The root cause of the problems plaguing many supply chains is a mismatch between the supply chain strategy and the business strategy. The purpose of this article is firstly to examine supply chain management challenges with specific reference to the South African automotive industry and secondly to suggest a framework to help supply chain managers choose their supply chain strategies. The article is based on a theoretical analytical review of related literature on supply chain strategies. Based on the review of literature, the article articulates that supply chain challenges in the South African automotive industry stem from the external environment, the customers, competition and the automotive industry. The article also contends that the challenges in the supply chain are caused by a mismatch in the application of supply chain strategies. The article concludes by suggesting a framework for chosen supply chain strategies and endeavours to contribute to the debate on differentiating supply chain strategies.

Purpose –this paper aims to investigate the effects of different dimensions of supply chain management practices (SCMP) on supply chain performance efficiency (SCPE) in the industrial sector in the Sudan. Design/methodology/approach – The study employed the quantitative method where convenience sampling and self-administrated survey questionnaires were sent to 110 manufacturing companies in Sudan. Findings – The empirical results indicate that three of the five dimensions of SCMP had a significant positive effect on supply chain performance efficiency. Moreover, a new dimension was developed in supply chain management practices. Research limitations/implications – This study focuses only on the manufacturing sector. Also the data were only collected from single respondents in an organization. However, being the first study to explore the dimensions of SCMP and how those dimensions relate to supply chain performance efficiency, the study shapes the pathway for future research. Practical implications – The results lighted to SCM practitioners and policy makers on the importance of SCMP to increase the performance of manufacturing industry in terms of supply chain performance efficiency. Originality/value – This study developed framework based on existing theoretical base and employs a new approach to empirically examine the relationship between two important factors, the SCMP and supply chain performance efficiency.

Economists and sociologists have long regard­ ed the problem of adaptation as a central prob­ lem of economic organization (Selznick, 1948; Hayek, 1949). However, despite their agreement on the importance of the problem, economists and sociologists have typically focused on alter­ native structures as solutions to the problem of adaptation. Economists have historically looked to the market as a solution, while sociologists have traditionally focused on formal organization­ al mechanisms. One of the few notable attempts to synthesize economic and sociological approaches has been the work of Oliver Williamson (1975, 1985, 1991 ), who argues thai the solution to this problem of adaptation lies in a sensitivity to the markets-hi­ erarchies continuum and to the costs associated with transactions at different positions along this continuum. Which organizational form is most efficacious in a given circumstance is contingent upon which solves this problem of adaptation at the lowest transac...

A Quantitative Comparison of Pre-Trained Model Registries to Traditional Software Package Registries

Software Package Registries are an integral part of the Software Supply Chain, acting as collaborative platforms that unite contributors, users, and packages, and streamline package management processes. Much of the engineering work around reusing packages from these platforms deals with the issue of synthesis, combining multiple packages into a new package or downstream project. Recently, researchers have examined registries that specialize in providing Pre-Trained Models (PTMs), to explore the nuances of the PTM Supply Chain. These works suggest that the main engineering challenge of PTM reuse is not synthesis but selection. However, these findings have been primarily qualitative and lacking quantitative evidence of the observed differences. I therefore evaluate the following hypothesis:

The prioritization of selection over synthesis in Pre-Trained Model reuse means that the evolution and reuse of Pre-Trained Models differs compared to traditional software. The evolution of models will be more linear, and the reuse of models will be more centralized.
