B2B supply chain performance enhancement road map using data mining techniques

The 9th International …, 2010

Presently, modern B2B supply chain management (B2B-SCM) equipped with semi-automated data logging systems accumulate large volumes. However, each SC unit in B2B-SC still individually develops their performance. Besides, their linkages of performance attributes between SC units still lack vital information extraction to improve theirs. Therefore, this paper aims to propose an integrated framework between B2B supply chain (B2B-SC) performance evaluation systems and data mining techniques, developing relationship rules of collaborative performance attribute enhancement. The methodology is as follows. Firstly, B2B-SC performance evaluation questionnaires based on two levels able to characterize collaborative relation between two or more partners in their SC were gathered from the case study companies. The data set of relationships between enterprise and its direct customers of the case study companies in France was used for demonstration. Secondly, data cleaning and preparations for rule extraction were performed on the questionnaire database. The significance of attribute was calculated using attribute ranking algorithms by means of information gain based on ranker search. These results were used to choose the crucial attributes from each micro view. Thirdly, web graph analysis was performed on this data to confirm the strong attribute relationship. Next, association rule was deployed to extract performance attribute relationship rules grounded on support and confidence cross validation method. The quality of each recognized rule is tested and, from numerous rules, only those that are statistically very strong and contain vital information are selected. Last but not least, these rules are interpreted by domain experts and studied by domain engineers to build a collaborative performance attribute enhancement road map. Furthermore, the final rule set of extracted rules contains very interesting information relating to SCs and also point out the critical existing SC attribute improvement. Ultimately, companies in this SC are able to use this framework to design and adjust their units to conform with the exact customer needs.

Supply chain performance measurement and improvement system

Journal of Modelling in Management, 2018

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to adopt a supply chain performance measurement (SCPM) framework as proposed by Dweiri and Khan (2012) to model a novel supply chain performance measurement indexing (SCPMI) system to measure and improve supply chain performance. Design/methodology/approach: The adopted SCPM framework developed by Dweiri and Khan (2012) is used to model a generic SCPMI framework aided by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and inputs from industrial experts. To exemplify the applicability and efficiency of the generic SCPMI system, an automobile assembling company from an emerging economy was utilized. This SCMPI system is used to measure, improve and measure postimprovement supply chain performance (SCP) guided by DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) methodology. Findings: The study's initial measurement results showed an average SCP of the case company over a four month period as 82%. DMAIC methodology was utilized to identify inherent problems and proposed improvements. The post-improvement SCP measurement saw an improvement from an average of 82% to 83.82% over a four month period. Practical Implications: The proposed generic SCPMI framework aided by AHP-DMAIC has been successfully implemented in a case company. After implementation, managers and decision makers saw an improvement in their SCP. The proposed SCPMI system and results can be useful for benchmarking by manufacturing organizations for continuous SCP improvement. Originality: An original SCPMI framework proposed is general in nature and can be applied in any organization.

Embedding Attributes Towards the Supply Chain Performance Measurement

Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain, 2023

Dependency on the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) and the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model is inadequate in the context of sustainability, environment, and other multiple factors along with the changes in the market dynamics. As a result, performance evaluation through a holistic approach in the manufacturing industry is not comprehensive. Therefore, a Supply Chain Performance Measurement (SCPM) is required to assess the supply chain's effectiveness. This research formulates Integrated Supply Chain Performance Measurement (ISCPM) model through the supply chain performance attributes in the outlook of input-process-output considering the BSC and the SCOR model at three decisions levels with an application of quantitative techniques to bring synergic effect to all stakeholder issues. A gap analysis was performed through systematic literature reviews. The integrated supply chain performance measurement model incorporates ten supply chain performance measurement attributes supplier relationship management (SRM), internal supply chain management (ISCM), and customer relationship management (CRM). The model was then tested from the various sectors in the manufacturing industry of Bangladesh, through a simple random sampling. The ISCPM model furnishes stakeholders of the manufacturing supply chain with the appropriate strategies to review and appraise their performance toward fulfillment of the ultimate goals. This model is suggested to be implemented in manufacturing industries to improve their operational performance. The study contributes to academia developing the ISCPM model with ten performance measurement attributes that enrich the literature on SCPM. It also contributes to the industry for practitioners by bringing synergy into the framework and performance measurement attributes which eventually upgrade the prosperity of the manufacturing industry and eventually the society.

Presentation a New Algorithm for Performance Measurement of Supply Chain by Using FMADM Approach

2008

Supply chain management has become such a popular topic in modern business management and researches. It brings the revolutionary philosophy and approach to manage the business with the sustained competitiveness. However, the existing performance measurement theory fails to provide its necessary support in strategy development, decision making and performance improvement. The main goal of this paper is presentation of a new approach to supply chain performance measurement by use of FMADM (Fuzzy Multi Attribute Decision Making) method. For this goal, we extract the performance metrics based-on balanced scorecard (BSC) model. Afterward we present a three-step approach to measure the performance of the supply chain by FMADM method. In the process of supply chain performance measurement, many of our data are qualitative. Since the qualitative data are ambiguous we transform the qualitative terms into quantities terms by using the fuzzy collections. This includes identifying and prioritization the key factors in increasing competitiveness. The main framework of this method is outlined with some suggestions and a simple example Key word: Performance measurement • BSC model food supply chain • FMADM • fuzzy approach

Performance Measurement of Supply Chain Management: A Decision Framework for Evaluating and Selecting Supplier Performance in a Supply Chain

Supply Chain Management (SCM) has gained significance as one of the 21 st century manufacturing paradigms for improving organizational competitiveness. Supply chain ensures improved efficiency and effectiveness of not only product transfer, but also information sharing between the complex hierarchies of all the tiers. The literature on SCM that deals with strategies and technologies for effectively managing a supply chain is quite vast. In recent years, organizational performance measurement (PM) and metrics have received much attention from researchers and practitioners. Performance measurement and metrics have an important role to play in setting objectives, evaluating performance, and determining future courses of actions. Apart from the common criteria such as cost and quality, ten other performance measurements are defined, visibility, trust, innovativeness, delivery reliability, flexibility and responsiveness, resource utilization, cost, assets, technological capability, service and time to market, so total twelve criteria and fifty eight subcriteria are used to evaluate the performance in supply chain. So, for evaluating and selecting supplier a multi-attribute decision-making technique, an analytic hierarchy process (AHP), is used to make decision based on the priority of performance measures. This paper describes a decision framework for evaluating and selecting supplier performance in a supply chain. A case study from the automotive industry is used to demonstrate the AHP technique.
