Topic: 10Abstract:
Off-site manufacturing (OSM) has proven to be an innovative and effective approach of addressing low productivity and sustainability issues in construction projects [1]. Supply chain management is an indispensable component of the OSM project management [2]. Nevertheless, issues have emerged in the supply chain management while using it in infrastructure projects due to their transient, fragmented, and complex nature as well as the large number of stakeholders involved [3]. The development of a collaborative supply chain has significant values in addressing the issues in the OSM supply chain management for infrastructure projects. However, limited explorations about this issue are available. Therefore, this discussion paper aims to develop transformative supply chain conceptual framework for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of OSM infrastructure projects. An integrative review method was adopted to achieve the aim. The proposed framework will improve the productivity and sustainability performance of the infrastructure sector through advancing supply chain management performance with other advanced technologies. It contributes to the creation of new knowledge of supply chain management in infrastructure engineering.
