Procurement Strategies with Unreliable Suppliers
We propose and analyze a general periodic-review model in which the firm has access to a set of potential suppliers, each with specific yield and price characteristics. Assuming that unsatisfied demand is backlogged, the firm incurs three types of costs: (i) procurement costs, (ii) inventory-carrying costs for units carried over from one period to the next, and (iii) backlogging costs. A procur...
متن کاملHorizontal Suppliers Coordination with Uncertain Suppliers Deliveries
⎯In this study, two (or more) supply chains where the suppliers share information on their production, inventory and delivery status are considered. Due to uncertain supplier deliveries and lead time, horizontal supplier coordination is implemented to reduce lead time and deliveries uncertainty, and thus the safety inventory due to risk pooling effect. As a result, the total system profit incre...
متن کاملOnline Procurement Intermediaries with Differentiated Suppliers*
Industrial buyers who seek to procure inputs have the option of contracting the process out to procurement intermediaries. Many of these intermediaries now operate using Internet-based software to enhance the efficiency of their services. We develop a theoretical model of a buyer who wishes to procure an input from one of many differentiated suppliers. The buyer chooses between conducting the p...
متن کاملCompetitive procurement with corruption
We study competitive procurement administered by a corrupt agent who is willing to manipulate his evaluation of contract proposals in exchange for bribes. With complete information and no corruption, the efficient firm will win the contract for sure. If the agent is corrupt and has large manipulation power, however, bribery makes it costly for the efficient firm to secure a sure win, so in equi...
متن کاملA Single Supplier Procurement Model With Random Yield
In this paper, we develop a procedure for selecting a supplier. Suppliers are characterized by their lead time, price and quality (random yield). Each purchased item is acceptable with a given probability and independent of the others. We assume the demands are deterministic with no set-up cost and backordering is allowed. For each supplier, an optimal ordering policy is developed. We prove the...
