An Integrated ISM-AHP Computing Framework for Evaluating Supply Chain Competitiveness

In this paper a comprehensive method for evaluating supply chain competitiveness has been presented. The method is an integrated approach of Interpretive structural modeling and analytic hierarchy process. Using ISM the enablers are prioritized and then four supply chains are compared using AHP. The most important enablers are identified using ISM and then the supply chains are compared using the priorities given by the experts. This paper presents not only a way to establish interrelationships among the enablers of SCC but also presents an integrated methodology to evaluate various supply chains using this method.
