Enhancing healthcare supply chain resilience: decision-making in a fuzzy environment

Obaid Ur Rehman et al.

Summary: This research study prioritizes resilience strategies for healthcare supply chains by using multi-criteria decision-making techniques. The study assigns importance weights to severity, probability of occurrence, and recovery time through fuzzy analytical hierarchy process, and then uses these weights for prioritization of risks. The identified risks are used to highlight appropriate resilience strategies through the fuzzy quality function deployment technique. The results indicate that Industry 4.0, multiple sourcing, risk awareness, agility, and global diversification of suppliers, markets, and operations are the most significant resilience strategies.

Hybrid Fuzzy and Data-Driven Robust Optimization for Resilience and Sustainable Health Care Supply Chain with Vendor-Managed Inventory Approach

Reza Lotfi et al.

Summary: One of the best strategies for managing and reducing inventory costs in COVID-19 conditions is Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI) policy. This study proposes a hybrid fuzzy and data-driven robust optimization approach for Resilience and Sustainable Health Care Supply Chain (RSHCSC) with VMI to improve inventory management and tackle uncertainty and disruption. Three RSHCSC models are suggested using different optimization techniques, and sensitivity analysis is conducted on key parameters.

Implementation of the circular supply chain management in the pharmaceutical industry

Feroz Khan et al.

Summary: The concept of circular economy (CE) has been incorporated into supply chains globally due to increasing pollution and waste creation. The integration of CE and supply chain management is called circular supply chain management (CSCM). The pharmaceutical industry, like other industries, is also contributing to the damage to the ecosystem. Therefore, this study aims to develop a model to support the adoption of CSCM in the pharmaceutical industry. The study identifies ten barriers and twelve enablers through a new hybrid methodology. Lack of financial resources and funding, market challenges, and lack of coordination and collaboration within the supply chain network are the top barriers, while industrial symbiosis, Reverse Logistic (RL) infrastructure, and blockchain technology are the top-ranked enablers. The provision of a framework for CSCM adoption in the pharmaceutical industry and the new hybrid methodology are the novelties of this study.
