An interconnected series of the blood management is called blood supply chain management (BSCM). The stages of BSCM consisted of blood collecting, production, inventory, and distribution. The main challenges in BSCM are related to shortage, outdate, and supply chain cost which needed to minimize. Naturally, problems in BSCM are complex, it is not an easy task to find the solution. This complexity brought by several factors as follows: its inflicted risk, the uncertainty of supply and demand, blood nature as perishable commodity, demand uniqueness, and cost occurred. This research purposes was to review of various research related to BSCM and highlight opportunities to develop further research in blood supply chain (BSC). The result of this research is a suggestion on various possible future research to be explored in BSC, for example, developing an adaptive inventory model to support blood supply chain management that could be responsive toward demand fluctuation and developing collecting strategy to minimize shortage, outdate and incurred cost in supply chain level.

Blood supply chain management is very complex system. By considering blood’s demand that characterized as stochastic, therefore information and communication among stakeholders are considered as important cycle in supply chain. This research is objected to design interactive communication model based on information technology with android as platform to create effective customer-supplier relationship to support Customer Relationship Management or better known as CRM. The methods that suggested in designing its information system are Quality Function Deployment (QFD) approach, Kano Model and Morphological Chart. From mentioned methods, attributes of design and specification priorities of purposed android system technology design are established. Attributes of design will be adjusted with customers’ requirements derived from customer voice that will further be integrated with technical responds in QFD. Technical responds will provide priorities on each design’s attribute of android information system and will be forwarded to the specifications determination by using morphological chart. Later, work flow of design system will be generated by using Data Flow Diagram (DFD). The result of the research will demonstrate the design of information system technology based on android that already adjusted with the requirement of donors as means of communication between suppliers and customers in blood supply chain.

Pandemic covid has changed the business view to be more dynamic to business performance. The policy of restricting activity also undermines business difficulties that occur, so it is necessary to find how businesses can survive wholesale. This research was conducted to determine the effect of supply chain management (SCM) on multi-channel retailing and business performance in the era of pandemic covid-19 and restrictions on community mobility. Using analysis of this research path is divided into two criteria of direct and indirect influence. This study was conducted on several wholesale shops in Indonesia with 99 respondents. The main finding of this study is that SCM can affect business performance through multi-channel retailing with three main indicators: inventory investment, inventory efficiency, and forecasting accuracy. The added value gained from this research is from the test results obtained that a good inventory management scheme and forecasting and support from many supplies and sales channels will drive business performance for the better.

Purpose: To establish the influence of bid challenge structure on supply chain management in Kenya.Methodology: The study embraced descriptive research design in order to provide a framework to examine current conditions, trends and status of events. The respondents of the study were all published bid challenges cases decisions in PPARB website for a period of three years. The period covered 2011- 2013. The number of bid challenge decided cases was 173 for the study period. Primary data was collected using semi structured questionnaires. These questionnaires were constructed with both open and closed ended questions to enable for quantitative and qualitative analysis respectively. Data was analysed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Quantitative data was computed descriptively using frequencies and percentages while for inferential statistics regression analysis was conducted at a 5% (0.05) test significance level.Results: Procurement Review coefficient of 0.865 was found to be positive at significant level of 0.0012 and this indicates that Procurement Review has a positive influence on Supply chain projects, (X2) Administrative Review coefficient of 0.868 was found to be positive at significant level of 0.0022 and this indicates that Administrative Review has a positive influence on Supply chain projects, (X3) Judicial Review coefficient of 0.810 was found to be positive at significant level of 0.0019 and this indicates that Judicial Review has a positive influence on Supply chain projects. (X4) Independence of Review Authority coefficient of 0.741 was found to be positive at significant level of 0.001 and this indicates that Independence of Review Authority has a positive influence on Supply chain projects.Unique contribution to policy and practice: The study prescribes that resources need to be more utilized to enable more development and less wastage in the company. The study also recommends the company stakeholders to be actively involved in Supply chain projects.
