Abstract

Supply chain performance evaluation is a research hotspot and lies in the core status in supply chain management. The study presents a new evaluation indicator system and evaluation algorithm for supply chain performance. First, the balanced score card is used to construct an evaluation indicator system for supply chain performance evaluation through analyzing the basic principle and connotation characteristics of supply chain management; Second analytic hierarchy process and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation algorithms are combined to satisfy the dynamic, subjective and transitional characteristics of evaluation indicators and improve evaluation accuracy. Thirdly the evaluation indicator system and evaluation algorithm are used in supply chain performance evaluation of fresh food products and the experimental results shows that the presented evaluation indicator system and evaluation algorithm has satisfied validity and feasibility.

Highlights

  • In the 1990’s, traditional purchase and logistics had already developed into a broadly-defined supply chain management system with strategic significance

  • Because modern supply chain management is different from traditional business administration and has unique personality and characteristics, designing and constructing new performance evaluation indicator systems and evaluation methods has become one of the key techniques and a research hotspot in supply chain management and in the fields related (Feng and Ma, 2013)

  • Fuzziness, dynamics and intermediate transitivity of evaluation indicator of supply chain performance, it cannot be described and verified accurately and rigidly (Luong and Phien, 2007; Disney et al, 2006); this study, through study on fuzzy membership functions of evaluation indicators, combines analytic hierarchy process with fuzzy hierarchy evaluation method to carry out comprehensive evaluation, so as to overcome the problems analytical hierarchy process and fuzzy evaluation method, respectively

Summary

INTRODUCTION

In the 1990’s, traditional purchase and logistics had already developed into a broadly-defined supply chain management system with strategic significance. Fuzziness, dynamics and intermediate transitivity of evaluation indicator of supply chain performance, it cannot be described and verified accurately and rigidly (Luong and Phien, 2007; Disney et al, 2006); this study, through study on fuzzy membership functions of evaluation indicators, combines analytic hierarchy process with fuzzy hierarchy evaluation method to carry out comprehensive evaluation, so as to overcome the problems analytical hierarchy process and fuzzy evaluation method, respectively The former method has low evaluation accuracy when evaluating multiindicator system (Duc et al, 2008) and fuzzy evaluation method should determine membership function rigidly which destroys the fuzzy subjective indicator characteristics (Chen et al, 2000a)
