Supply chains are prone to disruptions and associated risks. To develop capabilities for risk mitigation, supply chains need to be flexible. A flexible supply chain can respond better to environmental contingencies. Based on the theoretical tenets of resource-based view, relational view and dynamic capabilities theory, the current study develops a relational model of supply chain flexibility co...

  Supply chain includes two or more parties linked by flow of goods, information, and funds. In a decentralized system, supply chain members make decision regardless of their decision's effects on the performance of the other members and the entire supply chain. This is the key issue in supply chain management, that the mechanism should be developed in which different objectives should be align...

Efficient supply chain management is crucial for survival and success in a turbulent world. Current economic crisis increases its importance even further. The paper reviews latest findings in the most relevant areas, namely the importance of a proper supply chain strategy that is a pre-condition for business process renovation and mitigation of supply chain connected risks. Performance measurem...

in this paper a two-stage supply chain with a buyer and seller have been studied. it is assumed that lead time is probabilistic and demand is fixed. in the decentralized model it can be observed each supply chain member try to make the decision to maximize their profits and it will effect on the other members of supply chain and in the comparison with centralized model with assuming the seller ...

Major construction and engineering projects pose high challenges at logistic planning, including numerous restrictions, risks and dynamic effects. Consequently many tasks cannot be effectively solved using conventional tools and methods. We propose an integrated planning procedure that adopts simulation techniques in order to consider the whole supply chain and incorporate operative processes a...

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...

over the years we have witnessed the growing importance of supply chain operations and supply chain management (scm), as supply chains play a major role in every step of the product life cycle. therefore, this paper will dea-based performance evaluation approaches for overall supply chain can be categorized. future perspectives and challenges are discussed
