“…Some experts use Monte Carlo Simulation, Bayesian Networks, and System Dynamics Method to build the simulation models [22][23][24][25], but these kinds of simulation models, which can simulate static structures, can hardly simulate the dynamic variation process of the military supply chain network's structure. With the development of complex networks, the complex network technology is used to evaluate and optimize structural properties of supply chain networks while regarding them as continuous networks.…”

The effectiveness of military supply chain networks is an important reference for logistics decision-making, and it is crucial to evaluate it scientifically and accurately. This paper highlights the problem from the perspective of dynamic and discrete networks. A topological structure model with the characteristics of dynamic and discreteness is used to describe the structure of military supply chain networks (MSCNs). In order to provide a platform for evaluating the effectiveness, simulation algorithms based on topological structure models for MSCNs are presented. Considering military and economic factors, evaluation metrics including supply capability and supply efficiency are proposed. By applying the model and algorithms to a POL supply network in a theater, we obtain the values of supply capability and efficiency metrics in a dynamic environment. We also identify an optimal solution from multiple feasible solutions to help decision-makers to make scientific and rational decisions by using exploratory analysis method. The results show that new evaluation metrics can capture important effectiveness requirements for military supply networks positively. We also find the proposed method in this paper can solve the problem of evaluating the effectiveness of dynamic and discrete network effectiveness evaluation in a feasible and effective manner.

Resumo. Atualmente, as organizações buscam satisfazer as necessidades de clientes e aumentar a eficiência da cadeia de suprimentos. Nesse sentido, a inacurácia das informações de estoque desafia estes objetivos ao causar a redução do nível de serviço e o aumento de custos operacionais. Setores públicos e privados adotam tecnologias inovadoras, visando mitigar tal inacurácia. Portanto, será examinada a contribuição da Identificação por Radiofrequência (Radio Frequency Identification -RFID) no incremento da acuracidade de estoque de sobressalentes em navios de guerra, contribuindo para maior eficiência logística de meios operativos empregados na Base de Defesa da Amazônia Azul. O Retorno sobre Investimento (Return on Investment -ROI) de aproximadamente 67,63 demonstra que a solução proposta é viável e eficaz.

Nowadays, organizations seek to satisfy their customers" needs and to increase the efficiency of the supply chain. In this sense, the inaccuracy of the inventory information defies these goals by causing the reduction of the service level and the increase of the operational costs. Public and private sectors use innovative technologies, aiming to mitigate the inaccuracy. However, the contribution of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) will be examined in increase of the spare parts inventory accuracy in warships, contributing for a higher logistic efficiency of the operative means used in Blue Amazon Base of Defense. The Return of Investment (ROI) of approximately 67.63 demonstrates that the proposed solution is viable and effective.
