  Today supply chain network is recognized as the main bases in economic activity. Their significance is due to just in time delivery and the efficiency of different commodities including food, clothing, energy, computer hardware. This has stimulated researchers and experts to analyze supply chain problems. Meanwhile, uncertainty has penetrated every level of our lives and we encounter it every day. The present paper focuses on green supply chain that consider uncertainty conditions to solve a model for designing a forward green supply network (environmental)under uncertainty of future economic conditions in Iran Khodro Company. The problem of designing the aforementioned network includes hypotheses including multi-commodity, multi-layer and one-period. Due to inconsistent economic conditions, uncertainty has been differently tackled here as compared with previous literature. In this problem, several important parameters have been considered as indefinite including customers’ demands, operating expenses, the productive capacity and relocating capacity of facilities. The proposed model also considers the contamination of production section and the transportation system of the chain and tries to reduce it by suggesting an objective function and Eco-indicator 99 method. As well, production and distribution centers operate in a dual-purpose manner. Saving costs and reducing contamination due to applying transportation supplies and common infrastructures are among the benefits of this method. Considering the complexity of solving this problem and its NP-hard nature, the meta heuristic method of genetic algorithm with non-dominated sorting (NSGAII) was analyzed and finally model performance was examined with a numerical example and solving it with MATLAB and GAMS software.   Manuscript profile

  Undoubtedly, more attention is being made in the word service and industries that can be learnt from manufacturing for improving its production out puts and their associated quality and cost. These include such lean production, JIT, TQM, and the relationship between buyer, supplier and finally the customer satisfaction. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between three main components of production management in today’s industries namely supplier, buyer and engineer partnership in Iran Industries. An attempt also has been made to create closer collaboration in car manufacturing – and contemporary trends in production theory such as lean production, agile manufacturing and high performance production system. The model of Supply Network Leadership (SNL) has been developed in this paper for assessing the interrelationships between the supply chains with respect to the national objectives based on the national motivation of Iranian economics and industries. The SNL has a marco view on the interrelationships between the above mentioned objectives such as, imports substitution, export promotion, entrepreneurial activities, technology acquisition, quality of life improvement, etc. The leadership capabilities for any hierarchy determine the degree of size, complexity, executive penetration and power of network. The SNL acts like a cell, any resource absorption from the environment is the special task of BUYER, and all internal supporting and Human resource effectively and any associated processing is the special task of SUPPLIER and finally any duties related to growths, evolution and generation can be viewed as the special task of ENGINEER. We have argued that the SNL may hold lessons for the Iranian automobile manufacturing. The emphasis on flexibility and more customization may be especially appropriate. Manuscript profile

  Logistics Network Design includes network configuration decisions having long-standing influences on other tactical and operational decisions. Recently, regarding environmental issues and customer awareness and global warming closed-loop supply chain network design is taken into consideration. The proposed network for the integrated forward and reverse logistics is developed by formulating a cyclic logistics network problem which decisions for selecting the places of manufactories, distribution centers, dismantlers and disposal centers with the respective operating units were supported with the maximizing the profit. Moreover, the palaces of suppliers and customer zone are predefined in this model. Therefore, this paper presents a mixed integer quadratic programing for a dynamic multi-period multi-products closed-loop logistics network. The possibility of opening and closing of each facility at each period and expanding the capacities of facilities is the main feature of the proposed model. After model formulation, the credibility and the performance evaluation are investigated by numerical examples. Manuscript profile

  Modeling and optimal solving of supply chain management problems lead to efficient decision making in strategic planning and supply chain operations, resulting in a competitive advantage. Today, with the planning of a sustainable supply chain, in addition to achieving economic goals, it is possible to meet social and environmental objectives and considerations. This research deal with sustainable closed-loop supply chain network design and operations planning problem in which is human resource employment and training are considered. First, a three-objective optimization model is developed in which the supply chain network is designed and strategic variables (such as location and capacity determination, technology selection, skilled or semi-skilled employment and training, and etc.) are obtained. Then, a multi-period model is proposed supply chain operations planning in which the amount of production, inventory, shortage, temporary recruitment of manpower, etc. in each period are determined. In the proposed strategic model, a trade-off between the objectives of minimizing the cost of the supply chain (economic), maximizing employment (social), and minimizing environmental impacts is done by augmented epsilon constraint method. Also, Benders decomposition algorithm is used to solve large-scaled instances. In the final section of the research, some numerical studies are presented to provide numerical results, managerial insights and evaluating the performance of the proposed model and solution approaches.

  The Supply Chain is considered a necessity for the success of organizations seeking the most economic, environmental and social impacts. In addition, the implementation and suitable execution of this supply chain seems to be necessary. Considering the importance of the social impacts of this supply chain, a fuzzy multi-objective mathematical model is provided such that, in addition to considering the environmental and economic impacts, social impacts are also considered. In order to approximate the provided model to real-world conditions, some parameters are considered under conditions of uncertainty and in the form of triangular fuzzy numbers. A two-step method is provided to solve the proposed model. In the first step, the model converges to a determinate multi- objective problem using the necessity measure and in the second step the model is solved using the cumulative function method .Finally, to show the applicability of the proposed method, a real industrial case study is provided.

  One of the most complicated decision making problems for managers in supply chain is the evaluation of supply chain performance which can be done in different ways. Though several studies have been developed on supply chain performance evaluation based on balanced scorecard (BSC), a few studies focused on relationships among four perspectives of BSC. This paper focuses on these relationships, especially on relationships with feedback structures. For this purpose, after identification of the BSC’s more important factors in evaluation of the suppliers, DEMATEL technique is employed to determine feedback relationships among these factors and to attain to the critical factors from the influential and to be influenced point of view. Next, these factors are used as the inputs and outputs of data envelopment analysis (DEA) weak disposability model in presence of undesirable factors to evaluate the suppliers and determine their efficiency scores. Finally, the efficient units were ranked based on the Anderson-Peterson (AP) super efficiency model. The proposed procedure is applied as a framework to evaluate the suppliers of Pars Khazar Company.

  Rapid development toward globalization, a competitive market, significant technological advances, and high customer expectations have encouraged companies to reduce costs and increase their competitive advantage. One of the things that can help companies achieve a competitive advantage is supply chain management. Information acts as an intermediary between all activities and operations within the supply chain. The innovation of this research can be shown in two aspects of application and modeling. In terms of application, with a review of the literature and investigating the application of multi-stage and network data development analysis in the supply chain, it was revealed that so far, the efficiency of financial and physical flows in the literature has been evaluated more and the indicators are mostly related to two financial and physical flows in the supply chain, therefore there is more research opportunity to evaluate the efficiency of information flow within the supply chain. Measuring the efficiency of information flow should be an integral part of supply chain management. Therefore, this research aimed to present a model to evaluate the efficiency of information flow in the supply chain. In terms of mathematical modeling, research innovation is considering the model of the network and reversible relationship in the supply chain. With a review of the literature, the indicators are investigated to evaluate the efficiency of information flow in the supply chain, and the validity of indicators is examined by the fuzzy Delphi method. Then the decision making unit and inputs and outputs of the model are introduced. In this research, the fuzzy network data envelopment analysis is used. In order to implement the models, we used the GAMS software. Manuscript profile

  This paper designs a mathematical model for supply chain network design problem including plants, distributors and customers in fuzzy environment. Each plant and distributor has several levels capacities. A multi-mode demand strategy is considered for the customers where only one of the modes is to be selected for each customer. Considering the acceptance degree of fuzzy constraints violated, a method for solve the problem is proposed. For this aim, we proposed an order relationship for trapezoidal fuzzy numbers using their interval expectation value. According to this order relationship, the fuzzy supply chain network problem is converted to an interval supply chain network problem. Then, by combining the order relationship between intervals and acceptance degree of fuzzy constraints violated, the problem is transformed into a bi-objective program model and is solved by the global criterion method. Finally, in order to, show the effectiveness of the proposed approach, several test problems are solved in various sizes. Manuscript profile

  One of the most important issues in managers' decisions is supplier selection and supply chain evaluation. Therefore, several studies have been conducted on supplier selection and evaluation by data envelopment analysis. But studies so far have focused on selecting suppliers and evaluating them. And there is no way to determine the number of suppliers in a supply chain. Therefore, in this article, we first express the concept of profit efficiency for supply chains and using the proposed model in this paper, the number and type of suppliers in a supply chain are determined simultaneously. Finally, 10 "supply chains" in the food industry were examined and the profit efficiency of each of them was calculated using the proposed model in this article, and then the number and type of suppliers in each chain were determined.

  Among the types of supply chain risks disruptions are risks that resulting from natural disasters, sanctions, transportation problems and equipment failure. These risks can seriously disrupt the flow of materials, information and cash flow. This study proposes a hybrid model for managing, evaluating and rating disorders. In this research, by presenting a mathematical model with disruption parameter, supply chain disruption risk assessment is investigated. Initially, the relationships between the disturbances are formulated by fuzzy DEMATEL technique, and the DEMATEL output as a weighted parameter, and then the model is solved using meta-heuristic algorithms, genetic and local search methods. Finally, the disruptions are evaluated and ranked based on the costs incurred in the chain, and then the number of appropriate suppliers for each disruption is determined. Manuscript profile

  Supply chain management is essential for the success of firms and customer satisfaction. In addition, a suitable performance evaluation system is vital to the effective management of the supply chain. Due to the importance of cost management in the supply chain, an approach based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is proposed in the current study for evaluating the cost efficiency of closed-loop supply chains while dual-role factors and undesirable outputs exist. DEA is a beneficial mathematical programming method for evaluating and analyzing the relative efficiency of decision maker units with multiple inputs and outputs. Indeed, in this study, the cost efficiency scores of supply chains with three components, supplier, manufacturer and repair and recycling, as well as forward and reverse flows are measured using DEA technique. The assumption of weak disposability on undesirable outputs is considered. Also, a case study is provided to illustrate and to analyze the proposed method. The results show a correct identification of the role of the factors and the incorporation of the undesirable and reversible factors in supply chain systems play the important role in the correct calculation of the cost efficiency in each of components and whole supply chain. Moreover, in the introduced method, the overall cost efficiency can be represented as the weighted sum of the cost efficiency of components. Manuscript profile

  Nowadays, managing a supply chain is turned to be one of the fundamentals of business process. In doing so, investigating and analyzing each and every of the processes and selecting the best of each process is an important challenge for strategic managers. In this paper Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique is used and a model is provided for selecting the best suppliers with flexible inputs and outputs. Here, suppliers according to the different requirements of the next stage can be flexible for providing the already forecasting alterations. As an instance, transporting one of the flexible outputs can be considered which can be sent from the earth, sea, or the air. This has the direct effect on the selection of the best suppliers and according to this selection the new chain will be selected in accordance to the requirements of the whole chain. In this paper, according to DEA models and the binary algorithm, a new model will be presented for suppliers. Manuscript profile

  Introduction: Supply chain risk management is very important for effective supply chain management. In the meantime, the healthcare supply chain and its risks need more attention given its important mission. Concerning the sensitivity of blood and its supply chain, the purpose of this study is to investigate the risks of the blood supply chain and their relations in Tehran. Methods: In this descriptive-analytical study, the risks of blood supply chain were selected by reviewing the articles and expert opinions through interviews and questionnaires. The most important ones were identified using risk matrix and expert opinions, and their relationships were discussed using DEMATEL method. Results: The 19 most important risks were identified. Also, according to the Demetel method, it was shown that in terms of the importance of risks (D + R), selection of inappropriate suppliers (2.25), lack of appropriate budget allocation (2.23), low employee productivity (2.16) and inadequate blood inventory (2.01) were identified as the most important risks. In terms of mutual influences (D-R), economic and political sanctions (1.68) were selected as the most influencing and inadequate response to hospital demand (-0.89) as the most influenced risk. Conclusion: After identifying the risks that are both significant and most influencing, such as the risks of lack of appropriate budget allocation, sanctions, exchange rate fluctuations, and catastrophes, in order to improve supply chain performance and prevent future problems, the factors that cause these risks need to be focused. And for controlling them, appropriate strategies, especially management strategies should be adopted. Manuscript profile

  In this research, the effective factors that determine the relationship between industrial buyers and suppliers are identified, and the concept of satisfaction, as an important factor, is able to minimize the supply process of primary materials and of the product from the order time until delivery time through elements such as commitment, cooperation, communication, trust, adaptation of expectation, and long-term orientation. This concept also is able to provide synergy, which consequently leads to buyers’ satisfaction. The main purpose of this research is to analyze the concept of satisfaction in firm-supplier relationships (in the viewpoint of industrial buyers). Applicable purposes of this research are to examine the relationship between satisfaction and trust, trust with commitment in the supply chain, and the relationship of commitment with buyers’ satisfaction and long-term orientation in the supply chain from an industrial buyer’s perspective. The statistical database in this research is all of food factory managers in Esfahan, and the required data is collected by questionnaires. The research method is a descriptive one; for description of findings, frequency distribution tables are used, along with correlation test and path analysis with SPSS software. Eight hypotheses are used and six hypotheses are accepted. The results of this research indicate that trust, adaptation to expectations, communication, and cooperation have an effective and meaningful relationship with satisfaction. In addition, trust and satisfaction have positive relationships with commitment. The implications and results of this study can be applied by industrial marketers, organizational buyers, management consultants, and business educators who may use the empirically tested model as a diagnostic and monitoring tool in guiding business relationships in the proper direction.

  The effectiveness and efficiency of each organization is the result of management performance and its supply chain structure. In order to optimizing the total costs, lead time and transportation system's reliability in all levels of supply chain network, a multi-objective mixed integer linear programming has been used in this paper. This mathematical modeling has addressed the design of a four-echelon supply chain structure, including multiple suppliers, multiple manufacturers, multiple distributors, and several customers. Optimizing costs has been considered based on the uncertainty of customers' demand. Also, the shortage of products is eligible in the mathematical modeling. In this paper, the uncertain demand is converted to deterministic by using Chance - Constrained Programming (CCP) approach. Due to the complexity of the model structure in large sizes, this paper has also proposed a meta-heuristic algorithm called Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGAII) as a solving method and the results have been analyzed. Finally, in order to validate the efficiency of the proposed meta-heuristic method, we compared the results in both the exact solution of the model and the proposed algorithm in small sizes.

  This paper develops a balanced scorecard for supply chain management (SCM) that measures and evaluates day-to-day business operations from following four perspectives: finance, customer, internal business process, and learning and growth. The paper further suggests that a balanced SCM scorecard can be the foundation for a strategic SCM system provided that certain development guidelines are properly followed, appropriate metrics are evaluated, and key implementation obstacles are overcome. The balanced scorecard developed in this paper provides a useful guidance for the practical managers in evaluation and measuring of SCM in a balanced way and proposes a balanced performance measurement system to map and analyze supply chains. While suggesting balanced scorecard, different SCM performance metrics have been reviewed and distributed into four perspectives. This helps managers to evaluate SCM performance in a much-balanced way from all angles of business.   Manuscript profile

  Introduction. The increasing trend of food waste is one of the serious challenges in mostcountries, especially developing countries, to meet the sufficient food needs of society. In thisstudy, the thermodynamic performance of two traditional bread production chains isexamined. These two chains contain the fresh bread production and the double-baked breadproduction chain (without waste).Materials and Methods: The calculations are based on the processing of 1000 kg of doughfor all eight bread chains. Lavash, Barbari, Tafton and Sangak breads produced had a mass ofabout 0.145, 0.410, 0.220 and 0.500 kg, respectively. In order to make an exergic comparisonbetween the bread production chains, the moisture content in both technologies for all Lavash,Barbari, Tafton and Sangak breads were 9.5, 34.1, 19.9 and 17.8 percent, respectively. Dataanalysis was done using two software “ees” and “ e! Sankey “.Results: The chemical exergy flows were found to be much larger than the physical exergyconsumed in all the bread chains studied. In the traditional bread production chain, lavashbread, baked twice, with the amount of 78.52%, Sangak with the amount of 76.06%, Barbariwith the amount of 70.64% and fresh Sangak bread with the amount of 70.29% had the bestexergy performance. The lowest total lost and irreversible exery were found in 1000 kg ofprocessed dough in the following breads: double-baked Lavash with the amount of (2910megajoules), Sangak bread with the amount of (3288 megajoules), fresh Sangak bread withthe amount of (3862 megajoules). And Taftoon bread double-baked (3921 megajoules).Lowest specific exergy loss and best thermodynamic performance was observed in doublebakedLavash bread (3.80), Sangak bread (3.91), Tafton bread (5.23) and Barbary bread(5.24), respectively. Combining exergy analysis and its application in the field of supply chainmanagement and management sciences are among the innovations of the present study.Conclusion: Most of the energy loss (non-material) occurs during the cooking, cooling, andfreezing stages. Therefore, any progress in the production of traditional bread should befocused on the design of effective thermodynamic processes of these three stages and the useof appropriate technologies.

  Background and Objective: Cellulose industries are closely related to forests and natural resources, and on the other hand, the chemicals used in them are sometimes transferred to nature. Therefore, they can affect the environment in two ways and therefore have an urgent need for management with a green approach, especially in the field of supply chain. Achieving this is possible by finding the most effective factors in implementing green supply chain management in this industry, which has been done in this research. In previous similar studies, the weight of the same factors has often been considered, and in addition, the weight of the interviewees has been considered the same when collecting data. In this paper, both problems have been solved by using EDAS-SEM methods and a more valid ranking of the components of green supply chain management in the cellulose industry has been presented.To provide a green supply chain management model in the cellulose industry, including transparent factors and accurate weights so that it can be used to measure the performance of managers in this area and to suggest the most effective factors for future promotion to managers.Material and Methodology: This research is qualitative and survey in how to collect data and quantitative in processing them. In terms of practical purpose and in terms of method, it is mixed. Modeling and analysis methods include entropy, EDAS, SEM. The statistical population is 63 managers of Qom cellulose production industries, for whom a questionnaire was sent in 2019, and 55 were completed. Therefore, sampling method, sample is available. Data collection tool is a questionnaire and data analysis tool is confirmatory factor analysis with partial least squares approach and SmartPLS3 software. Excel was used for entropy and EDAS calculations.Findings: The most important indicators of green supply chain performance in Qom cellulose products industries are selecting suppliers with environmental criteria, determining environmental requirements for purchasing items and auditing compliance with environmental regulations. Also, the weight of managers varies according to the characteristics of the elites. These findings can be generalized to other cellulose industries.Discussion and Conclusion:  The proposed model can be used for a better future in the management of the green supply chain of cellulose industries by evaluating the performance of managers in senior and middle levels at the organizational and unit levels. The achievements of this research can also be used to identify the most important factors at each level and allocate future resources to them.  Manuscript profile

  Background and Objective: With the increasing number of environmental problems, it is very important to pay attention to environmental standards in the supply chain and has led to the creation of a green supply chain that causes the least damage to the environment. Evaluating, ranking and selecting a green supplier in the supply chain is important in order to reduce costs and achieve more profit and thus increase the efficiency and performance of the supply chain. The purpose of this article is to evaluate and select the best green suppliers of wind farm equipment using SELKA proposed approach and to prioritize suppliers according to economic and environmental criteria in the supply chain using this method. Material and Methodology: In this paper, a hybrid approach called SELKA method is presented, which is a combination of data envelopment analysis methods and hierarchical analysis process, and the crossover matrix of efficiency is used instead of the matrix of weights. Findings: The most important advantage of the proposed approach is to simultaneously consider the efficiency of suppliers and evaluate them according to the existing criteria, which is not considered in any of the decision-making methods, and thus leads to a more accurate and efficient evaluation of suppliers. Discussion and Conclusion: In order to validate SELKA's proposed method, the issue of evaluation and selection of green suppliers in wind power plants is discussed and the results are compared with similar methods. The results show the superiority of the proposed method of the article in the ranking of suppliers and selects more efficient suppliers. Manuscript profile

  Background and Objective: The Purpose of this research is Provide a Combined Model of Q-Analysis and Interpretation of Environmental Risk of Technologically Sustainable Supply Chain. Material and Methodology: Based on this, first, the components and propositions of the risks of the sustainable were identified by the research experts and then, based on the link analysis, which includes the analysis of internal links and the relationships between links and the systemic impact of links to determine the most important element of a connection between the statements of components related to the technological risks sustainable supply chain. Findings: Accordingly, the three components of the economic risk of a sustainable technological supply chain; the social risk of the technologically stable supply chain and the environmental risk of the technologically sustainable supply chain were determined in the form of 28 initial propositions, they entered the Delphi analysis section in order to reach the theoretical adequacy level. In this section, 21 final propositions were approved in the second phase of Delphi analysis. Discussion and Conclusion: It was also found that the two propositions of lack of desirable standards and lack of institutional oversight in waste control and the impact of natural disasters due to the geographical impossibility of technology development are considered as the most effective environmental risk measures of sustainable supply chain.

  Background and Objective: Environmental pollution and dependency on fossil fuels are the most important incentives for the development of biofuels in Iran. Microalgae are introduced as one of the best raw materials for the production of biofuels in the world. In addition, for the production of microalgae, the emissions from power plants are used which leads to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere. Method: This paper proposes a microalgae-based biofuel supply chain network design model to study the development of such fuels. First, a deterministic model was developed to model the all activities of the supply chain including provision of raw materials for the production of microalgae, microalgae cultivation, turning them into biofuel and eventually biofuel distribution. Then, the deterministic model was extended to a robust network design model to achieve a safe and stable supply chain decisions in the face of uncertainty. Findings: Results of using the proposed model for the development of microalgal biofuel production show that the cost biofuel production from microalgae is 88.5 thousand Rials per liter. Discussion and Conclusion: Current production cost of microalgae-based biofuel cannot compete with that of fossil fuel, but the cost can be significantly decreased with a slight increase in algae productivity or oil content in future.

  Background and Objective: Today, design of a supply chain network which balances economic and environmental issues is attractive not only for researchers and practitioners, but also for managers and industrial decision makers. Method: This study introduces a bi-objective supply chain network which uses a fuzzy approach in order to include uncertainty in parameters of the model and apply it to a real case. Moreover, this model takes environmental and economic issues into account simultaneously. This consideration occurs in production and recovery technologies. Furthermore, the aim of the represented model is to choose the optimal production technology at all centers, the optimal production planning, facilities and location and the optimal number of those technologies which must be purchased. The fuzzy model is converted to an auxiliary crisp model by Jimenez approach and then solved with є-constraint. For the large sized problems, the Multi Objective Differential Evolutionary algorithm (MODE) is applied. Findings: It was shown that the cost objective functions and CO2 emission objective function are in conflict with each other, implying that any increase in one of them leads to decrease of another one and vice versa. Totally, it can be concluded that the -constraint method and the MODE method are appropriate and qualified methods for solving the auxiliary crisp model of supply chain network design problems.

  Background and Objective: Supply chain sustainability is one of the newfound concepts in operation and production management that emphasizes on social and enviromental issues beside financial performance in network organizations. The aim of this study is to identify and prioritize the factors contributing to supply chain sustainability in food industries. To achieve these goals, in the first step, it is attempted to identify the factors affecting a sustainable agriculture supply chain (citrus fruits). Method: In this step, extensive literature review in relation to sustainable agriculture/food supply chain was identified, and the overall indicators affecting the agricultural supply chain were extracted. In the second step, the extracted factor indicators were categorized in sustainable supply chain dimensions (economic, social, and environmental) in agriculture sector (citrus fruits). In the next step, by using analytic network process technique, the weight of criteria was identified. Findings: In this section, the pairwise comparisons and relative weights were calculated by Super Decision software and after the formation of super matrixes, the final weights of 9 main indicators of supply chain sustainability in agricultural sector were determined. Conclusion: The obtained results reveal that efficiency and market focus, water consumption, energy consumption, waste recycling, transport, volume of hiring, the quality of hire, and balance in hiring are the most important criteia. According to the experts’ judgement, economic dimension (0.488) had a heavier weight compared to two ather dimensions of sustainability. This implies that it is a necessity to pay attention to the efficiency of the energy sector and sustainable agriculture supply chain in our country. Manuscript profile

  Today, one of the most important management issues of organizations is the management of their supply chain financial flows, which plays a significant role in the growth of the organization. This issue has necessitated the necessity of paying attention to the sustainable supply chain management system from the financial perspective. The purpose of this study is to design a model for the relationship between the variables affecting the sustainable supply chain system from the financial perspectives and using the system's dynamics. In this research, after identifying the effective variables on the chain, a model was developed to show the dynamics of these variables using the system dynamics method. Validation of the model was carried out using evaluation tests and vsnym software at Pegah Tehran Company as a case study. In the following, scenarios for different modes of the proposed model variables were designed and implemented. The research results show that the designed model increases the supply chain sustainability based on financial factors, which ultimately affects the profitability of the chain. Manuscript profile

  Background and Objective: Sustainable supply chain management is a new approach in the discussion of supply chain management, which is considered based on the concepts of sustainability triangle (Economic, Environmental, Social). In the meantime, choosing a sustainable supplier is a strategic key to success in managing the sustainable supply chain of organizations. Choosing the best supplier according to different and sometimes conflicting criteria complicates the problem that using multi-criteria decision making methods is one of the best ways to solve these problems. On the other hand, the choice of supplier is strongly dependent on the opinion of decision makers, and due to the incompleteness of available information, we face a kind of uncertainty. Material and Methodology:  In this paper, the issue of choosing a sustainable supplier in Cement Company is examined. To do this, the combined SWARA and CoCoSo fuzzy approach was used to weight the criteria and rank the suppliers. In the first stage, after collecting the criteria for selecting a sustainable supplier based on the research literature, the criteria were weighted using experts and the F-SWARA method. Findings: The weighting results showed that the economic dimension (0.555) had the highest importance and the environmental (0.296) and social dimensions (0.146) were in the second and third places. Among the criteria, product price (0.284), environmental standards (0.154) and product quality (0.140) gained the highest weight, respectively. Supplier ratings were then calculated using the new F-CoCoSo method, and supplier ratings were obtained for final decision. Discussion and Conclusion: According to the criteria of a sustainable supply chain in this study, managers and owners of various industries and businesses according to the findings of this study can choose the right supplier who lives from all three economic dimensions. Environmentally and socially appropriate, take steps and enjoy its benefits. Manuscript profile

  In today's global business, competition is very intense between organizations and to impress clients, organizations need to put themselves in a better position than competitors. Environmentally friendly and compatible with environmental requirements are the way to distinguish from other competitors. If the competitors have benefited from the green supply chain management, the company will be under greater pressure to establish a green supply chain management. Customers also have an important role to deploy. Thus, strategic management, green supply chain is requirement for success in today's competitive market and should be considered seriously.  The aim of this study was to identify and rank the green supply chain management strategies using ANP method. Numbers of criteria identified in this study are 14 criteria in four categories: green design, green shopping, green manufacturing and marketing. The results showed that among the four risk-based strategies, efficiency-oriented, innovation-driven closed loop, efficiency-oriented strategy is the optimal strategy. In addition, the standard of green design has the highest priority. Manuscript profile

  Background and Objective: Due to the growing importance of environmental issues in organizations, the present study investigates the impact of external pressures and internal impetus on organizational performance by considering the mediating role of green supply chain adoption and green procurement. Material and Methodology: This study is categorized as applied and descriptive. The statistical population of the study consists of managers and experts of Iran Khodro Industrial Molds Company, that number was 331 people. The sample size was calculated based on Cochran's formula to be 178 people. For sampling, the available sampling method was used and data collection was done by a researcher-made questionnaire. The content validity of the questionnaire was confirmed using expert's opinion and its reliability was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. In order to data analysis, the structural equation modeling method (SEM) and Amos software have been used. Findings: Findings indicate that external pressures with the mediating role of green supply chain management adoption and green procurement have a positive significant effect on organizational performance. In addition, the effect of internal impetus on performance was confirmed by the mediating role of green supply chain management adoption. Discussion and Conclusions: Based on the findings, it can be said that the organization's actions to adapt to the environment and meet environmental requirements, is a way to differentiate from competitors. The use of a green supply chain, in addition to the organization benefits from the advantages of savings, can also maximize the profitability of the organization by creating innovation in the design and production of environmentally friendly products.

  The economic growth of any country has a lot to do with the infrastructure of the electrical energy supply chain and the ability to access it at low cost. Increasing the resilience of the electric energy supply chain in order to be able to respond to the real time demand of high-consumption and strategic consumers is a challenge that will not be possible without considering long-term demand forecasting and integrated development planning of this chain. This paper presents a long-term demand forecasting approach in the electrical energy supply chain of Isfahan's Espidan iron stone industries. This approach is a combination of wavelet transform, long short-term memory (LSTM) network and finally integrating the results with data-mining technique based on machine learning. The company studied in this research is one of the main suppliers of raw materials in the supply chain of basic metal production industries and one of the ten energy-intensive industries in the electrical energy supply chain of Isfahan province. The only information available from this company is the daily time series signal of the historical electrical energy demand of this industry in a period of 40 months. The data in the studied time series is interrupted so that only 50% of the data has a value and the remaining 50% is zero. This lack of data and the impossibility of access to supplementary data and effective features for forecasting has reduced the density of data and the possibility of long-term demand forecasting faces more problems than continuous time series. The used statistical analysis showed that the annual and seasonal data do not follow the normal distribution and have high distortion and heterogeneity. The proposed method and its results have been compared with other available approaches. The results of 10 iterations of extreme learning machine methods show that the RELM technique with a high confidence level of 95% is more effective than other machine learning methods and has more accurate results.

  Despite the numerous benefits of globalization and the emergence of advanced technologies, they have put the sustainable supply chain in subject to the social, economic, environmental risks. The aim of this study is to develop a new approach to identify and prioritize the risks involved in sustainable supply chain by using the failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) technique. In this way, the fuzzy sets theory is applied to calculate the risk priority numbers with regard to the fuzzy importance coefficients of risk factors including probability of occurrence, severity and detectability for each risk factor. However, proposed approaches have a computational inefficiency in ranking the fuzzy priority numbers. The fuzzy weighted geometric mean and linear programming model is used in a different way to determine the fuzzy risk priority numbers and then the fuzzy preference relations is applied to compare these numbers for prioritizing sustainability risk factors. Risk factors of the sustainable supply chain in the battery industry are identified and then prioritized by the cross-functional team by using the proposed method. The results show that the approach is capable to provide similar results than other ones with a high computational performance. Manuscript profile

  The increasing speed of technological change, on the one hand, and the changing nature of customer demand and the intensification of competition among organizations, on the other hand, have led organizations to seek to take on new competitive advantages to outperform competitors and better meet customer needs. Achieving such goals comes in the context of a new concept called "organizational agility," but agility of the organization is influenced by its agents, which are the most influential factor in service companies. In this research, which the University of Science and Research has proposed as a case study, the employees are divided into three categories: Soft, Grievous, and Blind. These factors determine the three main elements of the agility of the supply chain organization: Agility drivers, agility abilities and agility capability. Also, using a particle swarm optimization algorithm, an intelligent model has been designed to measure the impact and impact of factors on each other. And after implementing the model in a case study at Time = 769, recovery is at best possible. Manuscript profile

  In this paper, a bi-objective mixed integer linear programming (BOMILP) model is developed for a pharmaceutical supply chain network design (PSCND) problem. The model helps to make several decisions about the strategic issues such as opening of pharmaceutical manufacturing centers and main/local distribution centers along with optimal material flows over a mid-term planning horizon as the tactical decisions. It aims to concurrently minimize the total costs and flow times as the first and second objective functions. Since the critical parameters are tainted with great degree of epistemic uncertainty, a robust possibilistic programming approach is used to handle uncertain parameters. In order to verify and analyze the proposed model, it is tested on a real case study according to Iran’s National Organization of Food & Drug’s data. Finally, a well-known multi-objective decision making (MODM) techniques i.e. the ɛ-constraint method is applied to yield both trade-off surface and final preferred compromise solution for the real case study whose results were also comprehensively analyzed.

  Todays, the success of organizations, is directly related to the knowledge that they can generate and distribute, the speed of producing, the amount of accumulation and usage of this knowledge. On the other hand, environmental concerns about manufacturing industries induce organizations to use green practices in various supply chain processes. The successful implementation of knowledge management in the green supply chain improves the efficiency, effectiveness, profitability and competitive advantage of organizations. Since the implementation of knowledge management requires a lot of time and cost, the present study examines the success rate of knowledge management in the green supply chain based on fuzzy decision making. In this paper, after reviewing the literature, five main dimensions including employee attributes, organizational strategy, organizational culture, technological factors and management factors and 25 indicators for assessing the success of knowledge management in the green supply chain are determined. Using the opinions of 10 experts of Farasanat company, 21 indicators of knowledge management success in the green supply chain have been identified and the weight of each index is calculated by using the FDEMATEL method. In the next step, the rank of each index is calculated with by FSAW. Finally, by using the calculated weight and index rank, the success rate of knowledge management implementation in the green supply chain is determined. The results show that Farasanat company has a success rate of 0.72 in implementing knowledge management in the green supply chain. Manuscript profile

  The cooling supply chain, due to its high energy consumption and refrigerant emissions, has high levels of greenhouse gas emissions and is one of the largest carbon emitters. In the cold supply chain, products should be stored at low and near or below freezing points. For this purpose, refrigerated warehouses and refrigerated trucks are essential. Therefore, this research aims to design a linear multi-objective decision-making model for supply chain management Which aims to reduce the overall supply chain cost, including the cost of capacity, transportation, inventory as well as costs associated with the effects of global warming due to greenhouse gas emissions. To analyze the research problem, a mathematical model for optimizing the supply chain has been designed and genetic algorithm has been used to solve this problem. The results of the first function test indicate that the model is high in the number of customers, and when the distributor's number is equal to the number of producers, the best one is possible. The second function analysis concludes that reducing the restoration time of the facility is effective in minimizing the first function, reducing costs and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, according to the stated contents and the results obtained in this research, it can be pointed out that by optimizing the vehicles and also the proper use of the optimal number of means of transport, it can be expected that the pollution and proliferation of gases The greenhouse is at least possible.

  Today, ensuring the sustainable development of any organization depends on the Optimal conservation and utilization of limited resources and irreplaceable for sustainable Social and Economic Development in that country. For this reason, sustainable supply chain management has become an interesting topic for researchers and industry managers. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationships and levels of sustainable supply chain management incentives. The statistical population of the study is Persian Gulf petrochemical industry. The research method was descriptive-analytical. From the research literature, 12 instances of sustainable supply chain management incentives were identified. Then, by collecting data and determining the relationship between drivers, using interpretive structural modeling and MicMac are analyzed. The results of this study showed that third level metrics including information technology empowerment, institutional pressures, social values and ethics, and commitment and strategy of the company were the influencing factors on other criteria. Also green inventory variables, strategic supplier partnerships, environmental conservation, continuous improvement, internal pressures, economic stability and green product design are affected by other variables and in themselves have no effect on other factors. Logistic optimization criterion is also influenced by level 3 variables and affects level 1 variables. in the MicMac analysis, the results also indicate that the variables of all three levels are considered to be link interface variables. And that means they are highly influential, and every small change to these variables causes a major change in the system. Manuscript profile

  The purpose of this study is to provide a model in determining the impact of block-chain technology on supply chain performance in the automobile industry using a fuzzy inference system design. In terms of purpose, this research is considered as applied research. The statistical population is the managers of three automobile industrial companies in Iran, including IranKhodro, Saipa, and ModiranKhodro. The statistical sample size of 36 people was selected by a combination of two methods: Nonprobability sampling (Judgmental) and Snowball sampling. Using library and field studies, the factors and sub-factors of the research have been selected. After library studies, seventeen sub-criteria in three main criteria of attenuating, amplifier, and possibility were identified as a conceptual model. After Gaussian fuzzy, 125 rules are set, based on experts' opinions. According to the results, if the changes in the attenuating interval are more than 0.5, it will reduce the performance, and if it is less than 0.5, it will not have much effect on the performance. If the changes in the amplifier and possibility intervals are less than 0,5, it creates a moderate level of change in performance. And if greater than 0.5, it will increase performance output. To validate and ensure its efficiency, Extreme Condition test has been used. The results of test for three SUB-FIS and all the designed FIS, showed reasonable behavior towards the limit’s values of the inputs, which indicates the validity of the designed model and that means the system has good accuracy and validity of the evaluation.

  In a supply chain network, implementing a sound management system in the process of shipment can lead to lower costs and increase customer satisfaction by improving the flow of products. Therefore, in this study, a multi-objective mathematical model was presented and solved to optimize the vehicle routing problem by locating the warehouse in the green supply chain while simultaneously receiving and delivering goods. The main limitations considered in this model include manufacturers' capacity, vehicle capacity, vehicle selection based on green supply chain criteria, vehicle routing and cross-stock warehouse location to minimize costs and fuel consumption and reduce pollution. In this case, the goods received from suppliers will be delivered to customers on the route after being categorized in a cross-stock warehouse or delivered directly to customers if necessary. It is assumed that product pickup and delivery are allowed on a single route and there is also a planning horizon for receiving products on the go. In general, the model aims to determine the best route in the green supply chain mode and the optimal number of vehicles used in the distribution network so that the total operating and relocation costs are minimized. The proposed model was validated using Gams software and Comprehensive Criterion Method and the results were evaluated in accordance with the articles presented in this efficient field and compared to similar articles.

  Bullwhip effect that occurs in the chain, leads to inefficiencies such as excess inventory and overdue orders during the chain. These problems can be reduced by appropriate predictions. Forecasting must be done in all levels of a supply chain. This paper addresses the problem of optimal combination of forecasting to reduce the bullwhip effect in the four-level supply chain. For this purpose, a four-level supply chain is considered. One of the methods such as moving average, exponential smoothing, linear regression and multilayer perceptron artificial neural network can be considered for predicting in each level. First, the desired supply chain is simulated for this means. The different combinations of aforementioned forecasting methods are calculated. Then a combination of forecasting methods according to minimized bullwhip effects is selected. Finally, the results are analyzed by variance analysis model. Two combinations have the lowest bullwhip effects. Moving average, neural networks, exponential smoothing and linear regression for levels: retailer, wholesaler, manufacturer and supplier respectively as an answer and the other is: moving averages, exponential smoothing, neural network and linear regression in the same mentioned levels and other combinations have less utility.

  Introduction: with increase in greenhouse gases, and pollutants and ever-increasing attention to environmental issues, the managers and researchers tried to design and put into operation some networks which in addition to economic optimization has a specific focus on environmental factors and reducing pollutants. , Supply Chain Management has become changed into one of the basic issues of the economic firms in such a way that it has left an impression on all activities of the organizations for producing the products, improving the quality, decreasing the prices and presenting the required services for the customers. The first goal is to increase the profit of the entire supply chain and the second goal is reducing the pollutions of the environment. Materials and methods: This study in terms of purpose is practical and in terms of the method is descriptive-research. In this study, a dual-objective mathematical model is presented for the closed-loop supply chain network design. The mathematical model based on some standards such as the number of products, number of reused products and number of defined parts. Also, one solution was presented based on fuzzy-planning and a dual-objective fuzzy model was considered. In the next step with the available data, the model is tested by using GAMS software. Results and discussion: increasing the amount of the first purpose function has a complete direct relationship with increasing the multiplier. Whereas changing the demand has an indirect relationship with the second purpose function. increasing demand leads to an intensive increase in environmental pollutions. Manuscript profile

  Climate change and environmental impacts of economic activities, have forced supply chains to implement green policies and reduce environmental impacts and destruction to achieve competiete advantage. One approach to achive simultaneously to the economic and envitonmental objectives is to design closed loop supply chain networks (CLSCN) that integrate reverse logistics into their forward paths. In this paper, a bi-objective mixed integer linear programming model was developed for the CLSCN problem. The first objective is to minimize the cost function and the second objective function tries to minimize the time of transferring products from manufacturers to the distributors. Lp Metric and ε -constraint methods were utilized to solve the model. A numerical example was presented to show the applicability of the model and also sensitivity analysis was done. In this model two parameters of cost and demand are uncertain, in order to deal with uncertain parameters a robust optimization approach was utilizec. Multi objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) was used to solve the model in lare scales ad the solutions were compared with the solutions that obtained by exact methods. the findings of this research can help decision makers and executives to design efficient closed loop supply chains.

  Contemporary supply chains are complex networks of processes that are subject to many disruptions; a resilient supply chain will be able to respond more quickly to changes by creating capabilities. The effect of supply chain network components on each other under conditions of uncertainty contributes to complexity and disruption. The supply chain must be pushed towards a resiliency strategy in order to reduce disruptions and deal with issues that arise from the supply chain. The purpose of this paper is to analyze network processes from supplier to distributor, in proportion to the convergence of processes by a combination of resilience factors in the automotive industry. The design of the proposed scenarios with the combination of effective resilience factors is presented, which is based on the opinion of industry experts and also takes the vulnerable factors and disorders of each level into account. First, the sources of supply chain risks such as disruptions, delays and vulnerabilities are identified and then twenty-four scenarios are designed with a combination of resilience factors of flexibility, visibility, velocity, and visibility. The company''s complex supply chain is simulated based on the system''s past rate and statistical distribution functions, and then the network DEA is used to select the superior scenario. The indicators of each scenario or simulation output are selected based on the DEA, ranking the most efficient scenario. Finally, the relationships between them have been explored using mathematical analysis and the creation of a regression model between the simulation indices and the output of scenarios.

  Much has been written about various approaches which pay attention to supply chain from specific angles. One of the new approaches is an integration of Lean, Agile, Resilient, and Green (LARG) that benefiting from the advantages of different approaches and avoiding their disadvantages. This study aims to present a model for analyzing LARG supply chain using Axiomatic Design (AD) and Sustainable Balanced Scorecard (SBSC) in a Hesitant Fuzzy (HF) environment in automaker industry. The study process consisted of two stages: designing stage and evaluating stage. In the first stage, the Functional Requirements (FR) and chain Design Parameters (DP) identified in the LARG supply chain based on the Delphi technique and literature review. In the second stage an integration of information axiom, the Best-Worst Method (BWM), SBSC and hesitant fuzzy logic was used to analyze supply chain in Iran automaker industry. The results showed all 21 indicators are met in both independence and information axioms. Among LARG supply chain criteria, customer requirements, and timely delivery of the car to the customer is the most important and the use of multi-purpose labor and up-to-date machinery is the least important. Among sustainable balanced scorecard perspectives, growth and learning perspectives are the most important and internal processes perspective is the least important. The model with integrating LARG supply chain using AD and SBSC in a hesitant fuzzy environment has caused the designed model to have many capabilities compared to the existing models.

  One of the new approaches that can be used to increase the effectiveness & efficiency of the supply chain is the Shared Value Innovation in the supply chain. The difference between value innovation and shared value innovation is their level of activity. Although some research has emphasized the importance of value innovation in different parts of the organization & to some extent introduces Shared Value Innovation, so far no research has been conducted to provide a framework or model for managing Value Innovation in inter-organizational levels. The main purpose of the present study was to fill this research gap. In this mixture study, semi-structured interviews with petrochemical managers & academic experts were conducted & analyzed using constructive Grounded theory. Samples were selected by purposive sampling, based on the principles of Grounded theory approach. The reliability of the results is confirmed by calculating two evaluation indices. After analyzing the data using MaxQDA software, a framework for managing Shared Value Innovation in the supply chain has been proposed. The proposed theory shows how to achieve Shared Value Innovation through increasing adoption, improving communication, improving collaboration, enhancing trust, enhancing the commitment, enhancing interdependence while maintaining the independence, & simultaneously reducing costs. After designing the theory, its dimensions were evaluated and confirmed by combining the foundation data theory approach with the Delphi method. Manuscript profile

  Organizations and companies in order to increase their capabilities in the business environment must increase the level of outsourcing of their activities, and this increases the dependence on suppliers., they must pay attention to the performance of their suppliers, and also the evaluation and selection of efficient suppliers creates a competitive advantage for companies. Recent studies have suggested many methods for evaluating and selecting suppliers. Data envelopment analysis due to the basis of mathematical programming and linear algebra is one of the powerful methods in this regard that measures the efficiency of homogeneous units with multiple inputs and outputs. On the other hand, due to the uncertainty of the data in real applications, this issue has become a complex decision-making. Gray number theory is a method used to deal with uncertainty conditions that has been used in this research. In the present study, two models for evaluating and selecting efficient suppliers and a method for ranking efficient units based on data envelopment analysis and gray data are presented. The first model is proposed in order to achieve real results by applying the priority of inputs and outputs by decision makers and the second model is proposed by reducing the volume of calculations and solving them in the issue of evaluation and selection of efficient suppliers. The two mentioned models have been used to evaluate the car glass suppliers of IranKhodro Company and the implementation of the model shows acceptable results from the implementation of the proposed models.

  One of the most important problems for distribution companies (especially large online stores) is the design of docking stations, vehicle routing, and supply chain optimization. In this research, the distribution centers of Digi kala online store have been located. A multi-objective location-routing problem has been developed by meta-heuristic methods considering the principle of stability and time constraints. Based on the results of the proposed model, the effect of demand on the three objectives of time, cost, and environmental and social issues was investigated and it was shown that if demand increases, there will be a greater effect on time. In other words, increasing demand can create gaps that result in increased delivery time, and therefore this can lead to customer dissatisfaction in the long run. Increasing employment also leads to better environmental issues, but has no effect on cost or time. Also, the cost of transporting goods has no effect on environmental issues and time, but leads to increased costs. Manuscript profile

  Supply chain sustainability is necessary for businesses today, so organizations pay attention to social and environmental goals in addition to economic goals. Therefore, to ensure the realization of these goals, measuring the sustainability efficiency of the supply chain is considered inevitable. The problem of assessing the performance of supply chain sustainability, on the one hand, is affected by the inherent conflicts of interest among sustainability goals, which increase the complexity of the problem, and on the other hand, it should be configured in a way that can simultaneously provide sufficient knowledge of the efficiency of overall supply chain sustainability and sustainability goals. In this study, a combined mathematical model of data envelopment analysis and game theory is presented to evaluate the sustainability efficiency of the supply chain and the efficiency of sustainability goals by considering the trade-offs among sustainability goals. The trade-offs among sustainability goals are formulated using the Nash bargaining game in such a way that the ability to provide simultaneous results is related to the overall efficiency of supply chain sustainability and the efficiency of each sustainability goal. The proposed model was evaluated under a case study for appraising the efficiency of supply chain sustainability of an Iranian pharmaceutical company. The results of the model implementation indicate that the proposed model is firstly capable of simultaneously providing efficiency values of supply chain sustainability and each sustainability goal, and secondly, it provides the necessary and sufficient knowledge in comparison of these values for efficient and inefficient products.

  In recent years, the growing industrial and economic competition, environmental concerns, and governmental pressures on manufacturers regarding waste management have underscored the significance of designing a reverse supply chain and closed-loop network. Simultaneously, the potential for profit arising from product recycling has further emphasized the importance of these systems. This research focuses on developing a four-stage closed-loop network model for the supply chain, taking into account the uncertainty of product recycling rates. The primary objective of this study is to provide an integer linear programming model aimed at minimizing supply chain costs and customer service time under uncertain conditions. The supply chain model is designed by integrating queuing theory and product recycling system optimization. A critical aspect of this research involves modeling the uncertainty in the return rate of consumer products in the closed-loop supply chain, with the aim of developing a robust approach to address this issue. Additionally, the performance of the proposed model in the paper industry is evaluated, and a sensitivity analysis is conducted with respect to the decision variables using two metaheuristic algorithms: the Multiple Objective Harmony Search and the Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm.

  Given the complex conditions of businesses today and the occurrence of events such as the COVID-19 epidemic, organizations are thinking about higher operational speed and agility in the context of digital transformations. With the changes brought about by the fourth industrial revolution and digital transformations, organizations and supply chains should move towards using the components of the fourth industrial revolution. In this regard, the main objective of this study is to assess and select pharmaceutical suppliers in hospitals in line with the paradigms of viable supply chains. Considering the paradigms of viable supply chains (Lean-Agility, Resilience, Sustainability, and Digitalization), 21 criteria have been selected for evaluating suppliers. The criteria and sub-criteria have been weighted using the hybrid FDEMATEL-FBWM method, wherein the paradigms of Lean-Agility, Resilience, Digitalization, and Sustainability are of respective importance. Among the sub-criteria for evaluating suppliers, speed, distance, supply capacity, information sharing, financial capability, and crisis management have been chosen as the most important. According to the weights obtained from the mentioned hybrid method, suppliers have been prioritized using the VIKOR method. The findings of this study have been compared with the combined FAHP-TOPSIS method for validation due to the novelty of the solution method. Manuscript profile

  Uncertainty in the supply chain is considered as a fundamental and important issue in order to make appropriate decisions for supply chain managers and designers. In this article, in order to deal with this issue, a three-level supply chain under random demand is proposed using two decentralized and coordinated models, in which the profit increase of each actor in the chain (supplier-manufacturer-retailer) considered. In the decentralized model under the scenario-based stochastic demand, the retailer and the manufacturer separately decide on the order quantity and investment by considering the scenario-based stochastic CSR-sensitive demand. A wholesale price contract with two adjustable levels is proposed to persuade three levels to enter into a coordination scheme. According to the comparisons made between the results of the algorithms, it was found that the coordinated model performed better than the other algorithm in reducing chain costs and increasing profits. In particular, it can be acknowledged that the coordinated model performed better than the decentralized model by about 144.39% and was able to increase the profit of the chain. Manuscript profile

  This research examines coordinated decisions in a decentralized supply chain, consisting of one supplier and one retailer, which face random demand of a single product with a short life cycle. This paper considers a setting where the retailer has accurate demand information while the supplier does not. Such a problem with asymmetric demand information can be viewed as an extension of the newsboy problem in which both the supplier and the retailer possess the same demand information. Combining the mechanism of quantity discount and return policy will enable us to develop one coordinated model in contrast with the basic and uncoordinated model. Then, optimal order quantities of retailer and profits of the supply chain are calculated and compared in each model. Analytical and numerical results show that performance of the coordinated model is better than the basic and uncoordinated model. This article also shows that coordinated mechanism increases profits of the retailer, supplier, and total supply chain. Manuscript profile

  This article considers pricing and ordering decisions in the two-echelon supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and two rival retailers under stochastic demand. A Stackelberg structure is considered between two echelons of the supply chain that manufacturer acts as a leader, and retailers act as followers making decisions about pricing and ordering. Also, in the echelon of retailers, optimal pricing policy and profits of chain members are calculated and, in the special case that retailers are faced with similar market demand, Stackelberg structure is compared with Cornot structure. This research shows that among two competitive scenarios, Cornot structure causes that retailers set lower sale price as compared with Stackelberg structure and consequently retailers earn less profit in Cornot structure. Also in both competitive structures, manufacturer’s profit is higher than double of total retailers’ profit.                 Manuscript profile

  In today's world due to the advantages of the supply chain for organizations, the majority of organizations have joined the supply chain. On the other hand, Performance Assessment is an essential element for the development of modern organizations. Because of joining the organizations to supply chain, organizations performance linked together along the supply chain and the measure of an organization's performance rate alone doesn’t indicate the performance of the supply chain. For this reason, in this study, we tried to review the previous literature and present a Comprehensive conceptual model of supply chain performance indicators in the balanced scorecard model. Then, BY using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process, the measured weights Model of Balanced Scorecard in the food industry were calculated. After getting feedback from some professionals in the supply chain and doing the calculation, it has been found that the customer perspective is most important and internal process, financial and learning and growth perspective in the supply chain performance importance, respectively. The quality of the food supply chain performance metrics is also the most important indicator and efficiency, competitiveness and reliability indicators are important, respectively.   Manuscript profile

  Data envelopment analysis is the tool for computation in decision-making units such as supply chain. Since the model of two-stage data envelopment analysis has more focused on supply chain processes in two levels; the evaluation in higher levels has been essential to obtain more accurate efficiency. This paper extends Wang & Chin (2010) model into three levels for evaluation the supply chain to show the importance of integration in the overall supply chain. The model is considered the extended two-stage DEA model of Koa and Hwang(2008) to variable returns to scale (VRS) assumption and the additive efficiency decomposition model of Chen (2009) generalized to take into account the relative importance weights of two individual stages. The presented model is executed in numerical illustration and the results are analyzed in tables. Manuscript profile

  Literature indicated that to select a supplier in a supply chain, it is better quantitative and qualitative criteria considered simultaneously in supplier assessing. To get this goal we should use the technique that regards an appropriate set of quantitative and qualitative criteria. The goal of this article is developing and applying as assessing model to select a supplier with regarding quantitative and qualitative criteria. So we used analytical hierarchal process and grey relational analysis. The research method was development and field study. Supplier data and weights of criteria were gained using document and manager's comments. To assess suppliers, first quantitative and qualitative criteria were determined and analytical hierarchy process was used to weight these criteria. Then to rate suppliers grey relational analysis was used. Results indicated that using the integrated model we can consider quantitative and qualitative criteria simultaneously in assessing suppliers. Also flexibility and easy to use are advantages of the model. To experiment reliability of integrated model, suppliers were assessing many times with different coefficient of determination. Regarding different coefficient of determination between 0.1 and 1, results were similar. Hence using provided an integrated model for supplier selection is a reliable method.               Manuscript profile

  Nowadays, companies review trade samples and process of supply chain inevitably by using improving new techniques because of rapid environmental changes, customer and competitors’ expectations. Management of supply chain tries to apply lean, agile, resilience, green and sustainable in supply chain management in space of management of supply chain by use of the quintuple approach in order to benefit advantages of each of them and cover their deficiencies simultaneously. So, designing of the model of the supply chain by use of the quintuple paradigm approach is sufficient in preparing goods and services. The goal of this research is designing the compositional model of the supply chain by the quintuple paradigm approach in a company of rubber manufacturing of Shiraz - Dena. Method of partial least squares (PLS), FAHP and VIKOR is used for analyzing data. Results of this study showed that the quintuple paradigms have an effective role in the success of the performance of supply chain. So, the assertion of improving the LARG method to LARGS method is very valid. Also, results of this general model show that dimensions of performance have a determining role in getting a competitive advantage. So, findings of this study show that use of the compositional model of the quintuple paradigm of LARGS can have a positive effect on factors of performance for getting a competitive advantage. This developed model can be a model and approach for the so-called company and other similar companies and even it is effective for any other industries too.  Manuscript profile

  The present study aimed to develop and compare a simulated model of multi-product and multi-level inventory systems. The model is developed for the final product, different medium products, and the main product. The main purpose of optimization is to minimize costs function. The servicing level of units is measured through backfilling rate that should be more than a minimum level. In the proposed algorithm, the local optimization was found through the genetic algorithm. Since point estimation of goal function and backfilling rates are done on the simulation in the present study based, the statistical methods were used for investing possibility of solutions. Finally, one example was presented in the three-level network. Because linear localization is an especial form of second-order localization, the difference between goal function and estimated volume was at the minimum level. Undoubtedly, it is expected that the estimated point of this algorithm is better than the estimated point of linear localization.   Manuscript profile

  Health area in any country is one of the most important areas and supply chain in this area is of a strategic importance; because of directly the impact of supply chain costs into pharmaceutics costs. On the other hand, the area should be able to respond the society’s pharmaceutical needs with the greatest speed and efficiency and hence pharmaceutical supply chain tracking is quite necessary. So, the criteria such as logistics and manufacturing management, financial ability, technology and knowledge management, marketing ability and organizational competitiveness are attended. In addition, since there are many unpredictable factors in above criteria, there must be a complicate decision-making method that takes into account all criteria and factors along with transactions between them. In this research, after reviewing the pharmaceutical supply chain and with attention to the importance of drug tracking the best tracking system among the three well-known systems (traditional system, barcode, RFID) was selected. To do this, an innovative method was developed by the combination of two well-known decision-making methods, Choquet Integral and ANP. Meanwhile, PROMETHEE method was used to illustrate the outranking graph of the outcomes.   Manuscript profile

  Abstract In recent decades, competition to provide superior value to customers has shifted from competition between companies to competition between supply chains. Appropriate design of the supply chain with regard to the economic, social and environmental dimensions at the strategic, tactical and operational levels guarantees the survival and sustainable development of enterprises active in each part of the supply chain. One of the important issues in the supply chain is the existence of fraud and the risks associated with it throughout the chain. Also, according to the amount of scientific and experimental research conducted in recent years, the problem of detecting and evaluating fraud using computational methods alone It is an important topic for research. The most important challenges of fraud detection and evaluation are the unavailability of real data sets, the existence of asymmetric data sets, the large size of data sets, the dynamic behavior of fraudsters and the dispersion of fraudulent events, which are the result of these two Uncertainty and ambiguity in decision making. Therefore, the aim of this research is to provide a model to detect and evaluate fraud in the supply chain process based on the ANN-Big data integrated approach. In terms of its purpose, this research is a developmental and applied research. First, due to the creation of a comprehensive model, taking into account the various sources of decision-making regarding the legitimacy or fraud of electronic card transactions, and the requirements of big data analysis, it tries to develop theoretical knowledge in this field, this research can be considered Considering the nature of a mathematical analytical research, on the basis of this research, in terms of approach, it is a quantitative research. The inter-industry standard process of data mining or CRISP DM (Chapman et al. 2000) has been used as the analysis methodology. Clustering models and K-means algorithms, Kohonen neural network, anomaly detection based on clustering, hidden Markov model, parallel processing method of reduction mapping and fuzzy Dempster cipher fusion model are used. The analysis was done using MATLAB and R software. The proposed model has been able to show superior performance compared to other models in terms of output and execution time. Manuscript profile

  This study aims at understanding the antecedents of supply chain operational risk faced by firms and the conditions under which such risks can be mitigated. Using structural equation modeling, we investigate the relationships between environmental uncertainty and supply chain risk and the moderating effect of supply chain flexibility. We identify appropriate types of flexibility to mitigate the three major aspects of supply chain risk: supply risk, manufacturing process risk and delivery risk. Our empirical investigation reveals that uncertainty in the supply chain leads to don’t be high supply chain risk; and in uncertain environments, supply and manufacturing flexibility dont help in reducing the supply and manufacturing process risks respectively. However, our results also indicate that, in emerging markets such as iran where logistic infrastructure is less developed, internal capabilities alone may not be sufficient in reducing supply understanding of the types of flexibility that can mitigate supply chain risk in different business environments.chain delivery risk. Our findings not only contribute towards filling certain gaps in the supply chain risk management literature, but also provide practicing managers and researchers a better . Manuscript profile

  Green supply chain management activities can improve company reputation and customer satisfaction and Environment initiatives and resource efficiency, thereby improving the company's economic performance. Among the factors that influence the adoption of green supply chain management, external stimuli have more power than inter-organization. The improvement of the quality of goods and services, cost savings and increased efficiency in the manufacturing industry are known as powerful stimuli. In this research, firstly, by reviewing the theoretical issues, the main factors of the green supply chain drivers have been identified in one of the manufacturing industries and then, using the method of interpretive structural modeling, the relationships between the factors have been analyzed. The results of this study indicate that the identified factors can be classified into five levels based on the interpretive structural model, and the factor of international and state laws and regulations for the organization's commitment to the implementation of green supply chain management has been identified as the most influential factor. Having it can cause many other factors. Also, in terms of the degree of penetration and dependence, factors that are more important and at lower levels, most of them are located in an independent region with high penetration and low degree of dependency.

  Recently, the supply chain of perishable goods, have been considered due to their impact on human life. On the other hand, in the packaging industry, considering paper as a primary and perishable material due to the nature of water absorption, severe rotting in front of sunlight, flammability and turning to ash and finally affecting the final quality of the product produced from this issue. It is not excluded, it has attracted more attention. The high level of speed of changes and ambiguity in decisions has made it impossible to predict the future conditions of supply chains. Therefore, the design and use of a mathematical model for the design of the closed-loop supply chain network, taking into account the optimal pricing of products, the return rate and demand, along with taking into account the wastage of materials in the system, is strongly needed. At first, the supply chain of the paper-cardboard industry was designed and modeled with mixed integer programming, then due to the high volume of calculations and data of the problem, we can't receive exact solution approaches, the innovative approach of searching for harmony was used for the solution. . The problem is a single-objective model that minimizes system costs by considering environmental considerations. The present research shows that the price increase has a positive effect on the product return rate and reducing the level of product corruption. Finally, to validate the model, the numerical solution of a closed loop network has been done in this industry. Manuscript profile

  Supply chain optimization involves the integration of supply chain activities and related information flows by improving the state of chain relationships to achieve a secure and sustainable competitive advantage. In this realization, the issue of supply chain optimization has been chosen because to provide goods and services in the economy, we need a mechanism and system to maximize economic efficiency and productivity and provide return goods and services at lower and easier costs and the circular economy to be realized, the main discussion of which is related to the recycling of returned goods and goods that need to be repaired so that they can be reused. This research also emphasizes the use of healthy parts and components in the reproduction of products and this issue is considered for all goods in each part of the supply chain that cannot be used and must be transferred to the reproduction. The results of the implementation of the model presented in the genetic algorithm show that this algorithm was able to reach an almost optimal answer at the right time. This algorithm requires more computational time than LINGO optimization software to solve problems that have very small dimensions but this algorithm needs much less time to solve problems due to the increase in problem dimensions than LINGO optimization software. Therefor in these examples we observed that this algorithm can reach an acceptable answer in a much shorter interval than LINGO optimization software for large scale problems. Manuscript profile

  In this research, production planning and the amount controlling of inventory have been as effective factors in the process of reverse supply chain in flow returned products from customers to producers. Also, as  the  amount of recoverable as well as  recycling returned products factors are in uncertainty and probability condition; therefore, a model which is enable to meet customers ‘needs in terms of  least delay time, high flexibility and low cost of supply chain is necessary. The results of multi objective mathematic model is to meet and optimize different objectives as increasing profitability, decreasing cost, decreasing the environment pollution, scrap and processing time. Considering that the reverse supply chain problem is categorized in NP-Hard problems which are not easily solvable by Gradient methods thus other methods like Genetic Algorithm for optimizing production planning and inventory control in reverse supply chain was used.

  Nowadays, global speedy transformations have forced organizations to investigate risk management in supply chain in order to overcome their insecure conditions. Suppliers should produce materials and parts with of high quality and low costs. Identifying and ranking of the effective risks in supply chain is necessary in order to achieve this goal. In this paper, in addition to providing an explanation of non-determinant concepts in supply chain, and the identification of risks supply chain and determining the intensity of their effects, risk management in supply chain has been explained as one of the main functions of managers. In addition, we have recognized the most important supply chain risks on the basis of suggested model and also have designed the questionnaire which has not only measured the severity of risks relating to each other. Finally, the results were analyzed using DEMATEL technique in order to clarify the most important supply chain risks regarding their priorities; e.g. environmental, financial, strategic, informative and communicative technology.  Manuscript profile

  Nowadays, supplying sources from outside a company has become an important business approach. A lot of models have been developed to solve the supplier selection problem. Among them, multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) has been used by lots of authors and researchers with acceptable results. A review of literature on supplier selection shows that although supplier selection is a multi-objective problem, the nature of this multi objective problem has remained unknown. In many cases, except cost, other important parameters like quality, lead time and risk are not considered. Also practically, the effect of the nature of uncertain and imprecise facts on decision making like objectives, constraints and parameters can't be disregarded. To take account of these uncertainties, this research uses fuzzy method. Discount and costs due to inventory keeping in the goal function have been considered simultaneously. We also have considered objectives like decreasing the defected parts, and late delivery. Manuscript profile

  Establishment of strategic alliances and formation of integrated supply chains is an obligation nowadays. This is mainly forced by the necessity of specialization of businesses as the result of market requirements and tendency of customers to customized products and services. Under present circumstances, a supplier selection approach which is compatible with the long-term objectives and strategies of the enterprise increases corporate efficiency and effectiveness; this leads to a more productive enterprise. This research focuses on the strategic selection of suppliers considering the interrelation of decision data. Here, an integrated structure is built in order to appropriate determination of enterprise strategies as well as their transformation into applicable criteria for supplier selection. This structure employs a combination of an adjusted factor analysis approach with multi-attribute decision making techniques within data envelopment analysis framework to evaluate decision alternatives; the alternatives which are not appropriate to be evaluated with traditional approaches of data envelopment analysis due to small number of them. Finally, the presented methodology is implemented in a corporation within Iranian foodstuff industry and its results are validated using a nonparametric statistical test in comparison with an extended model of data envelopment analysis.

  Disruptions in companies may come from customers, suppliers and other supply chain factors that cause damage such as higher costs, poor performance, lost sales, lower profits, bankruptcy, etc. in the supply chain. In order to prevent these damage and improve performance, creating a supply chain resilience has become an important activity for companies and managers in the supply chain. In order to achieve this goal, identifying and improving the factors affecting supply chain resilience for managers is essential. In this research, the effect of supply chain dynamic capabilities on supply chain performance through supply chain resilience mediation and the direct effects of supply chain dynamics capabilities on supply chain resilience and performance by structural equation have been investigated. According to the results, the positive impact of integration and flexibility capabilities on supply chain performance was confirmed by the mediation of the resilience, and the impact of external capabilities on supply chain performance is rejected through mediation of resilience. In addition, the results confirm the positive effects of supply chain resilience and Flexibility capability on supply chain performance, and the integration and flexibility capabilities on resilience; and accordingly, the positive effects of external capabilities on the resilience, integration and external capabilities of the supply chain performance was rejected.

  Supply chain management (SCM) is a subject that has found so much attention among different commercial and industrial organizations due to competing environment of products. Therefore, integration of constituent element of this chain is a great deal. One of the important subjects of supply chain is production-distribution planning. Integrated production and distribution of products has key role to increase of the costs in supply chain. In this paper, a bi-objective integrated production-distribution problem in a three echelon supply chain includes factories, distribution centers and final costumers for multi-products at multi-time period are presented. Two conflicting objectives by minimizing total costs of chain and costs of the distribution warehouses are considered. The Lp-metric method with P=1 and P=∞ is used to solve the model. Finally by considering two metrics of solution quality as integrated objective functions, and CPU, time method have been implemented on several problems and the performance of proposed methodologies is analyzed as statistic.

  Today, due to the ever-increasing competition between organizations and uncertain environments that have been created by many changes in customer needs, using an efficient supply chain can be considered as a competitive advantage for any organization. In this regard, one solution is lean approach. Lean approach helps to eliminate waste in the supply chain. On the other hand, based on the state of Iran and the abundance of oil and gas resources, the implementation of lean approach in the supply chain of the organizations operating in this field is very important.In order to conduct this study, that has been carried out in one of the largest companies operating in the offshore sector and the objective is to achieve an supply chain. First, by reviewing the literature, eight key factors that lead to the lean of the supply chain were identified and using the tool of the questionnaire and distributing between statistical sample and statistical analysis were effective. Then, using an interpretive structural modeling approach, the research model was developed. In the next step, the model was validated in quantitative and statistical analyzes as well as qualitative and based on it, the factors: financing, leadership and management, and communication with the supplier were identified as the most influential and minimizing the delivery time and flexibility were identified as the most impressive factor. Finally, some suggestions were made to achieve lean procurement process in the offshore sector of the oil and gas industry. Manuscript profile

  Developing a robust platform architecture can give companies a competitive edge and enhance product future generations and customer satisfaction. However, in order to develop a product platform architecture, there is a need for some kind a product variety design that concurrently manages costs and the supply chain process, and focuses on ease of use and improved availability to components. In this research, the design for variety (DFV) approach and two indices, generational variety index (GVI) and coupling index (CI) are used to measure a product architecture. Using the quality function deployment (QFD) and design structure matrix (DSM), design indices for product diversity are identified and ranked. Additionally, the design for variety approach is modeled simultaneously with the concepts of design for cost (DFC), design for availability (DFAv), and design for supply chain (DFSC) to yield a practical mathematical model for the development of the product platform architecture, which aims for product diversity, improved availability, reduced costs, and supply chain management. The case study of the current research is a phased array radar, which is optimized using the latest techniques (genetic algorithm) and MATLAB software to solve the problem. After implementing the model, considering four objectives including total cost, availability, supplier evaluation score (competency) and replaceability (variety), and seven main parameters of the model, sensitivity analysis and other comparisons and results are presented, which analyzes the relationships between objectives, the impressment and affectability of objectives and model parameters on each other. Regarding the comparison of objectives, the results generally show the inverse relationship between the total cost objective and the other objectives, and the direct relationship between the other objectives with each other. Additionally, the results of the sensitivity analysis performed indicate that the availability objective had the highest effect and replaceability (variety) and the evaluation score of suppliers (competency) and total cost also took next place.

  During the crisis, relief supply chain management (also known as humanitarian supply chain management) has received great attention these days. The core questions facing many humanitarian organizations are: where are their strengths/weaknesses? Are they positioned to be effective in their supply chain system? What challenges do you need to overcome? What do they need to do to take advantage of the technological opportunities offered nowadays? These questions have been addressed them extensively during the past two decades. This paper tries to review and classify some of the papers carried out in key areas of the humanitarian supply chain such as location, certainty and uncertainty, relief teams and injured (patient) classification, machine learning, queue theory, the employed research methods, solution methods, and the type of objective functions. The paper begins first to define what the “humanitarian” ecosystem may include, and which actors play important roles. After, certain critical views of the humanitarian relief supply chain are examined. The critical views of the humanitarian relief supply chain would help researchers to introduce further research orientations and areas to overcome crises in the real world. Manuscript profile

  An important issue in the supply chain concerns minimizing response time for the delivery of goods to the final destination, which can be achieved through selecting the correct route.  The optimal path connecting the origin and destination nodes through the least intermediate nodes is called the shortest path. The shortest path in supply chain networks considered in this paper concerns the problem of sending an order from an original node to a destination node on a network which lacks a perfect and permanent fixed structure. The queuing theory measures were employed in the present enquiry to find out the shortest path. Initially, the supply chain and queuing network were concisely introduced and then, the two-input and three-stage supply chain of Balan Sanaat Company was displayed. Each input order to the supply chain is represented by two stochastic variables including the occurrence time and the number of commodities to be delivered. Further, the measures of the performance and productivity measures were extracted via the queuing network approach to serve the purpose of the study which was to compute the minimum response time for the delivery of items to the final destination along the three-stage network. The average number of items that can be delivered during this minimum response time constitutes the optimum capacity of the queuing network. At each stage of the queuing network, decisions regarding the most appropriate delivery route to the next node in the shortest possible time is made right at the preceding delivery node.

  Resource management is one of the most important practices in sustainability. Resource management, due to the scarcity of resources, requires attention and scientific-based organizing. Manufacturing industries are among the largest centers of resource consumption, especially natural resources. Therefore, different industries need to be committed to the principles of sustainable development in meeting their needs. Hence, the purpose of this study is to provide a model of resource management in sustainable supply chain in the selected industries. To do so, first, resource management indicators in the sustainable supply chain have been identified based on the previous studies and the experts’ opinions, and then, a model of indicators have provided in order to show their importance in the different industry by applying three methods of K-average, principal component analysis and random forests. In order to gather data, a survey-based questionnaire is used. The results demonstrate that environmental management and cross-functional cooperation indicators in the automotive industry are the most important indicators. In ceramic tile industry, social issues and human resource management indicators are important but, in the steel industry, social issues and environmental management indicators were important.

  This applied descriptive and correlational survey sought to examine the factors affecting the brand equity in big steel companies. The research sample comprised 384 experts in iron and steel industries who were randomly selected based on the Morgan Table from the population of all experts in the field. The research data were collected via 384 questionnaires and were analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling. The findings revealed that internal marketing and social responsibility of the company had positive impacts on customer engagement, that internal marketing had a positive effect on the productivity of iron and steel companies and that productivity and supply chain management had an impact on the price. Also, supply chain management and customer engagement were found to have a positive impact on the products of iron and steel companies. The impacts of price and product on brand performance, and thereby, on brand equity were also verified. However, the effect of customer engagement on brand performance and brand equity, that of corporate social responsibility on brand performance, and that of prices on the brand equity of iron and steel companies were not confirmed.

  Abstract This paper studies the pricing issue in a multi-period and multi-product closed-loop supply chain with price-dependent demands. The aim is to assign a location for the collection and disassemble center, vehicle routing, and material ordering in order to maximize the profit.  In the study, a non-linear mathematical model is presented for small scale problems. Due to the NP-hardness of the problem, two met heuristics, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization algorithm, are applied to solve medium and large scale problems. The algorithms are validated by comparing their results with those of the mathematical model. Finally, the performance comparison of the two met heuristics through statistical analysis is demonstrated that the particle swarm optimization algorithm performance outperforms the genetic algorithm.

  Espidan ironstone industries is one of the most consumed power industries in the electricity supply chain of Isfahan province as the second industrial hub of the country and one of the main suppliers of raw materials in the supply chain of the country's steel industry. Planning in a large-scale electricity supply chain, in a space full of uncertainty, is begin with electricity demand forecasting.In this paper, a hybrid long-term demand forecasting method in the electricity supply chain of Isfahan's ironstone industries using a combined data mining method including wavelet transform,deep learning and intensive learning machine is proposed. The used data in this study is according to the recorded information from the electrical energy demand signal of Espidan ironstone industries in a period of 40 months in the form of 24-hours. The data in a part of the study period due to the lack of production of this industry in some hours are interrupted. So that only 40% of the data had a value and the remaining, 60% were zero. This subject led to information deficiencies and increases the forecasting error up to 40% in the first step of the proposed algorithm. By completing the first step of the proposed model with intense learning machine (ELM) the forecasting error is reduced and it was possible to create an improved forecasting model for supervised training. Finally, simulation results are compared with other available approaches such as support vector machine and decision tree. The results show the improvement and reduction of error and a significant increase in the accuracy of the proposed method in long-term demand forecasting in the electricity supply chain of Espidan ironstone industries.

  The contemporary application of analytical approaches, including clustering, classification, and ranking, in customer analysis empowers supply chain members to effectively align their organizational and commercial objectives. This study introduces a clustering model designed to scrutinize customers within a metal supply chain, defining optimal strategies tailored to each cluster. These strategies contribute to the implementation of a comprehensive customer relationship system, fostering competitiveness in the market. To achieve this goal, the initial step involves the review, cleaning, and normalization of the company’s customer data. These data comprise scores in eleven criteria aspects for each customer, encompassing aspects such as good account status, absence of bounced checks, timely payment, legal status, presence of personal or governmental support, reputation, brand value, internal business managers' comments, each customer's share of total purchases, and production capacity. Expert-derived weights are assigned to these criteria. Subsequently, the k-means clustering technique is employed and validated through the silhouette score. Post clustering, the Fuzzy TOPSIS method is utilized to rank the clusters, determining their respective positions. Finally, strategies and approaches for each cluster are formulated, considering factors such as monetary credit allocation, discount rates, and trust levels in product sales. Overall, this research pioneers a comprehensive framework that goes beyond traditional models, offering a strategic roadmap for supply chain members to navigate a competitive market, standardize communication, and foster long-term relationships with customers.

  سازمان های پروژه محور در صنایع بالادستی سهم زیادی از منابع ملی را در اختیار دارند و نقش مهمی در توسعه یک کشور ایفا می کنند. ارزیابی عملکرد سازمان های پروژه محور می تواند به مدیران کمک کند تا از ورودی ها به طور موثر استفاده کنند و راه خود را برای دستیابی به اهداف هموار کنند. برای ارزیابی عملکرد سازمان های پروژه محور، شاخص های کمی و کیفی زیادی وجود دارد. محاسبه کارایی از طریق تحلیل پوششی داده ها (DEA) یک شاخص رایج برای ارزیابی عملکرد در چنین شرکت هایی است. در مدل سنتی DEA داده‌های واضح مورد نیاز است در حالی که در دنیای واقعی، بیشتر داده‌ها نادقیق و نامطمئن هستند. یکی از دلایل اصلی عدم قطعیت مربوط به اطلاعات غیر کمی، ناقص و دست نیافتنی است که باعث ادغام منطق فازی و مجموعه های فازی در مدل های مختلف مانند DEA می شود.ایدۀ اصلی پژوهش حاضر ترکیب رویکردهای کمی و کیفی در ارزیابی عملکرد برای بهره‌گیری از هر دو و دستیابی به نتایج دقیق‌تر است. از این رو، در این مقاله، یک مدل ترکیبی مبتنی بر تحلیل پوششی داده های فازی (FDEA) و مدل تعالی پروژه (PEM) برای ارزیابی عملکرد در سازمان های پروژه محور پیشنهاد شده است. ابتدا ارزیابی عملکرد توسط مدل PEM داده های فازی انجام می شود. سپس پیاده سازی فازی DEA در مدل PEM انجام می شود که در آن ورودی ها و خروجی های مدل FDEA معیارهای مدل PEM هستند. مدل هیبریدی پیشنهادی برای ارزیابی 30 شرکت پتروشیمی در ایران استفاده شده است. مقایسه نتایج هر دو مدل نشان‌دهنده ضریب همبستگی تقریباً 90/0 در سطح معنی‌داری 01/0 است که نشان‌دهنده همبستگی مناسب بین دو مدل است.

  Choosing the right suppliers is the basis of a successful supply chain and a key factor for improving competitiveness. Therefore, the purpose of the present study is to investigate the quality and failure rate of the parts that provided by the suppliers. In doing so,  the evaluation approach based on the failure rate was used and the reliability of the suppliers was determined and their ranking was done. As a result, the research method used is applied in nature and its method is contextual-case. Moreover, for the purpose of a case study, the suppliers of seven separate supply chains of an electrical appliance manufacturing company in Shiraz were examined that each of the chains included eight suppliers. Besides, in order to evaluate and establish the supplier's reliability model based on the failure rate, a parallel system was used. Finally, by calculating the reliability, the failure rate of the supplier's manufactured product was obtained. The results showed that this failure rate is a suitable criterion for comparing the output quality or the products of suppliers. Thus, it is possible to rate the suppliers based on this obtained model. Manuscript profile

  The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of total quality management in the impact of supply chain management on organizational effectiveness in employees of Setareh Yazd Wire and Cable Company. This research was one of a series of correlation studies that were conducted with the modeling approach of structural equations of partial least squares. Due to the small statistical population, the counting method was used for research samples and all 90 employees of the company were selected as a statistical sample. The research measurement tools were the Sustainable Supply Chain Management Questionnaire by Lane et al. (2014), Spinval Integrated Quality Management Questionnaire (2015), and Organizational Effectiveness Questionnaire based on Parsons quadruple function model. Structural equation modeling with partial least squares approach was used to analyze the data. The results showed that supply chain management can directly affect the effectiveness and overall quality management of employees. The results of Sobel test (9/18) also confirmed the mediating role of total quality management. The result of the VAF test meant that the TQM variable could explain 0.42 of the effects of supply chain management on organizational effectiveness. According to this result, the managers of Setareh Yazd Wire and Cable Company are suggested to influence the overall quality management by creating strategies in supply chain management so that they can finally increase the organizational effectiveness of their employees.       Manuscript profile

  Effective supply chain management has become an approach to ensure competitive advantage and improve organizational performance; Because there is no more competition between organizations, but competition between their supply chains. In the current research, the resilient management of the supply chain and its effect on the sustainable performance of the supply chain have been investigated. In terms of the purpose, the current research is one of the applied studies that was conducted with a qualitative method and with an exploratory purpose, and finally, the results were obtained using the Grounded Theory Approach. In this research, a systematic literature review method was used to identify resilient supply chain measures and sustainable performance criteria based on the subject literature were extracted. Also, a model that shows the relationships of resilient supply chain management and how it affects sustainable performance is presented. The results indicate that sensitivity to the market and its changes leads to moving towards resilience to deal with vulnerability. Of course, factors such as process control, quality improvement, as well as the existence of a suitable purchasing and procurement system, management of relationships with suppliers, the existence of a suitable transportation system and the existence of technology and information technology are considered to be other effective factors that human resources measure in the implementation of these Factors play an important role. By achieving resilience through these measures, social, environmental and economic sustainability is achieved, which leads to a competitive advantage. Manuscript profile

  For this purpose, in this study, modeling is designed to design a dynamic cement supply chain network to reduce post-crisis shortage. The facilities used in the model of this study are of the two types of temporary and permanent ones that are used to meet the severe demand created after the crisis. Time parameter One of the most important parameters is due to the cavitation of cement products and also the need to meet demand at specified time. In this research, this parameter is modeled in normal and post crisis situations. Disaster victims have a different preference for meeting demand. In addition to modeling this issue, alternative or similar items are also considered. Sustainable planning has been used to make sound decisions because of the demand-side sensitivity. Genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, and simulation refrigeration have been used to solve larger-scale models of the algorithm. According to the results, the algorithm is of better quality than the algorithms for different dimensions. Due to the importance of demand forecasting during the planning period in this study, the adaptive fuzzy neural network method is used for forecasting demand which FCM is the best known pattern recognition and adaptability algorithm.

  Each steel company buys the raw materials it needs from the manufacturers in question, thus forming supply chains with network properties. Therefore, there is a need to conduct performance research to improve the performance of these chains. In studies, the study of specific structures in the supply chain has received less attention. In this research, we have tried to examine the network and how to evaluate its performance in the presence of uncontrollable, undesirable factors. For this purpose, network DEA models are proposed that evaluate the performance of the chain in the presence of uncontrollable inputs and outputs, undesirable output even in its internal structure. Then, 11 present steel companies, the corresponding chain of each of which has two stages, were evaluated by the presented models in 1398. The designed model was based on the network Data Envelopment Analysis of tailored the companies under study and their efficiency was calculated. Based on the results, one company under the first stage and one company under the second stage were recognized as efficient, and all companies had a total efficiency of less than one.

  The Social Security Organization is the main focus of insurance in the private sector and is the largest insurer and is one of the major economic institutions responsible for providing support to other economic, social and household institutions. Therefore, in order to provide optimal service in the social security organization, it is necessary to design and implement a system of performance evaluation of the appropriate supply chain. For this purpose, in this study, NDEA was used to evaluate the efficiency and performance of the service supply chain in the social security organization. Because conventional DEA models operate on historical information, their greatest weakness is to determine the efficiency of decision-making units in the past and do not provide a framework for the future, so to solve this problem in this study and to predict future inputs and outputs from the method Simulation of system dynamics is used. In order to show the theoretical findings of the new model presented in a practical way, the performance prediction and performance evaluation of 15 Hormozgan provincial social supply chain branches in three years from 95 to 97 have been discussed.Finally, the efficient and inefficient branches were identified.

  Today, the debate on the recovery and reuse of consumer products has become particularly important. Since the closed loop supply chain is not only a stream of forward but also a reverse flow, therefore, companies are succeeding to create a direct and reverse supply chain of integrity. In the present study, after reviewing the subject literature, a more completed and comprehensive model is presented than the previous models. The model is multi-objective, multi-level, and single-product with product return in the uncertain conditions. The objective functions of the model include minimizing costs, increasing the profit from the quality of the recycled product, increasing the cost savings from recycling and environmental impacts. In order to solve the multi-objective problem approach (TH) is used, which is one of the methods for converting multi-objective functions to single-objective. To validate the proposed model, a numerical example of the design was solved and for analyzed using the GAMS software. And the results of the sensitivity analysis are described below.

  The purpose of this research was to design a five-level supply chain network by simultaneously taking into account the financial and operational dimensions as a systematic perspective. The innovativeness of the present research was in that it presented an integrated financial-operational approach in the resilience supply chain. This initiation was mathematically modelled by considering five levels of suppliers, factories, distributors, retailers, and customers in strategic and technical decision-making phases. Given the importance of equity versus accounting profit, the modeling aimed at maximizing the shareholders’ wealth. The suggested model was designed and tested by GAMS24 and CPLEX solver. The results of modeling and solving the numerical model indicated the importance of the role of financial dimension and simultaneous consideration of financial-operational dimensions in the mathematical model in obtaining sustainable competitive advantage. Moreover, the ability of the five-level supply chain was explained by the suitability of several criteria such as cost, capital structure, further increase of equity versus profit. In order to analyze the supply chain resilience, Iran Khodro Company, as the studied case, was tested and validated using the designed model. The results showed that applying the present research model can improve the supply chain resilience of Iran Khodro Company. Manuscript profile

  This study has conducted to assess the role of customer pressure on the company's stock price response to the announcement of participation in green supply chain programs. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and is a survey in terms of how it is performed. The data used in the present study is the available financial information of companies that were listed on the stock exchange during the years 1390 to 1398 and have not been removed from it. The research data were analyzed using control charts and estimation of logistic and linear regression models. The results showed that, as a measure of customer pressure, the type of industry affects the participation of companies in green supply chain management. There will be a reduction in the stock prices of companies by announcing the participation of them in management of the green supply chain. The results also show that in indirect industries where the pressure from customers is more on announcing the company's participation, announcing the company's participation in green supply chain activities will have a lower reducing effect on its stock price Manuscript profile

     Knowledge management in different organizations has been adapted by effective use of resources and achieving competitive advantage. In this regard, organizations must consider a model for solving their current problems that can be the most effective in the organization's outputs with the least conflict. Therefore, in this study, the basics and variables of knowledge management were used to evaluate the supply chain performance of an oil products company. For this purpose, 5 main indicators of knowledge management including: creation, storage, sharing, exploitation and evaluation of knowledge were used, which these 5 indicators in the form of 26 variables were considered as model input. In the proposed model, first 26 knowledge management variables are refined by fuzzy cognitive mapping methods and the importance of each of them is determined, then using the concepts of systems dynamics, their effect on supply chain variables is measured in the form of cause and effect diagrams. Finally, according to the flow diagram and presentation of scenarios, we see that by using the proposed model, the production rate will increase by 30%. Manuscript profile

  In advanced organizations, the decisions and strategies of managers throughout the supply chain require the use ofIn advanced organizations, the decisions and strategies of managers throughout the supply chain require the use of knowledge management. Production of high quality product to meet market demand and delivery in quantity and on time to customers is one of the most important goals of production units. Therefore, the issue of service and delivery of goods to customers is of special importance, according to which the company's strategy in interaction with customers is determined. Therefore, the management of this strategy requires forward-looking decisions and the design of new capacities with a comprehensive and interconnected approach and cannot be achieved through a static approach. Also, knowledge management in different organizations has been adapted by effective use of resources and improving customer service and achieving competitive advantage. In this study, we seek to provide a dynamic model to evaluate the impact of knowledge management on improving customer service in the framework of system thinking. This study has been studied in a petrochemical company over a period of 20 years. In this field, first the main variables are identified and their relationships are formulated in the form of causal loops, then completed by designing the main model in the form of flow accumulation diagram and simulated in Vensim software, which finally presents the proposed strategy at the end of the period. Finally, the amount of customer service increases by 15%, which leads to more demand coverage by 12% in the whole system. Manuscript profile

  This research proposed a comprehensive model designed for the optimization of supply chain networks, particularly emphasizing leagile demand-driven systems within the context of omnichannel operations. The proposed model integrates various parameters such as total cost, lead time, service level, and residual capacity, addressing the complex interdependencies among an omnichannel environment of retailers. To enhance the model's reliability, a hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm is employed, combining the strengths of MOEA/D-DE (Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm with Differential Evolution), IBEA (Indicator-Based Evolutionary Algorithm), and NSGA-II (Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II). The collaborative optimization approach ensures adaptability and efficiency in addressing diverse and intricate optimization challenges inherent in omnichannel networks. The numerical data from a case study on the supply of sanitary masks in Tabriz, Iran, during August 2021 is utilized to validate the model within the specific omnichannel context. The study includes a thorough sensitivity analysis, demonstrating the model's robustness against disturbances in the omnichannel network. The consistent performance of the odel across various disruption scenarios underscores its reliability and efficacy in ensuring the stability of supply chain operations within omni-channel frameworks. This observed resilience significantly enhances the overall robustness of the supply chain, especially when confronted with disruptive events. The model's ability to maintain stability under diverse conditions contributes to fortifying the supply chain against potential disruptions, thereby augmenting its adaptive capabilities in dynamic environments..Managerial and practical implications are discussed, emphasizing the significance of the proposed reliable omnichannel approach in leagile demand-driven systems.

  Today, one of the main challenges facing organizations is to find methods for the production cycle that are in accordance with environmental standards. Therefore, using the green supply chain is considered as a suitable method. Paying attention to this philosophy in organizations has caused the workforce to be able to think, create and innovate better, and on the other hand, investment has become more targeted and productivity has increased. This research has been done with the aim of providing a model for evaluating green supply chain management and using the system dynamics method. For this purpose, the effective parameters in green supply chain management were identified and the relationship between them and their effect on each other were determined. Then the cause and effect diagram and green supply chain management flow diagram were designed and after validating the model, its simulation was done using Vensim software and in the time horizon ( 1395 - 1405 ). According to the validation of the model, green supply chain management policies were identified and the results were compared and analyzed. Manuscript profile

  The aim of this study was to design a sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) model of educational systems for the establishment of a sustainable university based on the sustainable development paradigm through the exploratory mixed exploration model research method. Its statistical population in the qualitative section, a group of professors of environmental engineering, public administration and educational management of free universities and senior managers of environmental departments and in the quantitative section of logistics experts, senior, middle and operational managers and faculty members of engineering Industries, government management and education in the free universities of Mazandaran province in 14 university units with an approximate number of 660 people. In the qualitative part of the snowball sampling method, 20 people and in the quantitative part with the relative stratified random sampling method based on Cochran's formula, 243 people were selected as a statistical sample. Data in the qualitative part were extracted through the implementation of Delphi technique with a semi-structured questionnaire and in the quantitative part through the implementation of researcher-made 80-item questionnaires on a statistical sample and analyzed using SPSS and Smart PLS software. Took. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed in terms of content and structure. Reliability and combined reliability were estimated and confirmed by Cronbach's alpha coefficient with 85%. Findings showed that sustainable supply chain management includes eleven dimensions. A sustainable university including seven dimensions has a significant impact. Manuscript profile

  This study aims to identification and determine the relationships between the challenges of using the technology of 4.0 industry in the circular supply chain of sustainable agriculture in order to manage and reduce waste and residues of agricultural products from production to consumption. For this purpose, the most important challenges have been identified through the review of theoretical literature and after screening by the fuzzy Delphi method, they have been analyzed with the interpretive-structural modeling method. The statistical population, 15 experts including senior managers of food and agricultural industrial companies, were selected by targeted non-probability sampling with the snowball technique and answered the questionnaire of paired comparisons. 17 challenges were identified and confirmed in three economic, environmental and social categories, according to the findings of structural-interpretive modeling, the challenges of "job threats of employees and non-adaptation of employees with smart technologies" (social), "financing In digital infrastructure" (economic), and "emission and disposal of harmful electronic waste and consumption of resources and energy of smart technologies" (environmental) are the most influencing. And the challenges of "lack of government financial support for the use of smart technologies" (economic) and "unavailability of global standards and protocols of smart technologies to protect the environment" (environmental), "Uncertain financial returns of investment in fourth generation industry technologies"(environmental), and "High investment in fourth generation industry technologies for sustainable agricultural operations" (environmental) are the most influenced and The most important are that to in order to reduce these challenges, financial, legal and legal support from the government is needed.
