Literature review processCompletion details
Step 1
Define research questions
RQ1: What are the main decision factors in manufacturing reshoring decision-making?
RQ2: Which decision factors constitute a driver, barrier or enabler of manufacturing reshoring?
RQ3: How applicable is the Eclectic Paradigm to manufacturing reshoring decision-making?
Step 2
Determine characteristics of primary studies
Time: 2009–2022
(Trial searches before 2009 yielded hits on, e.g. services and oil platforms. The first manufacturing paper was identified to be published in 2009.)
Search areas: Title, Abstract, Keywords
Source type: Peer-reviewed journal article
Language: English
Databases: Scopus and Web of Science
(selection criteria: broad coverage in supply chain and operations management research, ensuring access to a comprehensive and pertinent array of literature on reshoring and the eclectic paradigm)
Step 3
Retrieve baseline sample of articles
Search string
“reshoring” OR “re-shoring” OR “reshore” OR “re-shore” OR “reshored” OR “re-shored” OR “backshoring” OR “back-shoring” OR “backshore” OR “back-shore” OR “backshored” OR “back-shored” OR “onshoring” OR “on-shoring” OR “onshored” OR “on-shored” OR “rightshoring” OR “right-shoring” OR “rightshore” OR “right-shore” OR “rightshored” OR “right-shored” OR “nearshoring” OR “near-shoring” OR “nearshored” OR “near-shored” OR “inshoring” OR “in-shoring” OR “inshored” OR “in-shored” OR “redistributed manufacturing” OR “re-distributed manufacturing”
Baseline sample: 546
(Scopus: 475, Web of Science: 374, Duplicates: 303)
Step 4
Select pertinent literature
Sample after abstract and paper screening
Initial sample after initial search (March 2017)
55 articles
Final sample after alert review (December 2022)
100 articles
Step 5
Synthesise literature
Phase 1: Decision factors were extracted and categorized based on Eclectic Paradigm.
Phase 2: Influencing factors were extracted and categorized based on main decision factors.
Phase 3: Hybrid factors were identified and further investigated
Step 6
Report the results
Decision factors are presented in sub-Section 4.1
Influencing factors are presented in sub-Section 4.1
Hybrid factors are presented in sub-Section 4.2
