“…One third less than the whole body of respondents also reported that the uncertainty engendered by the market structure also frequently precipitate panicky buying by consumers, especially when demands are not met due to supply variability. This response was consistent with the reverse bullwhip effect reported in Jeong and Hong (2019) and Ojha et al (2019). The bullwhip effect is a phenomenon where outgoing orders to suppliers have higher variation than incoming orders from customers which distorts demand, and the distortion was amplified as it moves upstream (Sirikasemsuk and Luong, 2017).…”

This study investigates the nature and context-based peculiarities of sustainability practices related to the supply chain of oil servicing firms operating in the downstream sector of Nigerian oil and gas industry. The supply chain management practices of oil servicing firms are crucial to the functioning of the downstream sector of the oil and gas industry. However, the literature on their supply chain sustainability is scant and scattered. To fully explore this field; therefore, survey data were collected from key practitioners in the industry and analysed using descriptive statistics. The results show that the supply chain management practices of oil servicing companies relating to designing, producing, marketing, delivering, and supporting the products of their clients rarely factor in the requirements of sustainability practices. Accordingly, this study points out strategic interventions that could help in greening the supply chain practices of oil servicing companies operating in the downstream sector of the Nigerian oil and gas industry

“…Another factor that may positively influence supply chain agility and resilience is information sharing. When firms share operational information among departments and suppliers through integrated databases, they decrease the bullwhip effect, which refers to supply chain inefficiencies and inventory fluctuations due to changes in customer demands (Jeong & Hong, 2019;Soni et al, 2014). Firms may adopt smart systems to share information across their supply chain in real time and to meet current and predict future customers' demands seamlessly (Ralston & Blackhurst, 2020).…”

“…Ingham et al [7] and Chang et al [4] proved in their studies that mind-set and behavioral intention are directly proportional to each other, so if something is acceptable for customer's mindset then demand for that could be generated easily, which exactly happens in case of food delivery apps. Jeong and Hong [10] proved that information sharing rate plays important role in reducing bullwhip effect and also its impact at different level is different. We have used their idea in case of food delivery apps, to explain reduction in bullwhip effect in FDAs related supply chain.…”

Impact on bullwhip effect in food industry due to food delivery apps

Every supply chain whether services, durable goods or customer goods, is drifting more and more towards E-supply chain using Internet Technology (IT).Such supply chains make use of internet for selecting items, placing their orders and making payments too. Now days the E-supply chain for serving food items is getting very popular because of ease and facilities provided by Food Delivery Apps (FDAs) like Swiggy, Zomato and Uber Eats etc. Use of FDAs has caused variation in demand of food items and subsequently has caused an impact on bullwhip effect. Bullwhip effect is a supply chain phenomenon, which is defined as amplification of demand, as information in form of orders moves from lower echelon to higher echelon of supply chain. This paper attempts to explore the influence of E-supply chain on demand of food items and hence on the bullwhip effect, in food industry, in Indian context. In practice, E-supply chain causes price variations and results in poor forecasts and hence enhances bullwhip effect. But in present scenario, it has been demonstrated that the application of IT will contribute to the reduction of bullwhip effect in long run. Through qualitative and quantitative analysis, it has been proved that due to better information sharing the bullwhip effect has been reduced which generally increases in case of E-supply chain.
