“…Although details differ across studies, most of them share a common set of outcomes and managerial insights, such as joint optimization of SC capacities and recovery capabilities for new and existing SCs; trade-offs between investments in increased recovery capability and redundant capacity provision; decision-making support on safety stock management, reconfiguration of production and inventory plans after disruptions, and recovery scheduling ( Ivanov et al, 2015 ; Sinha et al, 2020 ; Goldbeck et al, 2020). As the most desirable outcome, process level analysis seeks to identify and test resilient SC designs to sustain disruptions, which range from optimistic and pessimistic scenarios ( Ivanov et al, 2014a ), probability-based disruptions ( Pariazar et al, 2017 ) to worst-case scenarios in robust optimization ( Zhao and Freeman, 2019 ; Özçelik et al, 2020 ). In some settings, the authors solve inverse problems and search for the elements in SC structures that should be strengthened to withstand disruption propagation ( Liberatore et al, 2012 ; Pavlov et al, 2013).…”

“…Amid the control and mitigation stage, SCs must adapt to a “new normal” and start preparing for recovery. For example, OR models can help to identify balanced levels of capacity utilization and production rates at different firms in the SC to achieve maximum possible performance ( Ivanov et al, 2016 ; Pariazar et al, 2017 ; Goldbeck et al 2020). It is now highly relevant to the COVID-19 pandemic since SCs are misbalanced, which makes it difficult to decide at which level of capacity firms should start and then scale during a subsequent recovery.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic unveils unforeseen and unprecedented fragilities in supply chains (SC). A primary stressor of SCs and their subsequent shocks derives from disruption propagation (i.e., the ripple effect) through related networks. In this paper, we conceptualize current state and future research directions on the ripple effect for pandemic context. We scrutinize the existing OR (Operational Research) studies published in international journals dealing with disruption propagation and structural dynamics in SCs. Our study pursues two major contributions in relation to two research questions. First, we collate state-of-the-art research on disruption propagation in SCs and identify a methodical taxonomy along with theories displaying their value and applications for coping with the impacts of pandemics on SCs. Second, we reveal and systemize managerial insights from theory used for operating (adapting) amid a pandemic and during times of recovery, along with becoming more resistant to future pandemics. Streamlining the literature allowed us to reveal several new research tensions and novel categorizations and classifications. The outcomes of our study show that methodical contributions and the resulting managerial insights can be categorized into three levels, i.e., network, process, and control. Our analysis reveals that adaptation capabilities play the most crucial role in managing the SCs under pandemic disruptions. Our findings depict how the existing OR methods can help coping with the ripple effect at five pandemic stages (i.e., Anticipation; Early Detection; Containment; Control and Mitigation; and Elimination) following the WHO classification. The outcomes and findings of our study can be used by industry and researchers alike to progress the decision-support systems guiding SCs amid the COVID-19 pandemic and toward recovery. Suggestions for future research directions are offered and discussed.

The commission sales form is a very significant channel of sales today, which is especially true in the field of dietary supplements. In parallel, the prevailing digitalization trends have opened up further new opportunities for this form of distribution. The multi-level optimization process presented in the publication makes it possible to optimize the distribution logistics processes of companies producing food supplements at a high level by exploiting these new possibilities. The operation of the procedure is also illustrated through a practical example.

“…The proposed model which integrates the quantity discount and coordination model for addressing supplier selection issue, has been solved by the particle swarm optimization algorithm and scatter search algorithm. The supplier selection problem in the forward distribution network addressed by Pariazar et al [27]. In the proposed model, supplier failures and inspection as supplier selection were considered with other supply chain network decision in the uncertain environment.…”

In this paper, a mathematical programming model is presented for integrated problem of closed loop supply chain network design and supplier selection. The suppliers propose discount policy based on purchase amount and loyalty of buyers which are both taken from the elements of Recency, Frequency and Monetary (RFM) technique. In contrast to the existing closed-loop supply chain network design models which select suppliers based on unit price and quantity discount, the proposed model considers loyalty discount policy along with unit price and quantity discount policy as elements of RFM technique in selecting suppliers. The main objective of this paper which is formulated by a mixedinteger programming model is to minimize the total cost through determining location of facilities, production plan, inventory levels, flows between facilities, transportation type, purchasing amount and selecting best supplier based on a beneficial relationship. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to validate the model and examine the effects of considering discount according to purchase amount and loyalty on the supply chains costs and decisions. Computational results show the effectiveness and usefulness of the model.
