Abstract
The need to satisfy a more demanding customer in a scenery where deadlines and costs must be ever smaller to maintain competitiveness, together with increased uncertainty about demand, has been leading organizations to collaborate to such a level that now the competition is not between isolated enterprises, but between supply chains. The integration of information systems in such environment is a recognized problem, aggravated by the selection complexity of a combination of technologies to support, to the greatest possible extent, the supply chain performance. This paper proposes an approach for a decision support model based on compensatory fuzzy logic, to facilitate the selection of technologies to be used for integrating the information systems in a supply chain.
