Traditional Competition

With the economic globalization and the rapid development of high-technology, the traditional competition between enterprises has gradually evolved into the competition between the supply chains. It is described the structure models of supply chain and problems existing in the supply chain management, focuses on the comparison between the fourth party logistics and the third party logistics, based on the excellent management ability of the fourth party logistics and its ability to plan and design the supply chain. It is studied how to optimize supply chain through the fourth party logistics in the paper.

The paper establishes an inventory routing integrated model to economize the supply chain cost based on a supply chain composed of a single supplier, a third party logistics enterprise and multiple retailers. First of all, the paper acquires the optimal path arrangement for the third party logistics vehicles and the initial fixed partition through ant colony algorithm. Secondly, the paper calculates the total cost of the supply chain through the integral multiple sampling period and the fixed partition policies. Finally, the paper adjusts the third party logistics replenishment period for different partitions until the cost of supply chain comes to the minimum.

The green supply chain consisting of the third party logistics and retailer is as the background.Some factors are considered such as product green degree, carbon tax and consumer preferences. Two kinds of green supply chain game models are set up: Stackelberg game model dominated by the third party logistics,Stackelberg game model dominated by retailer. The game models are compared, and finally the numerical simulation has been carried on.Study shows that in the game models, with the improvement of product green degree, product price, logistics price, profit of the third party logistics, the profits of retailer and the supply chain will increase;With the increase of carbon tax, product price and logistics price also unceasingly increase.

Most traditional B2C E-commerce enterprises outsource their logistic to the third-party logistics and cooperate with flat channel distributors, which could lower their cost and reduce their risks. Taking Beijing 2688 E-commerce Co., LTD as example differently from the traditional enterprises, which establishes the procurement service model through cooperating with procurement services in the supply chain, this article analyzes the innovations on distribution and logistics of the case enterprise. Consequently the article proposes the key problems that the B2C E-commerce enterprises should pay attention to in the future.

A revenue coordination problem of supply chain based on lead time compression is discussed. The coordination problem involves in a supply chain consisted of a manufacturer, a third-party logistics and a vendor. The vendor implements a lot-partitioning supply model. The third-party logistics undertakes the delivery. The supply chain gains Lead time compression with lead time crashing. According to different cooperative modes, Stackelberg leader-follower game models are established to gain the optimal costs of the buyer, the vendor and the supply chain system. A decision principle is designed to compare the cost savings of the buyer, the vendor, the third-party logistics and the system. A best mode is singled out according to the decision principle.

Environmental sustainability has become a critical indicator in evaluations of the success and efficiency of supply chain management. In this study, we consider a two-echelon supply chain composed of two competing manufacturers, two retailers, and one third-party logistics firm. The first manufacturer produces a green product, while the second manufacturer produces a nongreen product. Each of the two retailers can sell only a green product, only a nongreen product, or both green and nongreen products. All products are initially stored by the third-party logistics firm and delivered to the retailers. This study investigates product pricing, the degree of greenness of the first manufacturer’s product, and carbon emission reduction as carried out by the third-party logistics firm. Using a three-stage Stackelberg game framework, we present the equilibrium strategy on pricing, the degree of greenness, and carbon emission reduction for five different distribution channel structures. One of our major findings is that competition between the two manufacturers has a positive influence on the profitability of the supply chain. We also find that it is desirable for each manufacturer to choose a cross-distribution channel for its products considering the sustainability and profitability of the supply chain.
