  The increase of international competition motivated most of the organizations to create useful shared mutual cooperation with supply chain partners since they understood that cooperation and collaboration of supply chain partners is the prerequisite for the increase of reliability level and the decrease of risks and also the enhancement of innovative qualities and profitability of the companies in recent competitive and dynamic market. Integration of supply chain is an important strategy in creating cooperation and collaboration among different elements of supply chain, and plays a vital role in the enhancement of performance of the companies in supply chain. The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of supply chain integration on the performance of car part manufacturing companies. Current study follows a descriptive, analytical approach in which the correlation between the variables of sample under study is investigated. This sample includes 81 company which produce car parts with a grade A of SAPCO Company. Samples were selected through census in the initial phase. However in the second phase sampling was done through improbable and judgmental sampling. In order to testify hypothesis PLS method was used. The result of this study indicates that there is a direct effect between supply chain integration and improvement of operational performance of companies under investigation. Manuscript profile

  The balance between environmental regulations and economic issues has always been one of the main challenges of governments, because with the growth of industrialization, environmental pollution has also increased. Along with the desired outputs in the production process, may also produce undesirable outputs which have a great impact on organizations efficiency and environmental pollution. On the other hand, dealing with the impact of undesirable factors on the inputs and desirable outputs, valuable information for making strategies and organizational decisions could be achieved. Considering undesirable factors, this paper aims to calculate the relative efficiency and marginal ratios of environmental systems using weak and managerial disposability models of data envelopment analysis (DEA). This study is conducted in two phases. In the first one, the regions were classified into efficient and inefficient groups using a developed DEA model. In the second step, the marginal rate of undesirable outputs on the inputs and desirable outputs in efficient areas were calculated. The results showed that the change in the amount of undesirable outputs has a significant effect on other variables. Manuscript profile

  One of the most complex decision-making issues for stock exchange investors is the evaluation of companies' performance and their ranking in the next step, which can be done based on different approaches. In the paper, the industries of Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) evaluated during the years 2010 to 2019 and ranked by a combined fuzzy cognitive map (FCM), Electere III and linear assignment (LA) method. To this aim, first based on the literature review, 21 more cited criteria were selected as the main criteria in performance analysis of the TSE. Then, fuzzy cognitive map as a qualitative analytical tool, was applied to rank financial eavaluation criteria based on their intractions. Applying FCM, five criteria were determined as more important criteria for performance evaluation. In the the next step, all of the industries in TSE were evaluated in 10 years from 2011 to 2020 using the ELECTRE III as a powerfull MCDA method. Finally, LA method was applied for integrating the rank of industry in the 10 years period. The results indicate that insurance and pension industries, Industrial multidisciplinary and Food (except sugar), placed at the first to third ranks. Manuscript profile

  The aim of this research is to design scenarios based on cooperative game theory scenarios to examine the rewards and penalties observed from sharing or not sharing knowledge among companies. The statistical population of the study includes managers and experts from 10 subsidiary companies of the National Iranian Oil Company, among whom 10 senior managers were selected for pairwise comparisons using the snowball sampling method. The research method is classified as descriptive, applied, interpretive, exploratory, with a quantitative and qualitative nature. This study emphasizes the importance of efficient knowledge sharing as a means to foster cooperative in the investment portfolios of the National Iranian Oil Company to compete with foreign competitors during sanctions. By reviewing the results of the four scenarios derived from the game, it was observed that the rewards companies receive from sharing knowledge are dependent on the behavior resulting from knowledge sharing by other companies. The more capable an organization is in influential factors related to knowledge transfer and innovation; the more benefits companies will gain if they cooperate. Sensitivity analysis regarding the costs of project cooperative, which arises due to the difficulty of implementing joint projects, showed that as the costs increase, companies tend to shift from a cooperative strategy towards a retaliation strategy and then towards a non-cooperative strategy. The impact of companies' intellectual capital status on the selection of cooperative strategies was observed. Companies that decide to collaborate, if equipped with higher intellectual capital due to experience and empowerment, tend to prefer an optimal strategy towards cooperative. Manuscript profile
