The mismatch between the availability of vegetables and consumer demand is one of the causes of inefficient supply chains. This study aims to analyze the bullwhip effect on the organic leaf vegetable supply chain at PT Simply Fresh Organic (SFO). The analysis method used is a comparison between the coefficient of variation of orders created with the coefficient of variation in requests received by each supply chain institution. The data used are secondary data obtained from PT SFO. The measurement results show that the supply chain flow of organic leaf vegetables had a bullwhip effect at the PT SFO level and no bullwhip effect occurs at the retail level. The value of the BE supply chain value calculation at PT SFO shows a higher figure than at the retail level. The bullwhip effect at PT SFO occurred because of a rationing and shortage gaming policy. Therefore, each member of the supply chain must maintain transparency of data information and utilize digital technology to improve the accuracy of data forecasting requests and reservations quickly.

The purpose of this study is to measure the bullwhip effect in supply chain MAS 240 ml in PT. Sembilan Pilar Utama and Swalayan Koya. This research measure method is using bullwhip effect method that presented by Fransoo and Wouters (2000). The results of research, we know that the bullwhip effect happened because of the coefficient of variation orders higher than the coefficient of variation in product demand, inaccurate demand prediction, and order batching. The solution that may be effective to reduce the bullwhip effect that occurs is more concerned with the pattern of order and the product demand.Keywords: supply chain management, bullwhip effect.

We investigate the relationship between customer and supplier firms’ abnormal accruals to examine whether the supply chain is an important transmission channel of abnormal accruals. We propose “earnings management” hypothesis and “customer demand shock” hypothesis. Empirically, we examine the relation between a supplier’s estimated abnormal accruals and those of its major customers using Compustat Business Segment Files over the period 1987–2015. To further explore the demand shock channel, we directly test the impact of the bullwhip effect (BWE) on the linkage in abnormal accruals along the supply chain. Following the literature in operation management, we construct the amplification ratio, measured as the coefficient of variation of a firm’s orders divided by the coefficient of variation of the firm’s demand. We find that customer firms’ demand shocks link customer and supplier abnormal accruals as they propagate along the supply chain, via the BWE. Our evidence supports “customer demand shock” hypothesis. Consistent with the view that improving predictions on orders from their customers would mitigate this BWE, we find that a customer’s abnormal accruals have a much smaller impact on those of its suppliers whose auditors have expertise in the customer’s industries. Overall, our results suggest that the supply chain is an important transmission channel of abnormal accruals, and auditor expertise serves to reduce information opaqueness during this process. Our paper contributes to the literature examining the impact of BWEs on firms’ financial performance and the role of auditors’ expertise in reducing information opaqueness in supply chain.

One of the obstacles facing micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia is the bullwhip effect. The bullwhip effect is an event that occurs in the supply chain due to an increase in order fluctuations or order cancellations due to information distortions. This study aims to determine the value of the bullwhip effect and explain the main causes of its occurrence in order to explain about the approach to reducing the bullwhip effect in micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia that operational management can be maximized through operational management. This study uses quantitative methods to determine the value of the bullwhip effect. And qualitative methods are used to identify the root cause and reduction of the bullwhip effect. With primary data from interviews. In addition, secondary data comes from demand data and order data on products for distributors and retailers managed by the company. The results showed that the value of the bullwhip effect on the product at one of the micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia was almost completely above 1.00 and above the specified parameters. This provides information that there is a product bullwhip effect in one of the micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. Meanwhile, the main cause of the bullwhip effect in one of the smallest, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia is a demand forecast error.

Commemorate the life of Society 5.0 cannot separate from utilization of the latest digital technology. Advanced the education of Indonesia is the duty of the people to become Indonesian nation, that is to enrich the life of the nation. The Education of Indonesia, which has been using for the stream of Western Education namely the class style (bank style), emphasizes tables, chairs and blackboards. We must replace with a more flexible style of education and millennial oriented, no longer rely on an old-fashioned educational methods. Therefore, we need an effort in welcoming life of Society 5.0 with Soft System Methodology utilization. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative analysis method with secondary data to describe the phenomena that occur in the field with sufficient and supporting data for this paper. Based on the studies that have carried out, we can conclude that the proper use of the Soft System Methodology can advance Indonesian Education to Welcoming the Society 5.0.

Current supply chain methods are having difficulties in resolving problems arising from the lack of trust in supply chains. The root reason lies in two challenges brought to the traditional mechanism: self-interests of supply chain members and information asymmetry in production processes. Blockchain is a promising technology to address these problems. The key objective of this paper is to present qualitative analysis for blockchain in supply chain as the decision-making framework to implement this new technology. The analysis method used Val IT business case framework, validated by the expert judgements. The further study needs to be elaborated by either the existing organization that use blockchain or assessment by the organization that will use blockchain to improve their supply chain management.

Background: The increased variability in production or procurement with respect to less increase of variability in demand or sales is considered as bullwhip effect. Bullwhip effect is considered as an encumbrance in optimization of supply chain as it causes inadequacy in the supply chain. Various operations and supply chain management consultants, managers and researchers are doing a rigorous study to find the causes behind the dynamic nature of the supply chain management and have listed shorter product life cycle, change in technology, change in consumer preference and era of globalization, to name a few. Most of the literature that explored bullwhip effect is found to be based on simulations and mathematical models. Exploring bullwhip effect using machine learning is the novel approach of the present study. Methods: Present study explores the operational and financial variables affecting the bullwhip effect on the basis of secondary data. Data mining and machine learning techniques are used to explore the variables affecting bullwhip effect in Indian sectors. Rapid Miner tool has been used for data mining and 10-fold cross validation has been performed. Weka Alternating Decision Tree (w-ADT) has been built for decision makers to mitigate bullwhip effect after the classification. Results: Out of the 19 selected variables affecting bullwhip effect 7 variables have been selected which have highest accuracy level with minimum deviation. Conclusion: Classification technique using machine learning provides an effective tool and techniques to explore bullwhip effect in supply chain management.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to address the confusing use of terminology associated with tourism undertaken by Muslims and to identify key concerns associated with this type of tourism. Design/methodology/approach This is an exploratory study and adopts a critical review of literature following the evolutionary concept analysis method. Content analysis of popular UK media, UK-based tour operators’ websites and tourism strategies of destinations popular with Muslim tourists were conducted to examine the use of terminology. Findings There is no clear difference between the various terms (halal, Muslim friendly, Islamic, etc.) used. Overall, academia uses the term Islamic tourism, while the industry and media use various terms. Among destinations, however, there is no clear and consistent use of terminology. A key concern of Islamic tourism is the role of certification in assuring travellers and the lack of standardisation of halal certification. Research limitations/implications The paper is based on literature review and secondary data analysis. It lacks primary research. Practical implications This study highlights the need for consistent use of terminology across industry. Another implication is the issue surrounding halal certification of food and the importance of trust in the seller/service provide. Another trend that industry providers need to consider is the growth of the Muslim millennial traveller and the needs of this market segment. Originality/value The paper highlights the importance of studying the Muslim tourist market and provides a starting point for further research. It highlights several issues such as the need to develop a typology of Muslim tourists. Of particular interest is the concern whether halal values in danger of being commodified in the absence of a universal agreed criterion for halal certification.
