Mobile Internet based construction supply chain management: A critical review
Abstract Construction supply chain management (CSCM) has gained rapid development in last decades. As a result, the conventional Internet fails to fulfill demands for real-time information sharing and communication derived from various participants of the construction supply chain (CSC).The emerging Mobile Internet (M-Internet) has provided potential for solving this issue. This paper presents a systematic review on M-Internet based CSCM via descriptive and thematic analyses of publications retrieved from four major databases. The theoretical contribution of this paper is the development of an integrated framework in this research domain. This includes five aspects of CSCM, i.e. material flow and supply management, real-time information sharing and communication, coordination and integration in CSC, technology support for M-Internet, and associated safety issues. Finally, gaps in the existing body of knowledge are identified and future research agenda is proposed.
Highlights A systematic review of publications related to M-Internet based CSCM is presented. An integrated framework in this research domain is developed. Gaps in the existing body of knowledge are identified.
