Summary: | To fulfill a project, there are varieties of organizations cooperating as a
supply chain. Being in large numbers and diversity, the supply chain
may result in complexity and uncertainty in managing the projects;
although it provides the required resources to achieve project
objectives. The more a project faces complexity, the higher attention is
required to effective management of its inter-organizational
relationship model. In the following study, the structure of relations
between organizations in two Iranian petrochemical projects is studied
and compared. Modeling methods and analysis are based on Social
Network Analysis (SNA). After modeling the network structure of each
project, the inter-organizational relationships model are analyzed and
compared to the ideal model of Iranian National Petrochemical
Company (NPC) and the results are presented. Finally some areas for
further research are also discussed. |
