About the Symposium
With the increasing importance of supply chain management to the firms today, it has become utmost critical that the performance of chain is better than that of the competitors. It is even said that the competition today is not between individual firms but between supply chains. Because of this the firms invested heavily in supply chain management techniques to make the chain highly efficient. There has been a lot of research in last two to three decades in this area. What has changed now is the nature of overall environment in which a supply chain operates. The researchers and practitioners both agree that the methodologies and techniques developed in those years have become less effective in the current scenario.
This symposium seeks to encourage research on finding the current supply chain practices most suited to the current volatile and dynamic environment. The literature is filled up with the proposed practices and some have over the time found acceptance among the practitioners. But the overall environment today has changed a lot and it is needed to be tested that those well-established practices are as effective as they were then. Also, the need of the hour is to come up with better modeling and optimization techniques that are tailor made for the current situation. Such research will help the researchers and practitioners alike in finding a way in the over cluttered area of supply chain management. This will also guide the future researchers in the direction they should move on so as to make their research more worthwhile.
