    Long-Term Supplier Selection Problem: A Case Study
    (Sciencepark Sci, Organization & Counseling Ltd, 2017) Senyigit, Ercan; Soylemez, Ismet; Atici, Ugur
    The problem to select a supplier has taken the best supplier according to all combinations of sorting criteria. With regard to the supplier selection problem, the priority ranking of the criteria taken into consideration to solve this problem has a direct impact on the determination of the "optimum" supplier. This paper provides a case study made for the supplier selection problem involving all possible rankings in cable transfer pulleys used in rolling products by a company X which is active in a steel cable industry in Kayseri, Turkey. NG's model is used in the solution stage in the application. In this research, a new type of supplier selection problem called long-term supplier selection problem with a case study is proposed. Finally, solution of long-term supplier selection problem by a new approach is presented. According to the values obtained by scoring, it has been determined that a long-term agreement can be concluded with the supplier no. 4 (S4) and a long or medium-term agreement can be made with supplier no. 2 (S2). S1, S3 and S5 are determined as the suppliers with the worst performances. As a result, it has been shown to the company that working with S1, S3 and S5 suppliers will not generate any benefits.

    Green Supplier Selection by Using Fuzzy TOPSIS Method
    (World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd wspc@wspc.com.sg, 2016-08) Dogan, Ahmet; Söylemez, İsmet; Özcan, Uǧur; Stylemez, Ismet
    With the increased environmental consciousness in customers, organizations took upon the task of redesigning their strategic goals in a more environment-sensitive way in order to fulfill their social obligations, to enable sustainability, to gain competitive advantage and to make the world more habitable. Because, the emerging conditions in the 21st century indicate that the traditional criteria -such as price, cost so on for supply chain management, supplier selection and performance measurement of suppliers are no more sufficient and there is the necessity of adding new criteria such as environmental matters. This paper deals with the problem of selecting green suppliers in an organization in Turkey that has operations in the field of accumulator. The aim is to select the greenest of 3 suppliers in Turkey, France and Bulgaria which supply the organization with the plastic material used in the production of accumulator. The problem is solved via fuzzy TOPSIS, which is a multi-criteria decision making method (MCDM), and the results are used to select the greenest supplier. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Barriers in Sustainable Lean Supply Chain Management: Implementation in SMEs
    (Ege Univ, Fac. Economics & Admin. Sciences, 2025-02-04) Kazancoglu, Yigit; Takcı, Ebru; Ada, Erhan
    As the world undergoes significant transformations in various domains, including technology, energy supply and communication, the idea of sustainability has become a significant issue. This study investigates the barriers to Sustainable Lean Supply Chain (SLSC) management within Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) and explores the structural interrelationships among these barriers. A comprehensive literature review was carried out to recognize critical elements relevant to the research topic, resulting in the identification of fifteen specific elements that account for 85% of the barriers in SLSC management. The DEMATEL method was used to evaluate the significance and influence levels of these factors. Furthermore, structured in-depth interviews were conducted with ten experts representing sectors that constitute 85% of the SMEs operating in Kayseri Organized Industrial Zone (OIZ), Turkey, including metal products, furniture, plastic packaging, construction materials, textiles and food. The findings reveal that strategies represent the most significant barrier to SLSC management in SMEs. The barriers were analyzed in two dimensions: influencing and influenced factors. The primary influencing factor identified was laws, standards, regulations, and legislation while the most significant influenced factor was found supply and suppliers. The study concludes with findings and actionable recommendations for practitioners and decision-makers.

    A Joint Production and Transportation Planning Problem With Heterogeneous Vehicles
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014-02) Toptal, A.; Koc, U.; Sabuncuoglu, I.
    We consider a manufacturer's planning problem to schedule order production and transportation to respective destinations. The manufacturer in this setting can use two vehicle types for outbound shipments. The first type is available in unlimited numbers. The availability of the second type, which is less expensive, changes over time. Motivated by some industry practices, we present formulations for three different solution approaches: the myopic solution, the hierarchical solution and the coordinated solution. These approaches vary in how the underlying production and transportation subproblems are solved, that is, sequentially versus jointly or heuristically versus optimally. We provide intractability proofs or polynomial-time exact solution procedures for the sub-problems and their special cases. We also compare the three solution approaches over a numerical study to quantify the savings from integration and explicit consideration of transportation availabilities. Our analytical and numerical results set a foundation and a need for a heuristic to solve the integrated problem. We thus propose a tabu search heuristic, which quickly generates near-optimal solutions.

    Gigification, Job Engagement and Satisfaction: The Moderating Role of AI Enabled System Automation in Operations Management
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Braganza, Ashley; Chen, Weifeng; Canhoto, Ana; Sap, Serap
    Innovative and highly efficient Artificial Intelligence System Automation (AI-SA) is reshaping jobs and the nature of work throughout supply chain and operations management. It can have one of three effects on existing jobs: no effect, eliminate whole jobs, or eliminate those parts of a job that are automated. This paper focuses on the jobs that remain after the effects of AI-SA, albeit with alterations. We use the term Gigification to describe these jobs, as we posit that the jobs that remain share characteristics of gig work. Our study examines the relationship between Gigification, job engagement and job satisfaction. We develop a theoretical framework to examine the impact of system automation on job satisfaction and job engagement, which we test via 232 survey responses. Our findings show that, while Gigification increases job satisfaction and engagement, AI-SA weakens the positive impact of Gigification on these important worker outcomes. We posit that, over time, the effects of AI-SA on workers is that full-time, permanent jobs will give way to gigified jobs. For future research, we suggest further theory development and testing of the Gigification of operations and supply chain work.
