This paper focus on studying of demand disruption. Based on understand of risk conduction of demand disruption, how to control the effect of demand disruption is described qualitatively from three aspects. Finally, in a circumstance that price-sensitive coefficient is affected by demand disruption, how retailer to re-price products is discussed qualitatively. In order to ensure retailers order products...
Returns polices is an effective mechanism in supply chain coordination. However, whether or not it works when participants of the supply chain have their own preferences on the risk is an important research issue. This paper investigates this kind of issue: The retailer faces a risk preference measured by the exponential utility function and the supplier as a Stackelberg leader provides a returns...
Most of papers of disruption management of supply chain were based on the assumption that only a single factor was disrupted. But in practice, the unexpected event will inevitably lead to a number of factors disruptions in the supply chain system. This paper considers the scale of market demand and retailer's purchase costs disruptions in the disruption management of supply chain. When demand is a...
A buyback contract between a upstream supplier and a downstream retailer in a two stages supply chain model with downside-risk control is designed and modeled, both of whom are risk-averse, and the retailer's risk aversion structure information is uncertainty for the supplier, who only have a prior probability distribution. The supplier's optimal contracts under full information and asymmetric information...
With the increasing interdependence among supply chain members, bankruptcy of a supply chain member may cause other member firms to get into financial difficulties. This paper investigates the methods for reducing the probability of bankruptcy through supply chain coordination. Based on the developed multiagent simulation model for a simple three-echelon supply chain, the effects of coordination mechanisms,...
Behavioral issues become one of the main concerns of research on supply chain coordination. Within the frame-work of behavioral decision theory, the impact of reference point and gains risk aversion/losses risk seeking effects is respectively investigated on supply chain performance under Pareto optimality criterion. It indicates that for the former the relative risk of losses in supply chains is...
Revenue-sharing (RS) contract is a kind of mechanism to improve the performance or to achieve the perfect coordination of supply chain (SC). In this paper, considering that supplier and retailer has risk-averse preferences respectively, we propose a model of an SC contract aimed at coordinating a two-level SC, which is based on revenue sharing mechanism, and the customer demand is stochastic. Then...
The following topics were dealt with: service strategy; service innovation; service quality management; service performance evaluation; customer relationship management; service operations management; decision techniques; risk management; data mining; artificial intelligence; service information; e-commerce; Web service; supply chain coordination; and logistics management.
Unexpected events may cause some disruptions in the supply chain system. While unexpected events on the coordinated operation of the supply chain have increasingly influenced, existing research literature on the supply chain is in a stationary environment. Based on the modelling of supply chain system and the unexpected events, we give communication mechanisms of an unexpected event in the supply...
Coordination issue is addressed in a supply chain with uncertain demand. The chain consists of one upstream supplier and one downstream retailer, both of whom are risk-averse, and the supplier isn't quite aware of the retailer's risk aversion structure. The supplier's optimal contracts under full information and asymmetric information are derived and compared to investigate the impact of risk aversion...
In order to reduce the risk and cost, manufacturing enterprises turn to postponement strategy to meet differential demand of customers: this is helpful to enhance the customer service level, and this is also helpful to achieve the goal of maximizing the inventory profit. Under this assumption, inventory batch allotment shows new features, therefore, the paper proposes an optimal inventory model based...
