The Effect of Supply Chain Decoupling Points on Demand Planning. an Empirical Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper seeks to investigate the effect of the location of material and information decoupling points on the extent and role of demand planning in supply chains. In order to achieve this goal, the relationships between the location of two types of decoupling points are identified and necessary characteristics of demand planning process are recognized. The theoretical considerations are then evidenced by cross-sector findings obtained from an exploratory study carried out in European supply chains.

متن کاملRobust supply chain coordination modeling: A revenue management perspective
The revenue management concept and techniques are applied to model the coordination of supply chain elements. The fundamental premise of this approach is synchronization of a group of business entities consist-ing of a manufacturer and multiple suppliers to achieve an optimal supply chain capacity plans. The output of the supply chain can be various products and thus it is measured in terms of ...
متن کاملA possibilistic bi-objective model for a competitive supply chain network design under variable coverage
In this paper, the strategic planning of a supply chain under a static chain-to-chain competition on the plane is addressed. It is assumed that each retailer has a coverage area called the radius of influence. The demand of each demand zone is divided equally between the retailers which can cover that market. However, the demand of distant customers who are not in the retailers’ radius of influ...
