    Urban Policymaking for a Developing City Using a Hybridized Technique Based on SWOT, AHP, and GIS
    (ASCE, 2021) Singhal, Anupam; Routroy, Srikanta
    The high rate of population growth in the 21st century is causing mass migration from rural to urban settlements. Rapid urbanization in developing countries generally follows unregulated growths, urban sprawls, and inefficiencies in city planning. With the trend of rapid growth in developing countries, it has been very difficult to maintain an environmentally sustainable and socially resilient policy framework. This study proposes an urban development policy framework for sustainable planning in developing cities by coupling geographic information system (GIS) geospatial zonal analysis with strength, weakness, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) model. The hybridized approach incorporates critical issues such as disaster impact, slum settlements, infrastructure deficit, and noise pollution in urban planning. A case study of the city of Delhi was taken to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework in developing cities. The novelty of the study is that it proposes a highly flexible urban development plan based on the integrated GIS and SWOT-AHP methodology that is specific to the needs of developing economies and developing cities. The methodology also puts a strong emphasis on disaster prevention and response in the urban development plan. Results from the GIS–SWOT-AHP model can be used for region-based urban planning that prioritizes regions needing critical attention and directs the development of the city toward a sustainable future.

    Development of supply chain risk mitigation strategy: a case study
    (Inder Science, 2014) Routroy, Srikanta; Pradhan, Sudeep Kumar
    The supply chain managers are making efforts to identify, assess, manage and mitigate the supply chain risks successfully to survive in the long run and to attain competitive advantages. The failure to manage these risks effectively can have a significant negative impact on supply chain performance. Therefore, the supply chain risks should be identified, quantified and analysed and it will form the basis for developing the supply chain mitigation strategies. Therefore, a complete and structured methodology is proposed for analysing supply chain risks and developing the supply chain risk mitigation strategies in a manufacturing supply chain environment. The application of proposed methodology has been demonstrated with a manufacturing case environment. It will be quite useful in the environment where quantitative information related to supply chain risks is not available.

    Framework for green procurement: a case study
    (Inder Science, 2012-06) Routroy, Srikanta
    Manufacturing companies are putting significant effort and investment to achieve feasible and affordable greenness in their supply chains. The procurement is a major area of manufacturing supply chain and has a significant impact on the final product with respect to quality, cost and greenness. Therefore, the manufacturing organisation should incorporate green issues while procuring components, parts, sub-assembly and services from suppliers. In this paper, a conceptual framework for green procurement (GP) in manufacturing environment is proposed. The simplicity and clarity of proposed model enhances its acceptability for implementation and also ensures desired level of greenness in the procurement process.
