In this paper, we present a dynamic model modified with emission permit banking and pollution abatement, and investigate the effect of emission permit banking and pollution abatement on the production–inventory strategy of the firm. After introducing emission permit banking and pollution abatement, the cost function consists of the inventory holding and production costs, the cost of investment ...

PURPOSE To compare the costs of femoral head banking versus bone substitutes. METHODS Records of femoral head banking from 1998 to 2008 were reviewed. The cost of allogenic cancellous bone graft was calculated by estimating the direct expenditure of femoral head procurement, screening tests, and storage, and then divided by the amount of bone harvested. RESULTS 326 females and 141 males (me...

An electronic-procurement system becomes important for governments to make their procurement procedures more efficient, effective, and transparent in order to decrease cost, corruption, and abuse of public resource, particularly in developing countries. However, the literature on the e-procurement system has been developed in a lop-sided manner. Many studies have been focused on the supply (gov...

In recent years the management of risk in supply chains has become an important issue in the scientific literature. This aspect is of primary interest in market side decisions of a company such as in the procurement of materials. So far, traditional supply chain planning methods solely focus on improving cost efficiency and reducing inventory buffers in supply chains. These approaches are succe...

BACKGROUND Medical device procurement processes for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are a poorly understood and researched topic. To support LMIC policy formulation in this area, international public health organizations and research institutions issue a large body of predominantly grey literature including guidelines, manuals and recommendations. We propose to undertake a systematic r...

INTRODUCTION Improving health systems performance, especially in low-resource settings facing complex disease burdens, can improve population health. Specifically, the efficiency and effectiveness of supply chains and procurement processes for pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other health products has important implications for health system performance. Pharmaceuticals, vaccines and other health ...
