Previously firms mainly based on financial performance to assess their progress. Thenceforth, maturity of logistic chain must be evaluated from a more comprehensive performance including, economic, environmental and social dimensions. As we know, each logistic chain is characterized by several best practices, so the purpose of this paper is to determine the sustainable performance of each one from these best practices. Aware that logistic chain performance should balance economic profitability with respect for natural environment and social performance, with objective to satisfy all stakeholders, the authors propose a mathematical approach to assess the performance. This mathematical approach was tested in a logistics chain of automobile industry.
