  • Abstract
    In this paper, we propose an optimization model for the supplier selection in the global context. Pertinent global factors are considered in the model such as the uncertainty and fluctuation of exchange rates and the delivery lead time uncertainty. We linearize the model and solve it with the commercial software Cplex. Some managerial insights that illustrate the practical and the theoretical interest of the model are discussed.
