Design and Development of Supply Chain Agility Assessment Model by Fuzzy Logic

Abstract

Supply Chain Management is an essential constituent of Agile manufacturing (AM). Contemporary supply chains have acquired agile attributes such as volatile market demand, high product variety, high profit margin, short product life cycle etc. The quantification of supply chain agility gains extreme importance as it indicates the strategic agile position of an organization from supply chain perspective Fuzzy logic approach has been used to compute supply chain agility. The case study has been carried out in a manufacturing organization situated Tiruchirappalli. The output of the case study includes the computation of supply chain agility index and fuzzy performance important index of various supply chain agile attributes.
