Abstract

In today's markets, customers demand accurate product information, while supply chain stakeholders seek transparency throughout organizational processes and supply chain operations. Supply chain transparency has emerged as a key element for achieving business excellence. However, measuring its level with current performance measures remains challenging. This research incorporates the Lean, Agile, Resilient, and Green (LARG) approach into performance measures to achieve supply chain transparency. The study aims to identify LARG-based performance measures to enhance supply chain transparency through a literature review and Q-sorting technique. We administered a questionnaire survey to 31 experts. The key findings highlight total supply chain visibility, information readiness, service reliability, business continuity plan readiness, and efficiency as essential measures for enhancing transparency. We also identified specific measures for each element of supply chain transparency, including visibility, traceability, knowledge integration, governance, and sustainability. Accordingly, we present detailed guidelines for improving supply chain transparency performance. Lastly, the article discusses theoretical and managerial implications and makes recommendations for future research.

整合LARG措施以提高供应链透明度绩效

在当今的市场中，客户需要准确的产品信息，而供应链利益相关者则在整个组织流程和供应链运营中寻求透明度。供应链透明度已成为实现卓越业务的关键因素。然而，用目前的绩效指标衡量其水平仍然具有挑战性。本研究将精益、敏捷、弹性和绿色（LARG）方法纳入绩效衡量，以实现供应链透明度。本研究旨在通过文献综述和q分类技术确定基于大容量的绩效指标，以提高供应链的透明度。我们对31位专家进行了问卷调查。主要调查结果强调了整个供应链的可见性、信息就绪度、服务可靠性、业务连续性计划就绪度和效率是提高透明度的基本措施。我们还确定了供应链透明度的每个元素的具体措施，包括可见性、可追溯性、知识集成、治理和可持续性。因此，我们提出了改善供应链透明度绩效的详细指导方针。最后，本文讨论了理论和管理意义，并对未来的研究提出了建议。
