Vendor is the key component in the supply chain flow. A company abbreviated as UTPE is one of the biggest manufacturing companies in Indonesia that produces heavy equipment. The main materials are plates and spare parts that have been supplied by eight vendors. The current system of vendor selection is based on tardiness of delivery time, but every vendor has different frequency of delivery so that it cannot be compared.
