“…También se ha demostrado que las CS bien gestionadas pueden proporcionar ventajas competitivas para las organizaciones, las regiones y los países. Se reconoce que para lograr ese objetivo se necesita ser productivo (Sun, Xu y Li, 2020;Elgazzar, Tipi y (Tyagi, Kumar y Kumar, 2017) y gestionar la CS por procesos (Tundys y Fernando, 2020;Miri-Lavassani, 2018).…”

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo desarrollar una herramienta metodológica para evaluar el desempeño de la cadena de suministro sostenible mediante un índice integral. La metodología consta de cinco pasos, enfocada en procesos, y utiliza métodos como análisis de ciclo de vida y jerarquías analíticas o de Saaty (con base en múltiples criterios). Los criterios considerados fueron productividad, servicio al cliente, valor agregado, ecoeficiencia y rentabilidad. La metodología y el índice integral fueron aplicados a una cadena de suministro de contadores de energía eléctrica. Se consideraron las dimensiones económica, ambiental y social. Como resultado esencial, se obtuvo un mejoramiento de la sostenibilidad de la cadena estudiada, lo que demostró la novedad y la factibilidad de aplicación de esta herramienta.

“…More recently, Badiezadeh et al (2018) improved the traditional network DEA model by proposing a double-frontier model to evaluate the optimistic and pessimistic efficiencies of the supply chain. To analyze the sustainable performance of China's regional power supply chain, Sun et al (2020) proposed a two-stage DEA model. Their model not only considers the leader-follower game relationship between the power generation system and the retail system, but also measures the technical gap present in the former.…”

“…The DDF technique was first proposed by Chambers et al (1996) and effectively solved the shortcomings of Shephard's DDF technique. While expanding the desirable output, the DDF method can reduce the input as well as the undesired output in the same proportion (Sun et al, 2019(Sun et al, , 2020. This advantage is why the DDF method is widely used by scholars.…”

“…MF represents the best production technology level of all RSCF systems, while GF only represents the best production technology level of RSCF systems in the gth group. Therefore, the MF-efficiency of RSCF o is not greater than its GF-efficiency:E o ≤ e o .According toSun et al (2019) andSun et al (2020), this study determines the technology heterogeneity of RSCF o under different frontiers by constructing a TGRI, shown as follows.…”

PurposeTo dilute the financial difficulties in agricultural production and operation, the Chinese government has actively explored and developed rural supply chain finance (RSCF) service systems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and analyze the performance of RSCF systems in China.Design/methodology/approachTo evaluate the performance of RSCF systems in China, this study proposes a two-stage data envelopment analysis model. Compared with other models, the model proposed in this study considers not only the technical gap between RSCF systems but also the maximization of intermediate output to conform to the practice of RSCF.FindingsBased on the empirical analysis, this study draws the following four conclusions. First, the overall efficiency of China's RSCF systems is low, and there remains great potential for improvement. Second, the technology gap ratio index score and meta-frontier efficiency of RSCF systems in Central China are the lowest in all regions, indicating that the technical level of RSCF systems in Central China is the lowest. Third, the relationship between rural residents' disposable income and the efficiency of RSCF systems is U-shaped, and the efficiency of RSCF systems in the high-income group is far greater than that of other income groups. Finally, the main reason for the lack of efficiency in RSCF seems to lie in management and technology.Originality/valueThis study divides all RSCF systems into four types according to management potential and technical potential, and recommend corresponding improvement suggestions for different kinds of RSCF systems.

PurposeTo improve the sustainable performance of the power supply chain system (PSCS), the Chinese government proposed a series of relevant policies and promoted the application of various technologies in the power industry. This study analyzes the sustainable performance and technology levels of PSCSs in various regions of China.Design/methodology/approachTo quantify the technological heterogeneity between PSCSs, this study incorporates a meta-frontier into the performance evaluation model. To increase the performance of inefficient PSCSs, this study also proposes a series of performance improvement path indexes.FindingsEmpirical analysis of China's provincial PSCSs, using data from 2014 to 2017, has yielded several key findings. First, the average performance of PSCSs of all provinces in China is 0.7192, indicating that PSCSs in China have great potential for improvement. Second, independent of power generation subsystem (PGS) or power retail subsystem (PRS), regional differences affect the technological heterogeneity of PSCSs in China. Third, for PGS, the technological level of PSCSs in the eastern region displays a high level, while the management level can still be greatly improved. Fourth, only the PSCS of Beijing is best in both PGS and PRS. The two subsystems of the PSCSs in the other provinces are either insufficiently managed or technologically inadequate.Originality/valueCompared with the traditional performance model, the model proposed in this study considers the technological heterogeneity between PSCSs. In addition, the path indexes proposed in this study clearly indicate an improvement direction and the specific improvement level for inefficient PSCSs.
