Supply Disruptions, Asymmetric Information and a Backup Production Option

Abstract: We study a manufacturer that faces a supplier privileged with private information about supply disruptions. We investigate how risk-management strategies of the manufacturer change, and examine whether risk-management tools are more, or less, valuable, in the presence of such asymmetric information. We model a supply chain with one manufacturer and one supplier, in which the supplier's reliability is either high or low and is the supplier's private information. Upon disruption the supplier chooses between payi… Show more

“…Yang et al (2009) had grouped the tools for managing supply chain risk into four main themes: multi-sourcing (e.g., Anupindi and Akella, 1993;Babich et al, 2005Babich et al, , 2007, alternative supply sources and backup production (e.g., Serel et al, 2001;Kouvelis and Milner, 2002), flexibility (e.g., Van Mieghem, 2003;Tomlin and Wang, 2005) and supplier selection (e.g., Deng and Elmaghraby, 2005). On the other hand, Microsoft and Arthur Anderson developed a supply risk assessment process-Comprehensive Outsource Risk Evaluation (CORE) system in which Risk is analyzed ''objectively''.…”

“…This example illustrates that, as supply chains are extended by outsourcing and stretched by globalization, disruption risks and lack of visibility into a supplier's status can both worsen (Yang et al, 2009). It is very hard for firms to manage the visibility of a long or ''deep'' supply chain which has a low traceability of material origin.…”
