        1 - Suppliers selection problem in multiple sourcing case under uncertainty environment: models and solution procedures
        Leyla Fazli Ali Reza Eydi

        All existent activities in supply chain are to supply market demand by providing products with maximum quality, minimum price and in due date to customers. Due to suppliers have basic role on criteria: cost, quality, etc at access to the goals of supply chain, suppliers are a critical component of an organization that can have effect on the performance of the organization. Because of these diverse effects, accurate and efficient techniques application seems to be necessary for suppliers evaluation and selection and order allocation to them. Thus, a wide range of techniques to examine suppliers selection problem has been proposed by several researchers. Therefore, in this paper first the suppliers selection problem and process are explained. Then, methods and some studies for the each stage of the suppliers selection process are presented. Since suppliers selection problem often face with uncertainty and constraints for buyer and suppliers in real world, some done researchs in multiple sourcing field under uncertainty environment are only studied in the last stage of the suppliers selection process. Finally, conclusion and suggestions for future research are provided. Manuscript profile

        4 - A fuzzy hybrid approach for supplier selection and order allocation

        In this paper, a new hybrid approach in supplier selection and order allocation is proposed. At the first step, the supplier evaluating criteria and sub-criteria are determined and their relationships and degrees of importance are specified via the fuzzy ANP-DEMATEL method. Afterwards, regarding the high variety of purchasing items, they are categorized into four groups by the Fuzzy Inference system (Kraljik model) and suppliers in each group are ranked using the Fuzzy WASPAS method. The next step is to determine the order allocation of items in a multi-product, multi-period, multi-supplier mixed integer programming model with three objectives of minimizing the cost, maximizing total utility of the purchasing process and minimizing changes of selected suppliers as a new objective function. Finally, the LP metric method is applied to solve the proposed multi-objective model, and Pareto solutions of the problem are determined by changing the coefficients of the objectives in this method. The proposed approach is used for suppliers evaluation and order allocation in a chemical company with a high number of purchasing items and suppliers. The accuracy of results is confirmed by experts. Regarding the comprehensiveness of the proposed approach, its application increases the accuracy of suppliers evaluation and order allocation, and therefore its utilization in organizations is recommended.

        انتخاب تأمین‌کننده یک مسأله تصمیم‌گیری چندمعیاره است که هم فاکتورهای کمی و هم فاکتورهای کیفی را شامل می‌شود. به منظور انتخاب بهترین تأمین‌کننده نیاز به برقراری موازنه‌ میان فاکتورهای ملموس و غیر ملموسی است که برخی از آنها ممکن است با هم در تضاد باشند. هنگامی که شرایط تخفیف حجمی مطرح باشد، این مسأله قدری پیچیده‌تر می‌شود، در این تحقیق یک مدل برنامه‌ریزی چندهدفه جهت تخصیص سفارش به تأمین‌کنندگان‌ در شرایط تخفیف حجمی ارائه گردیده است. این مدل در حالت چند محصولی، با در نظر گرفتن معیارهای چندگانه و با محدودیت‌های ظرفیت تأمین‌کننده ارائه شده است. در این خصوص تأمین‌کنندگان تخفیفات قیمت را بر اساس حجم معامله پیشنهاد می‌دهند. الگوریتم حل مدل چند هدفه ارائه گردیده و این مدل با استفاده از یک مثال عددی نشان داده شده است.
