OSCAR connects academia and industry through applied research in operations and supply chain management
OSCAR supports academia and industry by taking a leadership role in creating a low-carbon economy through merging research on many key areas around the circular economy, closed loop supply chains, resource efficiency and innovation management.
OSCAR combines technology with business, as manufacturing and service competitiveness relies on both technical innovation and effective management of non-technical issues, such as process improvement, change management and leadership.
OSCAR focuses on how organizations develop innovative services when faced with disruptive technologies. This allows organizations to develop innovative services that leverage technologies such as blockchain, smart labels, and consumer wearables, industry 4.0.
OSCAR explores areas such as risk management, traceability, humanitarian logistics, supply chain reconfigurations and resilience, which enable both the manufacturing and service sectors to innovate their supply chains, service delivery and business processes.
