Bridging the implementation gap in MCABC inventory management: from a taxonomy to practical archetypes

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite increasing demands for resilient and sustainable supply chains, inventory management often relies on outdated single‐criterion analyses. While multi‐criteria ABC (MCABC) analyses provide a theoretically mature assessment of resilience‐sustainability‐benefit trade‐offs in inventory, their adoption remains limited due to fragmented ...

Assessing inconsistencies in the FITradeoff method: a comparison of two preference modeling paradigms

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Many decision‐making processes are susceptible to errors and inconsistencies introduced by decision‐makers (DMs). The development of decision support systems (DSS) has brought about a way to guide DMs through complex decision scenarios. However, due to the complexity of the process, inconsistencies may still arise.

Navigating Supply Shocks: Sector Resilience and Production Prices Through Stochastic Input–Output Modeling

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a novel multivariate stochastic framework for assessing systemic risks, such as climate and nature‐related shocks, within production or financial networks. By embedding a linear stochastic fluid network, interpretable as a generalized vector Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process, into the production network of interdependent ...
