Questions and Answers

What were the main explanations for lack of stability in the performance measurement system in the supply chain according to Hald and Mouritsen (2018)?

Technical challenges, alignment, attitude and commitment, conflict and objection

Why might measuring the performance of TCSC using service level and customer satisfaction be more technically challenging?

It is very complex to measure and trace customer satisfaction service level in all stages of TCSC.

How does lack of alignment contribute to the lack of stability in the performance metrics of TCSC?

Different stages of TCSC use diverse and numerous performance metrics, leading to lack of alignment.

Why might actors in the supply chain lack commitment to certain performance metrics?

<p>They may lack interest in some metrics, leading to a lack of commitment in sharing relevant information.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How can metrics like temperature and cost create a conflict in the performance measurement of TCSC?

<p>To keep the temperature cool, energy needs to be used, which raises the cost of energy.</p> Signup and view all the answers
