the overall supply chain by combining traditional models with sustainability. Lastly, is presented a solution that aim to clarify the transition into a better optimised sustainable selection of suppliers
Exploring nurse workforce flexibility as a solution towards higher patient throughput and resilience
No full textPurpose: The report seeks to explore if flexibilityin operation theater nurses can createhigher patient throughput and resilienceMethod: This is done qualitatively byinterviewing both perioperative nurses andcertified registered nurse anesthetists fromfour surgical specialisms to estimate proceduresconsidered capable of using crosstrainednurses and which factors prohibit thisResults: Factors such as procedure frequency,knowing the team, experience, andundefined skills impact which procedures canuse cross-trained nurses. On average could,48% of surgeries historically have used across-trained certified registered nurse anesthetistand 36% of surgeries with the crosstrainedpreoperative nurse, though the numbervaries significantly between surgical specialismProposal: Considering the identified crosstrainingfactors, a road map is proposed. Theroad map contains four steps towards a moreflexible workforce. These steps are 1) datafoundation, 2) visualization of competenciesand availability, 3) quality assurance on teamcomposition, and 4) balancing competencieswith procedural demands.Discussion: It is projected that the proposalcan improve patient throughput and resilience,but this is only considered feasible ifICT can be integrated due to an increase inorganizational complexity
Programledelse som redskab til konceptdrevet organisationsudvikling
No full textForandringsprogrammer har vundet indpas som en organisatorisk teknologi, der skal hjælpe organisationer med at operere på sig selv på en bred front på en effektiv måde. Programorganiseringen anvendes eksempelvis i forbindelse med konceptdrevet organisationsudvikling mod lean eller lignende filosofier. Programledelse er oprindeligt vokset ud af projektledelse, og det giver anledning til nogle udfordringer, når programformen anvendes i organisationsudvikling.Sigtet med kapitlet er at udbrede kendskabet til programledelse og skærpe opmærksomheden på behovet for at bryde med projekttankegangen, når målet ikke er projektleverancer, eksempelvis installation af software, men derimodberigelse af organisationens analyse og handlekraft. Kapitlet gennemgår nogle generelle udfordringer forbundet med konceptdrevet organisationsudvikling. Dernæst gennemgås en case, der illustrerer, at programledelse i en stor danskejetmultinational koncern ikke vedrører et snævert forum, men derimod den brede interaktion mellem program og omgivende organisation. I denne brede interaktion opstår der serier af beslutninger, der hver især kan bidrage til at fiksere tiltageneindenfor en projekttankegang med deraf følgende konsekvenser for udviklingen af organisationens analyse- og handlekraft
En dynamisk forståelse af arbejdsmiljø
No full textI forbindelse med lean projekters gennemgribende ændringer i arbejdet, er en statisk og faktorinddelt analyse af arbejdsmiljø ikke tilstrækkelig til at redegøre for den betydning ændringerne får for de involverede medarbejdere. I stedet præsenteres en helhedsorienteret, procesbaseret forståelse af det psykosociale arbejdsmiljø
Theorizing about technological development of manufacturing companies:- a critique of the AMT construct as basis for research
Get PDFThe aim of the paper is to apply metatriangulation and theory building to strengthen our theorizing on technological development of manufacturing firms. AMT literature is reviewed and by means of bracketing, the paper identifies a set of problematic assumptions embedded within traditional AMT research. A case study is used to emphasize how a process perspective enriches the traditional structural perspective. Finally, through first attempts at theory building, a set of propositions is suggested in order to overcome long-standing problems found in AMT research
Transformation challenges following the efficient lean practice implementation in the programme organized, project driven change process
Get PDFPh.d. studiet tager sit udgangspunkt i en case virksomhed der har etableret en central programorganisation til at varetage effektiv implementering af lean teknikker og værktøjer ved hjælp af lean projekter der rulles ud i alle dele af virksomhedens produktion. Studiet beskæftiger sig med at afdække hvorledes lokale produktionsenheders erfaringer med disse projekter og ibrugtagning af implementerede systemer bidrager til udviklingen af adfærd og systemer i overensstemmelse med lean tankegangen. Ved hjælp af interviews og observation indsnævrer studiet nogle karakteristika ved en vedvarende transformationsproces som i ringe grad addresseres gennem implementeringsprojekter
Digging deeper:Integrating theories of lean and Toyota management system
No full textThe paper suggests viewing managerial concepts as theories in use. Organizational transformation may thus be considered a process of adapting organizational practices to match these theories. The paper develops a framework that integrates findings based on industrial engineering perspectives on lean and writings from organizational theorists on Toyota management system. Based on translation theory, the paper argues that such framework should facilitate such communication driven change as well as the development of better research constructs of TPS
The Claims we Make about the I4 Technology-Performance Link
No full textEarly literature on I4 speculated that technology adoption would enhance performance and to many researchers and practitioners, it is intuitive that firms’ investments in modern technologies should or could support performance improvement and competitiveness. Meanwhile, Brynjolsson et al. (2017) find that productivity levels have not increased despite the vast interest in new digitalized technologies. Unfortunately, practitioners can be misled to overinvest in technologies from which they are unlikely to benefit when performance studies fail to deal appropriately with the endogeneity problems present in non-experimental quantitative studies based on survey data. This study aims at developing a qualitative approach to the investigation of the interpretive choices made when results from statistical analyses are translated into and communicated as implications. An interpretive scheme, and initial steps related to the development of codes are presented. Communicative choices are classified and evaluated against the methodological choices. The goal is to strengthen the awareness of interpretive and communicative patterns that exist in the operations management research domain as these patterns may affect the tendency to either over- or underinvest
