One of the most fundamental components of healthcare system on each country is blood supply chain management. This chain is comprised of two significant components including collecting donor’ bloods and supplying blood’s products. The main purpose of this paper is to concentrate on supplying blood products and present a novel constrained bi-objective mathematical model for a two-echelon blood s...

taking advantage of the new technology, supply chain has already created a chain of cooperation among its own companies, and, in a larger scale, within a universal environment. superior to these technologies is rfid which is an abbreviation for radio frequency identification. rfid is one of the most advanced technologies in the contemporary world. perishable products and hose with short time ex...

traceability is an ability of system to provide status reports or records pertaining of the current situation in the past. in production systems, traceability to track the product or lot of a product and access to records in the entire production process (or part of the process) of the raw material to finished product that purchased and consumed by customer will be applied. traceability in prod...

traceability is a basic requirement for the most of products from the viewpoint of governments and customers. it has base of quality systems and supports integration of supply chain information systems. this paper has presented a holistic model for supply chain traceability through structural equation modeling. this model will support recall of products, quality assurance requirements, improve ...

Coordination is very important in supply chain management and it is one of the main factors in supply chain profitability. Bullwhip effect is one of the basic obstacles to achieve coordination in supply chains and reduction of this phenomenon has an important role in supply chain harmony. The other side, costs of supply chain can be mitigated and customer service level can be increased by reduc...

To help improve customer satisfaction management (CRM), greater emphasis is given to the aspect of quality in the supply chain. And improve supply chain performance through integrated business management and strategic partnerships. On the other hand, strategic supply chain management decisions are made at a company level that determine benefits and efficiencies of the supply chain and effective...

This paper provides a novel implementation of blockchain technology, and data is stored in decentralized distributed ledger to assist information protection blood supply chain management prevent loss or identity theft. The present used exclusively from the volunteers (known as donors), making its derivatives one significant roles treating diseases today. In particular, depending on type product...

background and objectives: a sudden jump in blood demand during natural disasters may have strong negative impact on the performance of blood supply chain. appropriate response to the emergency situations, requires predictive approach to determining the optimal allocation of blood supply chain resources for various disaster scenarios. the present study, thus, presents an optimization model aime...
