Green technology investment is an important factor that influences the sustainability and performance of supply chain. In this paper, we use game-theoretic approach, which quite suitable to operation decision research, model a chain consisting one supplier retailer discuss who should invest in green decentralized under demand uncertainty. An result found has stronger motivation higher efficienc...

Research on the impact of supplier integration on new product development has yet to be empirically verified. This study aims to explore what contingent factors influence supplier integration and how such integration affects new product performance using a contingency approach. The study uses structural equation modelling to analyze data from 251 manufacturers. We found that product newness, en...

For many years, purchasing and supplier performance evaluation have been discussed in both academic and industrial circles to improve buyer-supplier relationship. In this study, a novel model is presented to evaluate supplier performance according to different purchasing classes. In the proposed method, clustering analysis is applied to develop purchasing portfolio model using available data in...

A novel decision support framework has been proposed herein to solve supplier selection problems by considering green as well as resiliency criteria, simultaneously. In this work subjectivity of evaluation criteria has been tackled by exploring fuzzy set theory. A satisfaction function and distance based approach has been conceptualized in this work to operate under fuzzy environment. Applicati...
