dc.descriptionSupply Chain Management (SCM) is defined as the systematic and strategic integration of the traditional business functions within a particular company and across businesses within the supply chain for the purposes of improving the long-term performance of the individual company. A review of the literature reveals that identifying risks and managing supply chain disruptions as important issue in SCM. Disruptions are caused by sudden demand changes, transportation disruptions and natural disasters and these can threat the stability of a chain member and increases the vulnerability of the whole supply chain. Since orders at the upstream part of the chain depend on the demand which are created in the downstream part of the chain inventory control and management becomes a crucial issue in managing supply chain disruptions. Another important issue highlighted by the literature is the impact of information sharing on supply chain performance. The objective of this research is thus to investigate the impact of transportation disruption on supply chain performance under different inventory management and information sharing strategies. This research proposes and generates two models based on combination of information sharing and inventory management on ―pull‖ based supply chain. Also, it employs an in-depth literature review, a case study and simulation as the methodology. Results from a preliminary case study conducted on a local automotive company served as valuable inputs to the simulation studies. Using a 4 tier traditional pull base automotive supply chain as the base case for the simulation, information sharing scenarios like that of the vendor managed supply chain is investigated for the impact of transportation disruption on supply chain performance. The performance measures used are the inventory levels and supply chain efficiency measures. The results demonstrate that the vendor managed supply chain performance is better than the traditional model, and also the vendor managed model is less sensitive to transportation disruption when compared to the traditional model. Simulation results also showed that the most sensitive member in the supply chain for the case of transportation disruption is the distributor. The approaches used in developing the conceptual and simulation models in this research can help organizations make better decisions on how to best manage disruptions in supply chains.,Master / Sarjana
