Biography

Prof Ming Lim is currently Professor of Supply Chain Management and Digitalisation at Adam Smith Business School. Prior to joining the University of Glasgow, he was Dean of College of Mechanical Engineering and Distinguished Professor of Manufacturing & Logistics Engineering at Chongqing University (China) and Co-cluster Lead/Professor of Supply Chain and Operations Management at Coventry University. Prof Lim obtained his PhD in Manufacturing Systems from University of Exeter and BEng (Hons) in Manufacturing Engineering from University of Liverpool. After his post-doctoral position at University of Exeter and a couple of years as a business improvement manager at a management consulting company, he started his lectureship in logistics management at Aston University in 2006. In 2012, he was appointed as Head of Centre for Supply Chain Improvement at the University of Derby Business School.

At Aston University, Prof Lim started building his research in the field of technology-driven logistics and supply chain systems, and founded a research alliance, namely Radio-frequency identification (RFID) Advanced Research. He has been providing consultancy to companies from manufacturing and logistics sectors in enhancing production and supply chain competitiveness, and in implementing RFID technology. Close collaboration with large organisations including DHL, NHS, Tesco and Caterpillar, and a range of SMEs across different industries. In total, he has generated £557,000 incomes from a range of funding bodies, such as EU FP7, UKRI EPSRC, InnovateUK KTP, a number of EPSRC CASE studentships and industry-funded projects.

At University of Derby, he was Head of a new Centre of Excellence for Supply Chain Improvement for advanced research and business engagement to serve the region. He has recruited a team consisting of three academic staff, three research associates and four PhD students, to conduct research and heavily engage with businesses in three focuses: Technology Innovation, System Improvement and Process Re-engineering. Research projects awarded include EU-funded grants “CITADEL on the move” and “AdvIOT”, European Regional Development Funds, InnovateUK projects, and industry-funded projects. The industrial projects involved Rolls-Royce, Toyota, Bombardier, Unilever, Alliance Boots, and SMEs across aerospace, automotive and rail industries. The Centre has generated a total revenue of just over £860,000 in three and a half years.

At Coventry University, Ming was Professor of Supply Chain and Operations Management and Co-cluster Lead for a group of supply chain academics and researchers to pursue excellency in research and industrial impact. The goal is to create critical mass in supply chain research to raise the university profile and reputation, and disseminate it to the international platform and the commercial sector. Collaborating with the University of Oxford, he has obtained an EPSRC grant of £970,000.

Over 20 years of research career and academic leadership, Prof Lim’s research is multi-disciplinary integrating engineering, computer science, information technology and operations management, aiming at addressing the fast-growing demands for industrial applications. His applied research expertise can be categorised into 3 areas:

Technology-driven – Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, Blockchain, cloud manufacturing, big data analytics and AI/machine learning.
Sustainable/Circular supply chain management & low carbon logistics – Green logistics, sustainable supply chain management, low carbon initiatives (net zero/carbon neutral), circular economy and sharing economy.
Lean and agile principles – Lean logistics, agile manufacturing, operations analytics, cost & system optimisation, meta heuristics, and system modelling.

Prof Lim is Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Logistics Research and Applications and an editorial board member of a range of leading journals. Ming has published over 250 papers in leading journals in the fields, such as Int. J. of Operations & Production Management, European J. of Operational Research, Int. J. of Production Economics, Omega, Transportation Research, Computers & Industrial Engineering, J. of the Operational Research Society, Annals of Operations Research, Int. J. of Production Research, Production Planning and Control, Expert Systems with Applications, Resources, Conservation & Recycling, and Industrial Management & Data System.
