As this dependency increases, the extent of risk and uncertainty also increase. This situation requires effective coordination among SC members to meet these challenges. Therefore, for better understanding of the coordination in supply chain and methodologies to achieve it, a systematic literature review is presented to elaborate the term coordination, and enlist the important coordination mechanisms.

As this dependency increases, the extent of risk and uncertainty also increase. This situation requires effective coordination among SC members to meet these challenges. Therefore, for better understanding of the coordination in supply chain and methodologies to achieve it, a systematic literature review is presented to elaborate the term coordination, and enlist the important coordination mechanisms.
