Many companies are interested in sharing production progress information with their supply chain partners. While some conceptual studies have addressed the importance of sharing production progress information in supply chains, the literature does not show how to quantify the benefits of sharing production progress information. This paper uses a simulation model to estimate the expected value of information...
This paper describes the concept of the risk pooling and its application into effective inventory management of PCBA production for mobile devices. The application is to aggregate all common components demands of PCBA models and manage them through just in time replenishment with kit-to-lines. Only those unique parts are kitted directly to production lines. The results of the application illustrate...
In our paper, a two-echelon supply chain with one supplier and multiple retailers is introduced. The products are perishable and sold over a single selling season. Traditionally, the retailers order products in the selling season, and the dynamic games between the supplier and retailers are constructed. Now the supplier gives one of the retailers a chance to order products before the selling season,...
A supply planning for multilevel serial production systems under lead time uncertainties is considered. The techniques used in industry are often based on the assumption that the lead times are known. However, in a supply chain the lead times are often random variables. Therefore, it is necessary to find the best values of the planned lead times minimising the total cost. It is supposed that the demand...
Many companies that seek to jointly build a collaborative commerce chain system (CCCS) with their supply chain partners face a challenge to estimate the investment value while the attitude toward the participation is full of uncertainty. This research provides an option game valuation approach that clarifies the investment uncertainties by analyzing the expected revenue, cost, and time to the market...
This paper studies the manufacturer's return policy and the retailers' decisions in a supply chain consisting of one manufacturer and two competing and risk-averse retailers under a single-period framework. The manufacturer sells her short-life-cycle products through two competing retailers, and the product demand is random and sensitive to the retailers' selling prices. We incorporate the risk measure...
