PENETAPAN HARGA BERBASIS PENERIMAAN KONSUMENDI DUAL-CHANNEL SUPPLY CHAINERWIN WIDODOJurusan Teknik Industri, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) SurabayaKampus ITS, Sukolilo, Surabaya 60111Surel: [email protected] Supply Chain (DCSC) adalah sebuah struktur gabungan yang secara simultanmemanfaatkan online dan offline channel untuk mendistribusikan sebuah produk. Struktur ini menjanjikanperluasan jangkauan pasar yang berujung pada peningkatan pendapatan. Meskipun demikian, selainmenawarkan potensi, DCSC juga membawa beberapa problem. Salah satu problem yang dominan adalahpenetapan harga harga antar channel. Pada prakteknya, para pelaku DCSC seringkali secara intuitifmenetapkan harga online dan offline-nya. Belum ada sebuah mekanisme pengukuran yang representatifuntuk problem yang sebenarnya sangat penting ini. Paper ini mencoba menjawab tantangan tersebutdengan mengusulkan sebuah mekanisme estimasi pengukuran secara kuantitatif tentang penerimaanpelanggan terhadap online channel relatif terhadap offline channel. Pendekatan yang diusulkan adalahpemanfaatan model matematis tentang hubungan interplay antar harga online dan offline. Parameterpenting yang menjadi perhatian utama adalah sebuah rasio penerimaan pelanggan kepada online channelrelatif terhadap offline channel. Parameter ini diukur dari 3 kelompok produk yang dijual dalam strukturDCSC yang ada di Indonesia guna menunjukkan perbedaan karakteristik dari masing-masing kelompokproduk tersebut. Hasil percobaan numerik yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa pemanfaatan usulanmekanisme penetapan harga ini dapat meningkatkan performansi finansial DCSC amatan.Kata kunci: dual-channel supply chain, penetapan harga, online channel, offline channelABSTRACTDual-Channel Supply Chain (DCSC) is a mixed structure which simultaneously utilizes both offline andonline channel to distribute one particular product or service. This structure provides market reach extensionin which eventually leads to revenue increase. Whatsoever, aside of this advantage, DCSC also brings somechallenging problems. One prominent problem is of about between-channel pricing-problem. In its practice,DCSC actors often apply intuitive offline and online pricing without further analytical evaluation. Yet there isno representative mechanism to address this critical problem. This paper attempts to resolute this challengeby proposing a qualitative estimation mechanism on customer acceptance on online channel relative tooffline one. This proposed approach is about to utilize an interplay relationship between offline and onlineprices. The main parameter to consider is a ratio of customer acceptance parameters. These parameters areelicited from 3 groups of products which are sold under DCSC structure in Indonesian cases to exhibit thedifferent properties in each product group. Numerical experiment result shows that the utilization of thispricing mechanism may increase the financial performance of DCSC under observation.Key words: dual-channel supply chain, pricing, online channel, offline channel

Dual Channel Supply Chain

This paper investigates a dual-channel supply chain in which a manufacturer sells the product via an offline retailer or online store. The manufacturer sets the wholesale and online price, and the retailer decides the retail price with the retailer’s fairness preference and consumer’s online channel preference. Through investigating the combined impacts of fairness preference and channel preference on the enterprises’ operational strategies, this paper obtains some meaningful results. If a manufacturer thinks over the fairness preference, he decreases the wholesale price to mitigate a loss of retailer and benefit the supply chain design. The manufacturer intends to set up the online channel with a lower acceptance as the fairness preference grows. However, the gains from enhanced online channel acceptance cannot compensate for the manufacturer’s loss by the fairness effect that benefits the retailer. Moreover, the manufacturer cannot neglect the retailer’s fairness preference generating a “lose-lose” case for both members.

The Impact

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of wholesale price discrimination by a manufacturer in a retailer–e-tailer dual-channel supply chain for different product categories based on their online channel preference.Design/methodology/approachThis paper considers a dual-channel supply chain comprising of a retailer and an e-tailer engaged in competition. Game-theoretic models are developed to model the competition between the retailer and e-tailer and to derive their optimal price, optimal order quantity and optimal profit under (1) equal wholesale price strategy and (2) discriminatory wholesale price strategy. Further, a numerical example was employed to quantify the results and to capture the variation with respect to online channel preference of the product.FindingsIt is beneficial for the manufacturer to adopt a discriminatory wholesale price strategy for products having both high online channel preference and low online channel preference. However, equal wholesale price strategy is beneficial for the e-tailer and the retailer in the case of products having high online channel preference and in the case of products having low online channel preference, respectively.Practical implicationsThe study helps the manufacturers to maximize their profit by adopting the right wholesale price strategy considering the online channel preference of the product when the manufacturers are supplying to heterogeneous retailers.Originality/valueThere is scant literature on the wholesale price strategy of the manufacturer considering the heterogeneous downstream retailers. This paper contributes the literature by bridging this gap. In addition, the study establishes a link between the wholesale price strategy and online channel preference of the product.

This study focuses on a a dual-channel supply chain that consists of a capital-constrained brick-and-mortar retailer and a manufacturer, where a manufacturer can simultaneously sell products through a traditional retail channel and a direct online channel. Supplementary pricing strategy and competitive pricing strategy are simulated in our model, and we find that the former one is the better choice for the manufacturer when the retailer suffers capital constraints. In our analysis, the capital constraint on retailer could mitigate the price competition between two channels, and it may be beneficial to the manufacturer under certain conditions. Our findings show that the manufacturer should strategically provide trade credit to retailers rather than unconditionally provide it. We present two trade-credit strategies (trade credit with positive interest rate and trade credit with zero interest rate) and suggest that the manufacturer should choose an appropriate trade-credit strategy according to the initial capital of the retailer. To guide the manufacturer when and how to provide trade credit, we conduct several numerical simulations based on our results and further plot out a graph to direct the manufacturer to an appropriate strategy of trade credit.

Dual Channel Supply Chain

In a dual-channel supply, the manufacturer sells the products by both a traditional channel via the retailer and an online channel directly. Comparing with the direct channel, the retailer may provide additional services to the traditional channel. This paper studies the quantity leadership for a dual-channel supply chain with retail service. The manufacturer decides the wholesale price of the products and its selling quantity via the online channel, and the retailer decides the service level and its selling quantity via the traditional channel. We consider three Cournot competition games: Manufacturer-as-leader game, retailer-as-leader game, and simultaneous game. Optimal solutions are derived for these games. Based on the optimal solutions, we investigate the quantity leadership/followership decisions for the manufacturer and retailer, associated with the changes of some parameters. We observe that when the service sensitivity parameters are low, being a follower is a dominant strategy for the retailer; otherwise, both strategies of manufacturer-as-leader (retailer as the follower) and retailer-as-leader (manufacturer as the follower) are Nash equilibriums. We further conduct the numerical studies to investigate the impacts of parameters related to the retail service, and discuss the insights of the findings.

The Impact

This paper investigates a dual-channel supply chain consisting of a manufacturer and a retailer, where the retailer exhibits vertical and horizontal fairness concerns. The manufacturer or the retailer direct selling and e-commerce platform agency selling modes are employed to characterize the impact of retailer’s fairness concerns on the online channel mode strategy. Results show that the retailer’s fairness concerns only affect the wholesale price and online channel mode strategy. Without the retailer’s fairness concerns, the manufacturer direct selling mode is the best strategy for the manufacturer, which harms the retailer’s utility. With the retailer’s fairness concerns, the manufacturer may choose the manufacturer direct selling or e-commerce platform agency selling mode. When the fairness concern parameters meet a certain range, the e-commerce platform agency selling mode strategy is better for the supply chain members, which can solve the interest conflict between supply chain members. These research findings help dual-channel supply chain members understand how to choose the channel structure strategy to balance the supply chain members’ interests by considering fairness concerns.

Dual Channel Supply Chain

This paper studies the implication of channel discrepancy between the retail and direct channels in a dual-channel supply chain consisting of one common retailer and two manufacturers in which the manufacturers may have different market powers. Each manufacturer provides a substitutable product and opens an online channel to customers directly. We develop an analytical model to derive the optimal pricing strategies by using game theory and the backward induction method, and we examine related properties under three market power structures while considering channel discrepancy, including the Nash equilibrium, the Manufacturers leader Stackelberg, and the M1 leader Stackelberg models (denoted as the N, MS, and M1S models, respectively). Numerical simulations are examined to reveal and verify the effect of channel discrepancy on optimal prices, demands, and profits. We find that a higher level of channel discrepancy induces higher prices, demands, and profits for each member in both channels, while this kind of stimulating impact for the leader manufacturer who obtains a higher level of channel discrepancy will be more significant than it is for the other members in the three models. In addition, the profit of the supply chain in the N model is always higher than it is in the MS model, while it may be higher or lower than it is in the M1S model depending on the level of channel discrepancy.

Dual Channel Supply Chain

Capital constraint is a significant factor that mainly restricts the development of small- and medium-sized enterprises. This paper explores the channel strategy and pricing decision in a dual-channel supply chain, which consists of one supplier and one retailer. Adequate and inadequate capital constraints for the supplier are distinguished by determining whether open the retail channel to sell. The observations offer managerial insights into supply chain member. First, the results indicate that the capital constraint is a key factor affecting channel strategies and pricing decisions. With the increased value of capital constraint, the wholesale price of offline channel and the selling price of online channel firstly decrease and then remain constant. Second, the results demonstrate that, with capital constraint, the supplier pays more attention to consumers’ brand loyalty if it chooses to open the online channel only. Additionally, the price-sensitivity parameter has no effect on the strategy of opening only the offline channel. Moreover, when the channel competition is too intense, the supplier will choose to only open the online channel strategy and increase the online selling price if the capital is insufficient.
