Effect of handling time to supply chain management in construction industry

Following its success in other sectors, the importance of supply chain management (SCM) has increasingly been recognized in the construction industry. Rationalization of activity in the supply chain process leads to a lowered production time and increased productivity. The instance of productivity i...
