Summary

Introduction

Service supply chain refers to supply of services to any organization, may be manufacturing, service or public sector, and the delivery of these services to customers (Baltacioglu et al, 2007). The low material flow visibility level of service supply chain restricts the utilization of existing product based supply chain approaches directly (Saliha Karadayi,2014). It is a network of suppliers, service providers, consumers and other supporting units that perform the functions of transaction of resources required to produce the service. It is noticed that the notable contribution of service sector (more than 50%) to GDP is more and ahead of manufacturing sector of India (Majumdar et al, 2015) and it highlights the necessity of competently managed service
