講座內容簡介:
Dr. Jauhar introduces a Non-Parametric method and a Meta-heuristic technique to solve a Third-Party Reverse Logistics Partner (3PRLP) Selection problem. The talk will also draw attention to the process of determining how orders are allocated to each 3PRLP, using a multi-objective mathematical model in the Canadian Cellular Phone industry. The abstract of the lecture is as follows. End of life (EOL) electronic products companies face growing governing and social pressures to implement reverse logistics (RL) activities in order to develop sustainable supply chains. However, RL activities for EOL electronic products are complicated and require special attention. In recent years, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have begun to focus on their RL operations to better meet consumer demand and comply with environmental regulations. Therefore, the role of 3PRLPs has become essential to complex RL operations. Unlike current models in the RL literature, this research simultaneously draws attention to the selection of 3PRLPs and the process of determining how orders are allocated to each 3PRLP, in a comprehensive and novel framework. Our proposed decision-making framework contains two phases. The first phase is a holistic approach that integrates data envelopment analysis (DEA) with a differential evolution (DE) algorithm to increase the discriminatory power and improve the ranking while measuring the efficiencies of 3PRLPs. In the second phase, we utilize the measured efficiencies in the proposed multi-objective mathematical model to allocate orders to 3PRLPs. Two solution approaches are employed to solve the proposed multi-objective model and to find Pareto-optimal solutions. The application of the proposed framework is illustrated in Canada’s cellphone industry.
