Abstract

Designing an efficient construction supply chain involves numerous complexities. Therefore, the imperative of designing an appropriate supply chain, considering the high diversity of resources (nonrenewable), holds significant importance.  Given the variable nature of the project environment, the dynamic progress of the project, and the risks associated with construction projects, the project may deviate from the scheduled timeline. On the other hand, the quality of resources plays a crucial role in the construction quality of construction projects. Therefore, in this study, a multi-objective mixed-integer programming model is proposed for the design of a two-echelon supply chain network in the construction industry. The objectives of the model include minimizing supply chain costs, minimizing deviation from resources time delivery, and maximizing the quality of resources. This framework is capable of dynamically scheduling resources in terms of timing and delivery, as well as selecting appropriate suppliers restricted to authorized facilities within a network. Both classical methods and the Benders Decomposition Algorithm are employed to solve the presented model. The problem was solved for three sizes. The Benders Decomposition Algorithm was able to efficiently solve the problem for all three sizes in a very short amount of time.
