In this paper, a mathematical programming model is presented for integrated problem of closed loop supply chain network design and supplier selection. The suppliers  propose discount policy based on purchase amount and loyalty of buyers which are both taken from the elements of RFM (Recency, Frequency and Monetary) technique. The main objective of this paper which is formulated by a mixed-integ...

Recovery of used products is receiving much attention recently due to growing environmental concerns.In this paper, we address the carbon footprint basedon problem arising in closed-loop supply chain where returned products are collected from customers. These returned products can either be disposed or be remanufactured to be sold as new ones again. Here, we formulate a comprehensive closed-loo...

Based on analyzing the difficulties of closed-loop supply chain operation management, considering the new environment as the economic society developing continuously and discussing the feasibility of virtual enterprise, an operation management mode for the closed-loop supply chain based on virtual enterprise is presented in this paper. The organization framework, the operational process, the dy...

This paper consider optimization decision-making of closed-loop supply chain based on revenue sharing contract and prospect theory, and study the effect of lose aversion on the performance of closed-loop supply chain. We establish a decision-making model for the closed-loop supply chain which consists a loss averse retailer and a loss averse manufacturer. Through the analysis of this model unde...

With the constant changes of the market demand trends and modern information technology which greatly influence supply chain operation and management, postponement has been developed to be an important strategy in some of the supply chain processes. This paper studies the multi-period and multi-commodity flow supply chain network equilibrium problem with postponement strategy under a type of su...

To make informed forecasting and replenishment decisions, many companies bring together operational elements of production and distribution with sales and marketing, executing Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) collaborative improvement processes. As cross-functional and consensus-based processes, S&OP activities create value by keeping supply and demand in balance. But most S&OP arrangements...

Joint managed inventory is an advanced supply chain inventory management tool, which will effectively tackle the complicated problem between the inventory cost of supply chain and service level. The research on inventory model and its’ control under JMI environment is a hot issue at present. In this paper, the authors deeply discuss the question of the inventory time costs about the multi-produ...

Although Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) implementation faces a host of challenges, WalMart perseveres in its drive for RFID adoption throughout its supply chain. By being such early adopters of RFID, Wal-Mart’s suppliers suffer increased costs which put pressure to bear on their profitability. In the face of the additional costs of RFID, why has Wal-Mart chosen to mandate the use of RFID...
