Abstract

The optimal productivity model plays a significant role in various supply chain management (SCM) decision support systems. Therefore, the precision of the optimal productivity model is necessary to improve SCM's effectiveness. A factor often ignored is that transactions of certain goods are assembled within an enterprise as dynamic structures of various distribution ratios. Regardless of such structure, optimal model productivity is often produced; however, the productivity model's optimal precision can be enhanced by taking it into account. This focusses on strategic thinking and planning, where various process improvement mechanisms are developed. Therefore, in this study, data envelopment analysis (DEA) has been utilized to enhance supply chain efficiency and effectiveness management. This paper explores an optimal productivity model that evaluates the supply chain efficiency and effectiveness management. This paper discusses the policy preparation demands of the decision support systems and develops a framework that organisations can use to control the implementation process.

1. Introduction To Decision Support Systems In Scm

Nowadays, the dynamic and interrelated manufacturing environment's influence makes the SCM an essential element for many researchers. A significant portion of this SCM centered on supply chain elements such as assessing vendors, sales, and production with DEA involvement (Fallahpour et al., 2017 ; Vu DL et al., 2019 ; Govindan et al., 2020). DEA has measured the effect of corporate capital planning programs on supply chain management (Nguyen et al., 2021). However, DEA models may be efficient for Supply chain and effectiveness management (Chen et al., 2021), while modules may not be effective (Gao et al., 2020). Although attempts have been made to combine these modules into a common situation, little progress has been made because most compromises and the relationships between various supply chain modules are unknown (Song et al., 2019 ; Chaudhry et al., 2020). It is impossible that a single metric of performance will be appropriate for performance assessment, and DEA is a valuable measure for assessing the performance of the supply chains (Farivar et al., 201). Therefore, numerous DEA standards were proposed to encompass the analytic framework and case-based logic frameworks to determine supplier sourcing for the supply chain assessment (Tayal et al., 2020).

One frequently ignored factor is that sales of certain goods within a corporation are clustered into organizational systems within spatial or conceptual dimensions (Bai et al., 2019 ; Centobelli et al., 2018). The data are then predicted at various aggregate levels that are stated to help reliability and accuracy. However, the optimal productivity model from all integration stages has the undesired feature that they are hierarchically contradictory (Lindblom et al., 2017 ; Piri et al., 2017). Therefore, a strategy to reconcile predictions across aggregation levels is needed to improve accuracy (Bumblauskas et al., 2017).

SCM's successful approach includes compromises between principles, including maximization of value and convergence of systems (Abdel-Basset et al., 2020), enhancement of reliability (Priyan et al., 2019), and reduced processing time (Hu et al., 2020). Successful SCM calls for extensive coordination and participation to organize and improve competitivity within supply chains for production, distribution, and materials management activities (VE et al., 2020). When all individual participants (territorial organizations) integrate and operate as a single cohesive group in the supply chain environment, efficiency increases in the SCM (Nie et al., 2020 ; Manogaran et al., 2020 ; Orjuela et al., 2021).

Several conceptional mechanisms for assessing the performance of the supply chain were suggested in the literatures. Supply chain efficiency and effectiveness management measurements vary from conventional performance measurements, for example, supplier assessments, in different ways (Khalaf et al., 2019). Initially, supply chain efficiency occurs in two stages. The first phase is the accomplishment of the actual participants of the supply chain (Mishra et al., 2020). The second is the efficiency of an entire supply chain structure determined and characterized by the supply chain members (Shankar et al., 2018).
