Abstract
The major findings are: (A) under simultaneous and sequential analysis, performance increased with span of control. (B) Sequential results outperformed the simultaneous results at all performance measures. (C) Production level profit is highest under exponential membership function, storage level under linear membership function, and processing level under hyperbolic membership function. (D) Supply chain performance is enhanced but not significantly when the product quality, supply reliability, and transaction costs are prioritized to reflect relative importance.
