Abstract
In the Chaos/Anarchy business environment of the construction industry of Iran, the Sustainable Antifragile Agile Lean (SAAL)
supply chain strategy was proposed as antifragile and value-creating approach. In this strategy, just-in-time data management
and analysis are very important to make decisions. The control tower as a controlling unit based on data is the core of this supply
chain. The purpose of this article is to investigate the implementation of the control tower in the supply chain of the construction
industry. For this purpose, two goals should be followed. The first step is to determine the main indicators to focus on for the
initial implementation of the control tower. The second step is to measure the considered indicators using the available data from
before the implementation, and after the implementation to compare the performance. To achieve the first goal and to identify
the categories of information these categories were divided into three main categories: upstream, midstream and downstream.
According to experts’ opinion was considered the middle part of the supply chain, which is carried out on the site by an executive
team. At this stage, among the available indicators, the most important indicators were considered using the best-worst method
according to previous projects’ data to compare the data. The results of the implementation of a control tower approach showed
that it provides the possibility of managing manufacturing operations. This system can guide the managers of the organisation
to identify the best strategies and improve risk management in response to the needs, requirements, guidelines, and changing
opinions of the stakeholders and external global conditions.
