Abstract EN
The paper tries to add the network structure factors of agile supply chain network into agility evaluation.
The paper firstly presents three concepts including node strength centrality, betweenness centrality, and network centrality.
They are used to calculate the weight of node enterprises in the agile supply chain network.
And then, a series of agility indicators are designed to evaluate agility of agile supply chain network.
AHP is used to calculate the weight of the indicators.
Next, these indicators are used to get initial agility evaluation matrix by means of Delphi method, Data Mining, and so forth.
Then FCE is used to calculate the membership degree on agility of node enterprises by combining the evaluation matrix with the weight of indicators.
Last, the evaluation result of comprehensive agility of agile supply chain network is calculated on the basis of considering the weight of node enterprises.
This method can reflect the effect which the network structure of supply chain network makes on the agility of the supply chain network.
It is a complement to the current evaluation methods of agility.
