“…The remaining methods are used once or twice. In addition, some studies also use multicriteria decision-making (Karadağ et al , 2021; Larimi and Yaghoubi, 2019), simulation (Dehghani et al , 2021; Ensafian et al , 2017; Larimi et al , 2019; Osorio et al , 2017; Shirazi et al , 2021; Zhou et al , 2021), time series technique (Dharmaraja et al , 2020) and data envelopment analysis (Haeri et al , 2020; Hosseini-Motlagh et al , 2020a, 2020c) approaches together with the methods mentioned above.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to systematically review the existing literature on the blood supply chain (BSC) from a network design perspective and highlight the research gaps in this area. Moreover, it also aims to pinpoint new research opportunities based on the recent innovative technologies for the BSC network design. Design/methodology/approach The study gives a comprehensive systematic review of the BSC network design studies until October 2021. This review was carried out in accordance with preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA). In the literature review, a total of 87 studies were analyzed under six main categories as model structure, application model, solution approach, problem type, the parties of the supply chain and innovative technologies. Findings The results of the study present the researchers’ tendencies and preferences when designing their BSC network models. Research limitations/implications The study presents a guide for researchers and practitioners on BSC from the point of view of network design and encourages adopting innovative technologies in their BSC network designs. Originality/value The study provides a comprehensive systematic review of related studies from the BSC network design perspective and explores research gaps in the collection and distribution processes. Furthermore, it addresses innovative research opportunities by using innovative technologies in the area of BSC network design.

“…Perishability and limited shelf life add complexity and cost to blood stock management (Pirabán et al, 2019). Mathematical demand forecast models have been empirically approved to address blood demand problems (Dharmaraja et al, 2020;Lestari et al, 2017). Thus, researchers claim that improving MPS actually enhances coordination, and therefore have a positive effect on firm performance sustainability.…”

Food supply chain disruptions have of recent increased in terms of severity and frequency leading to viability problems for most businesses in related supply chain networks and hunger among millions of human beings. In the extant supply chain literature elements of responsive supply chain such as velocity, versatility, and visibility have been suggested as some of the possible strategies to build supply chain resilience. It has therefore been suggested in this study that these elements’ influence on supply chain resilience is moderated by contract farming as a special form of supplier development. Farming contracts are either production or marketing contracts. Data was collected from a conveniently selected sample of 200 restaurants that use supplier development in the form of contract farming for acquiring critical resources for their operations. A structural equation modelling was used to analyse data related to the direct effects and multi group structural equation modelling was used to assess the moderating effects. The results revealed that there is a statistically significant relationship between the three selected elements of responsive supply chain management and supply chain resilience, and all the hypothesised relationships were moderated by type of farming contracts, with the relationships being stronger under marketing contracts for supply chain velocity, and under production contracts than under marketing contracts for relationships involving versatility and visibility. Therefore, the study recommended that production contracts be used in the fast-food restaurant industry in order to reduce supply chain vulnerabilities, and marketing contracts to build supply chain capabilities. This is the first study that has sought to assess the differential utility of different farming contracts through assessing their moderating effects as a build-up on previous research that has already established that supplier development in the form of contract farming leads to supplier development.

“…There are a large number of published studies on location-allocation [85,17,102,105,9,18,23,69,21,103,75,14,54]. However, very few published studies have focused on location-routing [87], allocation-inventory [7], allocation-routing [26], and inventory-routing [60]. S ¸ahin et al [85] studied on the redesign of BSCN for the Turkish Red Crescent.…”

“…They integrated tactical and operational decisions for the South Region of Portugal. Dharmaraja et al [26] proposed a mathematical model to trade-off between surplus and shortage of blood units at blood banks. Their model consists of a three-stage approach: Forecasting blood demands at the blood bank, determining the optimal allocation of units from blood banks with surplus to a blood bank with shortage, and selecting the optimal route to deliver the allocations.…”

“…Constraint (25) implies that a vehicle that will visit BDCs must visit at least one TC before. Constraints (26) and (27) state that vehicle v cannot exceed the amount of the predetermined maximum distance and transportation, distribution, and collection time for itself, respectively. Constraint (28) refers that only one vehicle goes from RBC to each LBC and any vehicle cannot be left RBC for the not opened LBC.…”

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In the paper, a novel mathematical model for blood supply chain network and a variant of Genetic Algorithm for the problem are proposed. The proposed mathematical model is developed using Mixed-integer nonlinear programming. The model is designed as a location, allocation, and routing problem that includes determining locations of local blood centers, assigning transfusion and blood donation centers to predetermined local blood centers, and routing between them. Eventually, a case study is conducted in the Eastern Black Sea Region of Turkish Red Crescent to illustrate the practicality and validity of the proposed model.</p>
