Supply Chain Management in Using DEMATEL Method

Abstract

Supply Chain Management. Introduction: The management of the flow of goods and services that starts at the point of origin and concludes with consumption is known as supply chain management. Additionally, it includes the transportation and storage of basic supplies used in ongoing projects, inventory, and fully furnished commodities. Monitoring and tying together the manufacturing, transport, and shipment of goods and services is the primary goal of supply chain management. Companies that have excellent and tight control over internal inventory, production, distribution, internal productions, and sales can do this. The flow of commodities, services, and knowledge from the manufacturer to the consumer is depicted in the above diagram. The image shows the transfer of a good from a producer to a manufacturer. Research significance: improved client relationships and services are developed. improves the delivery of goods and services with the least amount of delay. increases productivity and operational efficiency. reduces the expense of storage and transportation. cuts down on both direct and indirect expenditures. aids in attaining the timely delivery of the appropriate goods to the appropriate location. improves inventory management, enabling just-in-time stock model execution to be carried out successfully. helps businesses adjust to the challenges posed by economic instability, rising consumer demands, and related variations. Methodology: the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (dematel) is regarded as an efficient technique for locating the causal links in a complex system. It focuses on assessing the interdependencies between elements and identifying the crucial ones using a visual structural model. Alternative: Alignment mechanisms, Cross functional process changes, Information systems, Performance measurement, People empowerment. Evaluation preference: Alignment mechanisms, Cross functional process changes, Information systems, Performance measurement, Alliance design, People empowerment. Results: from the result, it is seen that Alignment mechanisms got the first rank whereas the, People empowerment is having the lowest rank. Conclusion: as can be seen, Alignment mechanisms has the lowest rating while, People empowerment has the top rank.
