Teamwork in the supply chain – a systematic and bibliometric analysis (part 1)

Praca zespołowa w łańcuchu dostaw – systematyczna i bibliometryczna analiza literatury (cz. 1)

The success of supply chains depends primarily on integrating and coordinating the activities of network participants. Many supplier companies are shifting toward team-based structures to manage the boundaries with their customers. One of the possibilities of the operational implementation of cooperation in the supply chain is the appointment of teams in the network structure. Teamwork is a specific social group, consisting of at least two people, subject to the same impact, consciously interacting with one another, perceiving themselves as members of a specific group and identifying with it, as well as having a common goal, shared norms and creating a characteristic structure (fulfilling complementary roles). Situation caused by COVID-19 forced a change in defining and functioning of supply chains. It is also a moment of very dynamic development of work and cooperation in a remote environment, which impacted the functioning of teamwork in the supply chain. The paper is composed of two parts and aims to orient researchers who are new to collaborative work in supply chain research. The first article is structured as follows: the systematic literature review procedure is presented, then the bibliometric analysis is conducted, an in-depth analysis of journals and articles is performed with use of the Treecloud tool and VOSviewer software to analyse the selected papers.

Sukces łańcuchów dostaw zależy przede wszystkim od integracji i koordynacji działań uczestników sieci. Wielu dostawców przechodzi na struktury oparte na zespołach, aby zarządzać granicami organizacji wraz ze swoimi klientami. Jedną z możliwości operacyjnej realizacji współpracy w łańcuchu dostaw jest powołanie zespołów w ramach struktury sieciowej. Praca zespołowa jest specyficznym konstruktem społecznym, składającym się z co najmniej dwóch osób, podlegających temu samemu oddziaływaniu, świadomie wchodzących ze sobą w interakcje, postrzegających siebie jako członków określonej grupy i identyfikujących się z nią, a także mających wspólny cel, wspólne normy i tworzących charakterystyczną strukturę (osoby pełnią uzupełniające się role). Sytuacja spowodowana pandemią COVID-19 wymusiła zmianę w definiowaniu i funkcjonowaniu łańcuchów dostaw. To także moment bardzo dynamicznego rozwoju pracy i współpracy w środowisku zdalnym, który wpłynął na funkcjonowanie pracy zespołowej w łańcuchu dostaw. Artykuł, który składa się z dwóch części, ma na celu ukierunkowanie badaczy, dla których badania nad pracą zespołową w łańcuchu dostaw są pewnym novum. W części pierwszej opisano procedurę systematycznego przeglądu literatury, analizy bibliometrycznej, dokonano poszerzonej prezentacji czasopism oraz artykułów z największą liczbą cytowań w poruszanej tematyce oraz wykorzystano narzędzie Treecloud i oprogramowanie VOSviewer do analizy wyselekcjonowanych artykułów.
