| Tiivistelmä: | Companies strive to position themselves to maximize the value they add to the supply chains in which they are embedded. This raises strategic questions, e.g. Which durable resources should be developed to enhance current core competencies? The aim of this paper is to propose a mathematical programming model of the extended enterprise which can be used to investigate this type of strategic networking issues. A number of general network modeling constructs are first proposed. A model to optimize the supply chain structure under specific assumptions on the nature of production, cost and value functions in typical production/distribution companies is then derived. A heuristic to obtain solutions from the model is also presented. Finally, an example based on a refrigerator company is used to illustrate the usefulness of the approach. |
