Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

  • The impact of trade facilitation on exporting agricultural products from Vietnam   Order a copy of this article
    by Phuong Dung Le, Cong Tam Trinh 
    Abstract: The paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact of trade facilitation measures on countries export performance, particularly in agricultural products. It employs Logistic Performance Index (LPI) analysis to assess this impact using a panel dataset of 173 countries importing from Vietnam during 20102018. Results from a gravity model indicate that trade facilitationmeasured through interactions of the LPI with a geographical distance dummy and with GDPsignificantly influences agro trade value. The study has policy implications, suggesting that governments should adopt trade simplification and facilitation measures to reduce export time and cost, particularly given the perishable nature of agricultural products and the effects of distance. Notably, improving trade facilitation supports agricultural exports not only in Vietnam but also globally. This study underscores the need to prioritize trade logistics and procedural efficiency to enhance competitiveness in agro exports.
    Keywords: trade facilitation measures; LPI; export performance; agro products; Vietnam.

  • Prioritising installation risks in fully precast residential buildings using an integrated AHP-risk matrix framework: evidence from Bangkok   Order a copy of this article
    by Narongpol Sanoadontree, Danai Wantanakorn, Tosporn Prasertsri, Wasaporn Techapeeraparnic 
    Abstract: Installation risks remain a critical challenge in fully precast residential construction, particularly in dense urban environments. Existing studies often assess managerial importance and operational severity separately, limiting effective prioritisation. This study systematically integrates the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) with a probabilityimpact risk matrix using expert evaluations from fifty precast professionals, triangulated with data from fifty-eight completed projects in Bangkok. Results reveal a divergence between managerial perceptions, which prioritise planning and coordination, and operational realities, where structural installation and connection defects exhibit the highest severity. By synthesising these dimensions into a Risk Priority Index, the study proposes an integrated decision-support framework that enhances risk-informed resource allocation and project performance in urban precast construction.
    Keywords: precast construction; installation risk; AHP; analytic hierarchy process; risk matrix; risk prioritisation; construction management; productivity; decision-support framework; operational criticality.
