  1. 1. Modeling pooling and perishable items in inventory systems

    Författare :Patrik Tydesjö; Produktionsekonomi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; two level; perishable items; Inventory control; newsboy model; emergency supply; stochastic; lateral transshipments; upstream customer demand.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is built on three papers considering different problems in inventory control. The first paper considers a two-location newsboy model with the possibility of making lateral transshipments when needed. Usually, when considering newsboy models it is assumed that all demand in a period occurs at once. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Understanding information sharing in supply chains - Identifying contingency factors that impact benefits of information sharing

    Författare :Joakim Kembro; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Logistics; Supply chain; Supply chain management; Information sharing; Information flow; Demand data; Contingency theory; Contextual factor;

    Sammanfattning : To increase our understanding of information sharing in supply chains the purposeof this licentiate was threefold: to review and analyze existing academic literature to describe and structure the research field; to empirically explore information sharing in a supply chain representing more than three tiers; and to explore contingency factors through literature reviews and empirical data collection. Thereby this licentiate thesis addresses several gaps identified in academic literature. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Information Sharing in Multi-Tier Supply Chains - Moving Beyond the Dyads

    Författare :Joakim Kembro; Teknisk logistik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; supply chain management; information sharing; collaboration; exploratory research; interdependence; contingency theory; networks; demand uncertainty; bullwhip effect;

    Sammanfattning : As international competition increased towards the end of last century, companies realized the importance of collaborating and sharing information with suppliers and customers to remain competitive. By sharing information such as forecasts of future demand with partners in the supply chain, it was possible to lower inventory holding costs and increase the service level to customers, and thereby increase the competitiveness of the involved companies.

  5. 4. Supply chain optimisation and market coordinated inventory control

    Författare :Reza Samadi; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Business administration; Företagsekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis examines serial supply chains in a decentralised, market-basedenvironment. It tries to explain the existing world of decentralized supplychains through a novel modelling approach. The actors in the chain are independentand interact through a “Cournot” game in inventory policies (orderlevels) and pricing (mark-ups). LÄS MER
