A Supply Chain encompasses all activities in fulfilling customer demands and requests as shown in Figure 1.1. These activities are associated with the flow and transformation of goods from the raw materials stage, through to the end user, as well as the associated information and funds flows. There are four stages in a supply chain: the supply network, the internal supply chain (which are manuf...

Supply chains are distributed manufacturing systems composed of various resources belonging to different companies. The configuration of the supply chain network, integrated with Internet and web-based electronic market places, is essential for business to pursue a competitive advantage. This paper develops a model describing the integrated e-supply chain network and formulates a multi-criteria...

A supply chain is characterized by uncertain demands (demand-side uncertainty) and uncertainties associated with the performances of the production facilities (supply-side uncertainty). In this paper, a method is proposed to plan production in a supply chain with a multi-echelon supply process with unreliable production facilities working in markets with uncertain demand. In such a system it is...

today, companies need to make use of appropriate patterns such as supply chain management system to gain and preserve a position in competitive world-wide market. supply chain is a large scaled network consists of suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, retailers and final customers which are in coordination with each other in order to transform products from raw materials into finished goods wit...

A supply chain can be defined as an integrated business process wherein a number of various business entities (i.e., suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and retailers) work together. Supply chain configuration is concerned with determining supply, production and stock levels in raw materials, subassemblies at different levels of the given bills of material (BOM). End products and informatio...

Bullwhip effect has always been considered as one of the critical problems in a supply chain that negatively influences costs, inventory, reliability and other important business processes especially in upstream agents. This problem has become even more critical due to the increased complexity of global supply chains. This paper aims to develop a simulation approach based on system dynamics mod...

The process of developing appropriate supply chain performance measurement instruments is difficult due to the complexity of supply chains. This paper presents an overview and evaluation of the performance measurement instruments used in supply chain models. As a result it advances a framework for developing an innovative supply chain performance measurement instrument which is generally applic...
