Empirical Research in Logistics and Supply Chain Management Using Big Data

Host: Associate Professor Qian LI

Speaker: Associate Professor Wan Xiang

This lecture combines the big data analysis methods to discuss each component of the

empirical research (theories, methods, results, conclusions, effects, etc.) and the  considerations for each component. From the perspective of a international journal  editor and a reviewer, the presenter will share research frontiers, hotspots, and  mainstream research methods in the field of logistics and supply chain. We hope to  help young scholars learn how to apply empirical methods to conduct research  projects, write academic papers, and submit to top journals, further answer review  comments through the lecture.

Dr. Wan Xiang is currently an Associate Professor, Lifelong Professor and Doctoral Superviso at Fisher College of Business of The Ohio State University. His research  areas include diversity management of products and services, inventory management, coordination and cooperation in the supply chain. He has published more than 20 academic papers in sci academic journals including Strategic Management Journal, Production and Operations Management, Journal of Operations Management, Decision Sciences Journal of Supply Chain Management, Journal of Business Logistics, International Journal of Production Economics, Transportation Research ,etc. At the same time, he is the associate editor of Journal of Operations Management, Decision Sciences Journal and Journal of Business Logistics, as well as the reviewer of more than ten international top-levels such as Strategic Management Journal, Production and Operations Management, Journal of Operations Management, Journal of Supply Chain Management, Transportation Research. He was reported by the Wall Street Journal as one of the 12 experts in supply chain big data applications.

Empirical Research in Management: Collecting Big Data Using Scientific Methods

Host: Associate Professor Qian LI

Speaker: Associate Professor Wan Xiang

In the age of big data, data is the foundation of empirical studies. Researchers are able  to understand business practices by analyzing empirical data. This seminar discusses  the common SCIentific methods of data collection including web crawling, survey, experiments, and archival data.

Empirical Research in Management: Data Analysis, Endogeneity, and Causalitys

Host: Associate Professor Qian LI

Speaker: Associate Professor Wan Xiang

After collecting data, researchers should investigate research questions using rigorous

methods. The learning objectives of this seminar are (1) to understand approaches to

empirical research (2) understand challenges inherent in observational studies, and (3)

develop a set of research methods to address endogeneity and identify causality.

Review Approaches and Strategies for Future Engineering Management Research

Host: Associate Professor Qian LI

Speaker: Dr. Heap-Yih (John) Chong

Fundamentally, literature review is what already known, and analyse the relevant materials

for the research. This is a common and crucial step for any academic research, even for

industry projects. However, a good review can define the knowledge boundary and need for

future research. It also can develop new hypotheses and theories. In this talk, I will present  the all common and practical review methods. Then, I will discuss the review steps and  strategies for engineering management. Some actual examples will be elaborated in terms of  different needs of review within a paper or as a paper. Subsequently, certain challenges and  requirements will be discussed for its contribution, impact, logic and thoroughness.

Dr. Heap-Yih (John) Chong obtained his PhD in Civil Engineering  (Construction Engineering and Management) from Universiti  Teknologi Malaysia in 2011. Currently, he holds a continuing position

as a Senior Lecturer (Teaching & Research) in the Department of  Construction Management, Curtin University. He brings with him a  sound understanding of the construction sector. He has a strong track  record of coherent research outputs in the top refereed journal  articles and has successfully secured a number of competitive research  grants from funding bodies in Australia ( including ARC Discovery

Grant) and other countries, such as Malaysia, China, Middle East, and  Japan. He has a growing profile and is actively involved in professional bodies and industry  engagements. He also receives full sponsorships as a Visiting Professor in Tamkang  Unversity, Taiwan (affiliated with Research Development Center of Construction Law), from  Jan 2015 until Jan 2017; and Visiting Scholar in Tsinghua University, China (affiliated with  Centre of International Construction and Project Management), from Nov 2016 until Nov

2018. To date, 140 publications have been published/accepted, such as 2 books, 7 book

chapters, 81 journal papers and 50 conference papers, with a rapid growth of impact or  h-index within the last 5 years as per the indices of the Web of Science (h-index: 13), Scopus  (h-index: 15) or Google Scholar (h-index: 17).

Contract Administration for BIM-Based Engineering Projects

Host: Associate Professor Qian LI

Speaker: Dr. Heap-Yih (John) Chong

Engineering projects data need to be digitalized, shared, and used by all project stakeholders

throughout the project life-cycle in a collaborative; and harmonious manner. The future  contract administration practice will be open, collaborative, productive and dynamic. With  the help of information and communication technology including Building Information  Modelling initiatives in the construction industry, a different management of contracts is  required to regulate and enforce the new practice, which acts as the first or crucial adaptation  mechanism for the transformation. In this talk, I will present current state of procurement  systems with BIM and then I will propose a BIM Conceptual Framework. Subsequently,  some legal issues and their associated solutions will be discussed.
