Quantity discount coordination for supply chains with deteriorating inventory

Applying competing newsvendor model, we studied the contract choice games between supply chains, each consisting of one manufacturer and one retailer. We investigated the effect of the competition intensity on the equilibrium strategies of contract choice games. It can be found that, counter to the earlier literature, in the context of competing supply chains, the choices of quantity-discount contracts are the Nash equilibrium structure for both manufacturers, however, the manufacturers will get into classic prisoners’ dilemma if the degree of competition intensity is high.

Codes Of Conduct

Insbesondere in komplexen Supply Chains ist es heute üblich, dass Kunden ihre Lieferanten über Selbstverpflichtungserklärungen (Codes of Conduct) steuern. Forschungen aus anderen Industrien zeigen die Möglichkeiten, aber auch Grenzen der Arbeit mit diesem Instrument des Lieferantenmanagements. Davon können auch Krankenhauseinkäufer profitieren.
