Planned disruption and unintended consequences: Postponement by strategy vs. intervention in the U.S. beer supply chain

Research on Compensation Mechanism for Two-Stage Delayed Delivery Problems Based on Whole Vehicle Logistics

“…Subsequently, Bucklin [2] explained the important role of delay strategy in inventory positioning in the market channel, and Shapiro [3] conducted a theoretical study on delay strategy positioning from the perspective of logistics, and established the relevance of supply chain and delay strategy. Until the 1990s, some high-tech enterprises and automobile manufacturing enterprises gradually pay attention to the theory of delay strategy and form a scale theoretical system.Budiman and Rau [4][5] proposed a two-stage stochastic model of supply chain network combined with delay strategy in order to solve the uncertain demand of the customers, and proposed a mixed-integer model of green supply chain network considering the delay strategy, and this model can reduce the cost under strict environmental policies.Phares and Jr [6] intervened in the supply chain uncertainty of a beer company and explored how the delay strategy can benefit the beer supply chain.Zheng, Shi and Wu [7] et al explored the supply chain of standard and customized products in a manufacturer and retailer system with two ordering opportunities under the delay strategy. Weskamp [8] et al proposed to hedge supply chain risk with delay strategy and constructed a two-stage stochastic mixed integer linear programming model to determine the decision considering lead time, penalty cost of shortages; Jabbarzadeh, Haughton, and Pourmehdi [9] proposed a two-objective robust optimization model to reduce the supply chain cost and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which is used for integrated production and distribution planning in supply chains with delay strategies; Li, Wang and Cheng [10] developed an economic production quantity (EPQ)-based planned backordering model, which demonstrated that delay strategies can reduce the total average cost in some cases; Luo, Zhao and Song [11] pointed out the limitations and shortcomings of traditional delay strategies, and developed a model for service-oriented manufacturing environments.…”

“…In addition, Budiman and Rau [14]also proposed a mixed integer model of green supply chain network considering the delay strategy, so as to reduce the cost under strict environmental policies. Phares and Jr [15] intervened in the uncertainty of the supply chain of beer enterprises and explored how the delay strategy could benefit the beer supply chain . In the above analysis, the literature on delay compensation has two shortcomings: 1) the computational complexity of the pricing problem involved in the above literature is high, and the constraints are difficult to determine; 2) the above literature does not propose a specific compensation mechanism, and the reliability of the decision-making results can not be guaranteed.…”

The contingent effect of supply chain strategies on the relationship between supply chain integration and operational performance in manufacturing context

“…Previous studies usually classify SCSs to efficient vs responsive strategies according to demand uncertainty. However, the classification of SCSs should consider supply uncertainties alongside with demand uncertainties to better serve the specific needs of the final customer (Phares and Richey, 2021).…”
