Abstract:
Supply Chains are generally complex with different activities within itself or spread over other organizations. It is ultimately necessary to coordinate the supply chain system so as to bring together multiple organizations and functions effectively for achieving the performance. In this paper a review of coordination mechanisms applicable to Indian industries is made and an attempt is done to develop a framework of coordination mechanisms suitable for Indian supply chains with an intention to use fuzzy logic.
