Abstract

Designing a performance evaluation system that is balanced and congruent with a company’s supply chain system mission can be a challenge. After discussing several facets of this problem, this chapter looks at ways of evaluating a SCS’s economic performance. More specifically, it studies the modeling of the revenues and costs necessary to design value-creating networks. Since these networks must be designed to provide superior performance during several years, future results are necessarily uncertain, and the measurement of value-at-risk over the planning horizon considered is also discussed.

    The min is an order point and the max a replenishment level.

  4. 4.

    See Rosenfield et al. (1985) for a good discussion of the strategic implications of different forms of cost and revenue curves.

  5. 5.

    Shank and Govindarajan (1993) show how to construct and use value chains covering the whole of an industry.
