Abstract

Regarding the extended concept of coordination generally or
specially in supply chain contexts, we aimed to identify the coordination
phenomenon in this research by determination of its elements and
dimensions. The results of the previous researches, were analyzed by the
Metha-synthesis research method and when seven steps were passed, the
supply chain coordination in automotive industry, were categorized in 5
dimensions, 16 sub-dimensions and 57 elements. Finally, by using the
Shanon entropy method, the effect coefficient of the elements was
determined in 194 previous researches.
