Procurement, the process of obtaining materials or services, is a critical process for any organization. While procuring a set of items from different suppliers who may sell only a subset (bundle) of a desired set of items, it will be required to select an optimal set of suppliers who con supply the desired set of items. This is the optimal uendor selection problem. Bundling in procurement has ...

An Internet-based Virtual Private Network (IP-VPN) uses the open, distributed infrastructure of the Internet to transmit data between corporate sites. The configuration (network design) for a specific customer network typically requires the selection of network access lines and backbone sections that are provisioned by different organizations in a supply chain. Moreover, when configuring such a...

Firms are increasingly involving suppliers in new product development (NPD) and one reason for this is to access technological knowledge. Previous research argues that purchasing fulfils an important role in involving the suppliers in NPD. However, purchasing’s role under technological uncertainty has not been investigated in detail. The purpose of this paper is to explore purchasing’s role in ...

Numerous studies have demonstrated that firms consider multiple criteria when selecting key suppliers. In this study, we present, based on econometric choice modeling framework, how manufacturing managers/executives tradeoff between cost, delivery, flexibility, and service features in the supplier selection process, given acceptable quality. Empirical data for this study was collected from manu...

This data article provides detailed optimization input and output datasets and optimization code for the published research work titled "Dynamic green supplier selection and order allocation with quantity discounts and varying supplier availability" (Hamdan and Cheaitou, 2017, In press) [1]. Researchers may use these datasets as a baseline for future comparison and extensive analysis of the gre...

Supply chain management (SCM) is one of the most important competitive strategies used by modern enterprises. The main aim of supply chain management is to integrate various suppliers to satisfy market demand. Meanwhile, supplier selection and evaluation plays an important role in establishing an effective supply chain. Traditional supplier selection and evaluation methods focus on the requirem...

Supply chain management is concerned with the coordination of material and information flows in multi-stage production systems. Inventory management has long been treated as an isolated function solely focused on individual entities, taking into account concerned with single-vendor-single-buyer and single-vendormultiple-buyer-models. Concerning the supplier selection problem, quantitative model...
