COMPETENCE BASED SUPPLY VALUE CHAIN EFFECTIVENESS

Abstract This paper explores and illustrates an analytical framework to assess the influence of competency attributes in supply value chain effectiveness. Effectiveness in supply value chain is evaluated within a framework based on four levels; the supply value chain targets, knowledge management dynamics, competence levels and competency success attributes. The analytical network process is used to determine the most beneficial competence success attributes in a case study performed for three companies located in different stages of textile supply chain. Relying on the first evidence of the application, recommendations will be made for further studies.
