TLDR
In this paper, the concepts of CSC are expounded and the interorganization problems that effect CSC coordination are identified, and best practices focusing on CSCM are proposed.Abstract:
Supply chain coordination has become a critical success factor and effectively improved the performance of organizations in various industries. The construction industry in general is characterized with high fragmentation, low productivity, cost and time overruns, and conflicts. The application of supply chain management in construction industry may provide a new solution for resolving these problems from systems perspective. Coordination is the core issue to improve construction performance in construction supply chain (CSC). In this paper, the concepts of CSC are expounded. Furthermore, the inter-organization problems that effect CSC coordination are identified. Innovations and best practices focusing on CSCM are proposed in this paper.read more

Optimal integration of the facility location problem into the multi-project multi-supplier multi-resource Construction Supply Chain network design under the vendor managed inventory strategy
TL;DR: Results show that there are different distributions for the different cost components in response to the different network sizes and that when the network is large enough, changing its size results in a very little change in the cost components, hence better controlling the cost variability is achieved.
