Abstract:
This paper proposes a model that will assist companies, particularly the small and medium-sized enterprises, assess their performance by prioritizing performance measures and selecting an adequate operations strategy under various market scenarios. The outlined model utilizes and integrates the Supply Chain Operations Reference framework and the Analytical Hierarchy Process approach to construct, link, and assess a four level hierarchal structure. The model also helps small and medium-sized enterprises put more emphasis on supply chain operations and management. The use and benefits of the proposed model are illustrated on a case of a family owned, medium-sized manufacturing company.
