Context: Healthcare supply chain management is the regulation of the flow of medical goods and services from manufacturers to patients. Supply chain management encompasses the planning and managing of all activities involved in sourcing and procurement, conversion, and all logistics management activities. Therefore, it greatly helps material managers to manage through continuous improvement efforts while maintaining the quality of care. Moreover, reinforcing healthcare logistics information technology (IT) architecture immediately leads to more patient satisfaction. Objectives: This study aimed to develop an architecture for designing efficient software aiding with the management of the healthcare supply chain. Methods: This study showed the role of digital services in the improvement of the clinical regime of patients by presenting different approaches with distinguishing the main types of hospital logistics, such as physical flow management, food safety, and cold chain management approaches (e.g., “moving forward”), and modeling these components using the solution architecture principles of ITs, such as Business Process Model and Notation. Results: This study proposed a hospital enterprise architecture by modeling a system to have a base for building a digital catering service that improves the clinical regime of patients.

This chapter investigates opportunities to integrate mobile technologies within an organization’s enterprise architecture (EA), with an emphasis on supply chain management (SCM) systems. These SCM systems exist within the overall EA of the business. SCM systems are further influenced by the increasing modern-day need for information and communications technologies (ICTs) within a business, to bring together all of its disparate applications. The resultant enterprise application integration (EAI) also stands to benefit immensely from the incorporation of mobile technologies within it. Traditionally, supply chain management systems have involved management of the flows of material, information, and finances in a complex web of networks that include suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and customers. Thus, these traditional supply chain management systems have a great need for integration under the umbrella of EAI. Mobile technologies can provide time and location independence to these EAIs in terms of information in the supply chain systems, creating the possibility of multiple business processes that traverse diverse geographical regions. This chapter, based on the research conducted by the authors at the University of Western Sydney, discusses the opportunities that arise in supply chain management systems due to the time and location independence offered by mobility, and the resultant advantages and limitations of such integration to the business.

<strong>Aim/Purpose</strong>: This paper being a review paper shows mapping of enterprise architecture with respect to supply chain domain as per agile parameter so to find the best architecture for the development of the enterprise solution used in SCM company. <strong>Background /Methodology</strong>: Without EA, companies muddle through. In an agile environment selection of enterprise architecture is difficult even considering different parameters with SCM phases. This is a question and answer based research survey done for finding the mapping of SCM with different EAs were evaluated with 20yrs of experienced five experts. <strong>Originality/Value</strong>: This paper shows different EA mapped to SCM domain. Tabular format mapping of agile parameter with EA helps to find best EA for developing enterprise solutions even in agile environment. <strong>Findings</strong>: Comparison of 11 EA with a set of agile parameters shows that TOGAF is the most suitable EA for the development of the enterprise software solution. Systematic and structural working of TOGAF, handles the development in agile situation. <strong>Practical implications</strong>: Set of agile parameter from different phases of SCM may help practitioners to understand agile environment gives technical and logical gap which needs to consider in developing the software solution. <strong>Social implications</strong>: Mapping agile parameters at different strategies can help system to withstand in the changing environment with its impact on different operational levels of SCM. <strong>Research limitations/implications:</strong> Finding the type of agility and amount of agility in the SCM system can be an enhancement of this paper. Even more effective agile parameters affecting agility are the future of SCM.

Introduction. The Covid 19 pandemic has challenged SMEs to continue to innovate, develop and maintain sustainability. Various efforts have been made to be able to have performance and competitiveness. Covid-19 provides lessons on how SMEs must be agile and resilient to turbulence, especially the global crisis so that they can carry out risk mapping, take important lessons and build relevant strategies. Aims and Task. This study aims to map the literature on organizational agility and organizational resilience in SMEs by conducting a bibliography analysis on 932 papers published in 2010-2021 in the Scopus bibliography. Result. Based on the results of the network visualization, there are seven main clusters. From the results of the overlay visualization, a supply chain is the most important variable concerning organizational agility and organizational resilience in realizing sustainability. Meanwhile, in the density visualization aspect, variables with a very high probability as future research topics such as supply management, supply chain sustainability, sustainable development goals, human resource management, chain resilience, sustainable supply chain management, agile, urban resilience, visibility, supply chain design, resilient supplier selection, and enterprise architecture. Conclusion. The present study produces a visual trend of organizational agility and resilience in SMEs sector that can be used as a references, guidance and proposed for further researchers in exploring research topics, bridging the gap in the literature, building expertise in related topic, increasing the number of citations, and enhance international networking among authors all around the world. Research regarding organizational agility and resilience could be a strategic and essential because of every organization need to sustain their existance, minimize potential risk both financial and non-financial.
