Excessive greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector have led companies to move towards a sustainable supply chain network design. In this study we present new bi-objective non-linear formulation where multiple inventory components are integrated into location and routing decisions throughout network. To efficiently solve proposed model, implement an exact method four evolutionary ...

This work considers the strategic Supply Chain Network Design (SCND) problem, which is to define number and location of facilities, flow products among them fulfilling a long-term deterministic demand. A two-phase heuristic approach was specially developed solve large scale problems in reasonable time, extending previous algorithm introduced Farias et al. (2017). In construction phase, multi-st...

integrated production-distribution planning (pdp) is one of the most important approaches in supply chain networks. we consider a supply chain network (scn) to consist of multi suppliers, plants, distribution centers (dcs), and retailers. a bi-objective mixed integer linear programming model for integrating production-distribution designed here aim to simultaneously minimize total net costs in ...

Having a comprehensive evaluation model with reliable data is useful to improve performance of supply chain. In this paper, according to the nature of supply chain, a model is presented that able to evaluate the performance of the supply chain by a network data envelopment analysis model and by using the financial, intellectual capital (knowledge base), collaboration and responsiveness factors ...
