A generic sustainable performance management system for hospital supply chain: design & analysis.

The assessment of the hospital supply chain management represents a key challenge by virtue of the complexity of the healthcare sector. The purpose of this study is to introduce a hybrid approach that helps hospital administrators to clearly identify, evaluate, and narrow the key performance criteria for their supply chain. The methodology attempts to minimise information loss, reduce the fuzziness and subjectivity of the collected data and describes the interdependence among criteria.
