“…This means that goods are produced in the right amount, at the right time, and in the right place with the aim of achieving a minimum overall cost of the system and also achieving the desired service level. Then Pires et al defines Supply Chain Management as a network of suppliers, manufacturing, assembly, distribution, and logistics facilities that form purchasing functions from the material, the transformation of materials into semi-finished goods and finished products, and distribution processes of products to customers [6].…”

Various disasters that occurred either in Indonesia or in other countries have shown the necessity to pay more attention to people who are affected by the disaster. The problems that are often faced by people who are affected by the impacts of natural disasters such as having unequal access, discrimination, forced relocation, violence related to sexual and gender, loss of documentation, unsafe settlement, and various matters that related to property compensation. One of the major natural disasters with a huge number of evacuees was the eruption of the Mount Agung eruption in Karangasem District, Bali. This study investigates the strategies that have been implemented by Indonesian Government as well as examines what the Logistics Assistance Distribution Theory says to manage the aids distribution.

“…Indeed, there has been much discussion within the supply chain management literature regarding the positive impact of cooperation on project performance, in terms of cost, time, quality, buildability and innovation. The extensive literature on ‘collaborative partnerships’ (CII, 1989; Bennett & Jayes, 1995; Bennett & Jayes, 1998; Holti et al ., 2000) has been supplemented by the recent literature on virtual enterprises (Pires et al ., 2001), a dynamic and temporary form of cooperation that acquires characteristics of a supply chain structure. However, there has been debate around the emergence of ‘partnering’ as the vehicle for change and the conditions that encourage or inhibit such collaboration (Bresnen & Marshall, 2000a, b; Green, 1999a, b; Love et al ., 2002).…”

This paper will provide an introduction to the argument that there is considerable evidence of poor thinking within the construction industry. The failure to understand the circumstances that are facing industry players will prevent clients, contractors and suppliers from achieving their own objectives. The current problems are further compounded by the advice espoused by the government‐sponsored industry reports advocating generic approaches. In response to these problems the paper will provide practitioners with a theoretical framework for understanding: the structure of the industry and its constituent supply chains; the attributes of buyer and supplier power; the appropriateness of certain relationships according to the firm's power position within the construction supply chain; and, the circumstances where the recent industry initiatives and an integrated supply chain approach may be implemented with success.
