SUPPLIER EVALUATION IN CLOSED-LOOP SUPPLY CHAIN USING MCDM APPROACHES
Closed-loop supply chain includes traditional forward supply chain and the additional reverse supply chain.Due to increasing competition and environmental legislation, the closed-loop supply chain management has become an important topic for many companies all over the world.This paper presents a supplier evaluation method for sustainability in closed-loop supply chain.Considering sustainability, supplier selection and evaluation are the crucial decision point not only for QCD but also environmental impacts.It is the key step because vendors coherence and attitudes affect purchasing of raw materials which is the start point of primary activities such as manufacturing & assembly.As well as choosing the suppliers to work with is one of the key points, semi-annually or annually evaluation is very important to keep track of vendors performance level to be successful on sustainable development.There are, however, a lot of factors can affect companies ability to choose the right supplier.Also in evaluation layer of this process which is as important as selection step, has to have several criteria.Supplier selection decision and evaluation processes should be deal with in different aspects.In this step, firms have to define several criteria due to their firm culture, aim and mission.For each aspect, there may be multiple choices to quantify the suppliers capability with respect to project requirements.There are various approaches to determine performance level of suppliers in evaluation step.This study aims to create a model to help evaluating suppliers by using hybrid grey relational analysis for a firm in cable industry.To be developed model is compared with hybrid fuzzy logic and AHP model.Output of the system will be a semi-annually or annually credit report for all suppliers to identify the current status to keep track on sustainability of outsourcing success of Closed-loop supply chain network.
