Abstract

This chapter introduces the impact of competitive strategy on strategic supply chain network design decisions. The aim of increasing competitive advantage forces firms to deal with multiple conflicting objectives. Since supply chains are affiliate networks including multiple parties, accomplishing a solitary objective corresponds to an inadequate effort to maintain the sustainability of supply chain. The overall integrity and sustainability of the supply chain can be provided by satisfying the expectations of each parties. The loyalty in the supply chain is achieved by offering distinguished service among suppliers and customers rather than delivering almost same services. This can only be achieved through network design models by taking into account multiple conflicting objectives. The firm's competitive strategy defines a particular set of objectives to achieve specific goals on these performance attributes. This chapter examines the main problem domains in SC design, strategic performance measures, and recent literature on single/multiple objective models.
