Abstract

Supply chain is a complex system with many challenges to accomplish an important goal. Since the dynamical essence of supply chain is stemmed from the customer demands so decision making will be a major issue in this particular topic. However the decisions wont be usually in an optimum level because of the higher complexity of the system. In addition, the various supervisions of lots of groups with variety of managerial issues on different echelons have made some dilemmas to achieve the overall goal of the system. The aim of this study is developing a system dynamic model for better understanding of the blood supply chain behavioral pattern. Also the reflection of the current model is obtained and some comparisons among the current model and four different scenarios are investigated. The analysis at the end shows the system performance under four various investigated scenarios.
