Abstract

Supplier cooperation strategy plays an important role in the strength of the organization in today's market. The ability to monitor supplier performance and monitor the cooperation strategy between the organization and the supplier is a critical capability to maintain a strong organization-supplier relationship. This article examines the selection of the cooperation model with the supplier and monitoring the cooperation strategy over time by continuously monitoring the performance of the supplier over time. In this paper, a multi-variable multi-profile monitoring model is presented in two stages for monitoring the supplier's unanticipated costs. In the first step, criteria and  indicators to evaluate the delivery process, quality are extracted according to library resources and the opinion of experts and elites of the industry. In the next phase, in the first phase of monitoring, using the T^2 method, model parameters based on successive differences are            calculated and monitored, and in the second phase, the likelihood ratio method is used to monitor the supplier's unforeseen costs over time. to show its control chart in the shortest possible time if there is a warning. In the last stage, by using the results of the profile of the delivery process and the quality and monitoring of the unforeseen costs, a decision is made regarding the selection and monitoring of the cooperation strategy with the supplier. This model has been implemented in the automotive industry of Iran Khodro Company and the supplier of gearbox parts by Niro Travezah Company.
