Abstract Firms no longer compete as autonomous entities and prefer to joinin a supply chain alliance to take advantage of highly competitive business situation. Supply chain coordination has a greatimpact on Firm’sstrategic partnering and success in competitive business environment. In this paper, we propose a system dynamics simulation model for strategic partner selection in supply chai...

The increase of international competition motivated most of the organizations to create useful shared mutual cooperation with supply chain partners since they understood that cooperation and collaboration of supply chain partners is the prerequisite for the increase of reliability level and the decrease of risks and also the enhancement of innovative qualities and profitability of the companies...

emission trading is one of the famous mechanisms under kyoto protocol to control environmental pollution. the aim of this paper is to design a strategic supply chain network under emission trading scheme with inclusion of stochastic parameters and budget limitation. demand and price of carbon credits are considered as the important stochastic parameters influencing the supply chain network. in ...

nowadays, in turbulent and violate global markets an agile supply chain (asc) network is frequently considered as a dominant competitive advantage for survival. to achieve the competitive advantage, companies must align with suppliers and customers to streamline operations, as well as agility beyond individual companies. there are many definitions and models about agile supply chain and most of...

Background: The Dynamic Modified Stochastic p-Median Problem (DMS-p-MP) is an important problem in supply chain network design, as it deals with the optimal location of facilities and allocation demand a dynamic uncertain environment. Methods: In this research paper, we propose mixed-integer linear formulation for DMS-p-MP, which captures key features allows efficient solution methods. DMS-p-MP...

Purpose Companies could gain competitive advantage through the supply chain network. Especially facility location represent possible source of cost and service performance improvement. The goal of this article is to explore and expose what could be the facility location key performance indicators. Design/methodology/approach A literature review is conducted to examine research relating to suppl...

it is necessary to consider the impact of demand uncertainty to model the comprehensive approach for supply chain network design. this paper presents four echelons, multiple commodity, and strategic–tactical model for designing supply chain network. uncertain demand, transportation mode selection with lead time configuration has been considered. a numerical example has been implemented to verif...

the revenue management concept and techniques are applied to model the coordination of supply chain elements. the fundamental premise of this approach is synchronization of a group of business entities consist-ing of a manufacturer and multiple suppliers to achieve an optimal supply chain capacity plans. the output of the supply chain can be various products and thus it is measured in terms of ...

Decentralized supply chain management is found to be significantly relevant in today’s competitive markets. Production and distribution planning is posed as an important optimization problem in supply chain networks. Here, we propose a multi-period decentralized supply chain network model with uncertainty. The imprecision related to uncertain parameters like demand and price of the final produc...

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to examine when and how organizations build big data analytics capability to improve supply chain agility and gain competitive advantage. Design/methodology/approachWe grounded our theoretical framework in two perspectives the dynamic capabilities view (DCV) and contingency theory (CT). To test our research hypotheses, we gathered 173 usable-responses using a...
