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 ...

This paper investigates the impact of provided service by the retailers and manufacturers on customers’ demand and members’ profit in a supply chain. It focuses on a supply chain structure with one manufacturer and a common retailer. The demand of customers depends on retailer price and service level. A game-theoretic framework is applied to obtain the equilibrium solutions for each entity in s...

We employ a value chain analysis approach to examine the forces shaping the industry structure, entry and inter-firm governance modes. Forty largest global and regional companies in the ethanol manufacturing stage have been classified according to their pre-entry industry of origin. Firms with pre-entry history in feedstock supply have shown higher resilient to market shock especially compared ...

In the face of demand disruptions, dual-channel supply chains (SCs) that lack resilience may be more vulnerable. Reaching moderate SC through coordination is essential for dealing with disruptions. This paper investigates operation management a fresh-food (FSC) under disruption. The centralized and decentralized decision models propose joint quality efforts based on consideration preference los...

With the development of global economy and energy supply chain, uncertainty complexity bauxite maritime chain (BMSC) has been further increased. Determining crucial risks improving chain’s resilient capacity based on operation objectives become important, in order to ensure sustainability competitiveness BMSC. This paper combines quality function deployment (QFD), a multi-criteria decision meth...

Purpose Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has disrupted global supply chains, revealing dreadful gaps and exposing vulnerabilities. Retailers are challenged to tackle risks organise themselves fit into the “new normal” scenario. This outbreak established a volatile environment for chains; it raised question of survival in market, forcing companies rethink resilient strategies be adopted post-...

The performance of a supply chain can be evaluated in either a cross-sectional or a time series manner, and data envelopment analysis is a useful method for both types of evaluation. In this paper we develop an index and indicator of productivity change that can be used with radial and non-radial models for supply chain malmquist index. The supply chain malmquist productivity index (SCMPI) can ...
