To manage supply chain disruptions, many diverse organizational cultures must work together to restore services and help ensure resiliency. We use a model of culture taken from social anthropology, economics and public management illustrated through two interorganizational cases of humanitarian supply chain disruption: the Federal Emergency Management Agency contracting with Universe Truck Line...

In today's turbulent and uncertain environment, every company is subject to supply chain disruption. Supply chain disruption can have severe negative consequences on supply chain performance. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify and prioritize components of resilience supply chain in Isfahan brick industry. The present study was applied and mixed. Purposeful sampling method was u...

Disruptions have become more commonplace in the globalised business environment; thus, many firms been attempting to find risk mitigation strategies (RMS) create robust and resilient supply chains. To this extent, study evaluates performance of various chains utilising different RMS cope with disruptions using optimisation simulation. In phase, mixed integer programming is used a three-echelon ...

Planning for supply water demands (drinkable and irrigation water demands) is a necessary problem. For this purpose, three subjects must be considered (optimization of water supply systems such as volume of reservoir dams, optimization of released water from reservoir and prediction of next droughts). For optimization of volume of reservoir dams, yield model is applied. Reliability of yield mod...

The work is focused on the study of a supply chain related to short life-cycle products, that are goods produced and sold for a limited period of time like fashion goods, electronic devices, health care service and particular foodstuffs. The case study belongs to the last one category and regards a particular good produced by an important Italian food company, with several branches all over the...

Sustainable supply chain management is a topical area which is continuing to grow and evolve. Within supply chains, downstream distribution from producers to customers plays a significant role in the environmental performance of production supply chains. With consumer consciousness growing in the area of sustainable food supply, food distribution needs to embrace and adapt to improve its enviro...

the manufacturing organizations today are having a competition of supply chain versus supply chain. existing research work fails to relate human metrics with supply chain performance. the authors intend to empirically assess the effects of human metrics on supply chain performance in the context of indian manufacturing organizations. a rigorous literature review has identified 12 variables. the...

One of complementary value propositions of microgrids is to improve power system resiliency via local supply of loads and curtailment reduction. This subject is investigated in this paper by proposing a resiliency-oriented microgrid optimal scheduling model. The proposed model aims at minimizing the microgrid load curtailment by efficiently scheduling available resources when supply of power fr...
