ABSTRACTThe ability of systems or organisations to provide services to, and accept services from, other systems or organisations is the fundamental tenet of interoperability. This paper introduces supply chain interoperability and proposes it as a metric to facilitate supply chain management performance analysis. Interoperability can be considered a similarity metric with regard to a set of characteristics. Our methodology adapts and expands an interoperability measurement tool initially developed in and for a military context. Through an illustrative example, we demonstrate the assessment of interoperability across a supply chain, where participants are described using deterministic and stochastic characters. Our measurement methodology can assist in efficiently directing resources to best improve interoperability between and among the various elements of a supply chain. |
