“…A generalization of the PDP arises when requests are permitted to be transferred at so-called transfer points in order to minimize vehicle routing costs. Shiri et al (2020) studied the impact of allowing transfers in pickup-and-delivery systems with different modeling (objective functions), system design (number of locations and transfer points) and operational parameters (capacity, cost and number of vehicles). This study revealed the gains that are possible in many different scenarios when permitting transfers to take place.…”

“…Engineering Management in Production and Services (Carter & Rogers, 2008;Bukowski, 2019;Komza, 2017). The main support activities provided by the SCM system must encompass the planning of interorganisational and intra-organisational operations to meet customer demands (Ivanov et al, 2017;Shiri et al, 2020). Supply chain management is responsible for balanced supply and demand along the entire value-added chain (Christopher, 2011).…”

Supply chain activity control is an essential part of Supply Chain Management (SCM), ensuring compliance with customer requirements. This paper presents a case study into the control of SCM activities. The study analysed two areas involving two different SC links associated with order picking, and outsourced truck freights, respectively. The studied company had problems with these links. An approach based on developing a KPI (Key Performance Indicator) was proposed to address the issues. Consequently, different affected processes were analysed and characterised, considering the relevant data for defining a KPI. Then, strategies and methods were devised for data collection and processing regarding the system’s current state. Finally, tools were designed to facilitate the interpretation of the system’s current state and thus, pave the way for the decision-making process on corrective measures.
