The publisher of Journal of Global Operations and Strategic Sourcing wishes to retract the article by Jaypalsinh Ambalal Rana and Suketu Y. Jani, “An integrated Industry 4.0-Sustainable Lean Six Sigma framework to improve supply chain performance: a decision support study from COVID-19 lessons”, published in Journal of Global Operations and Strategic Sourcing, Vol. 16 No. 2, pp. 430-455, https://doi.org/10.1108/JGOSS-04-2022-0032.

It has come to our attention that a large portion of this article is taken, without attribution, from an earlier, unpublished original work by Manoj Palsodkar, Madhukar Nagare, and Gunjan Yadav, “Enhancing manufacturing supply chain performance through integrated Industry 4.0-ANPD practices: A decision support study from COVID-19 lessons”. The submission guidelines for Journal of Global Operations and Strategic Sourcing make it clear that articles must be original. The authors would like it to be noted that they are not in agreement with this retraction. The publisher of the journal sincerely apologizes to the readers.
