Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate consumers’ variety perception for online grocery assortments and, more generally, to better understand consumers’ attitude toward digital assortments. In particular, this research examines the influence of the organization of products that results from assortment structure and display. Design/methodology/approach Starting from the observation that previous work on traditional assortments is not sufficient to understand consumers’ perceptions and attitudes, the paper adopts a hypothetico-deductive approach and develops four hypotheses. These hypotheses are tested using an experimental approach. Findings This research enables us to see that both attitude and variety perception are affected by the way products are organized on a website. Furthermore, contrary to what the literature on traditional assortments allows one to assume, the assortment corresponding to a more positive attitude is not perceived as being the more varied. As a result, our findings reconsider the link between variety perception and consumer assortment evaluation for digital assortments. Research limitations/implications The work is based on data collected for only one product category. It would be interesting to explore other categories also, to determine if the structure of the assortment and variety perception have stable effects. Practical implications The results inform retailers that they must carefully design the display of their digital assortments. If a retailer wants to enhance variety perception, the authors recommend using an assortment organized by brand, or presenting all the products together. If, instead, the goal is to encourage a positive attitude, the retailer should opt for assortments sorted by attribute or that present all products together. Originality/value This research adopts a new orientation on assortment perception and evaluation, considering the specificities involved in digitizing assortments. In addition, this research studies a real product category and puts respondents in experimental conditions close to reality.

Abstract:
Current tables of wood assortments for the most important tree species in B&H were made almost 50 years ago. There is an indication that real forest wood assortments are different than the one derived from assortment tables in-use, both in terms of quality and dimensions. In the meantime, from the creation of the existing tables until today, the standards of production of forest wood assortments have changed, so that the fact of inaccuracy of the existing assortment tables is unquestionable. This continually creates a variety of problems in the ongoing operations of forestry companies. The main aim of this paper is to create wood assortment tables whose assortment of wood products will correlate with the current market conditions. The research was conducted in the area of the Canton 10 in FB&H. A sample of 393 spruce trees was used as a database to produce this paper. The bucking of the sample trees was carried out in accordance with the valid norms and customer requirements with regards to the dimensions of forest wood products. Data processing was performed using methods of simple and multiple regressions, variance analysis as well as their combinations by the Generalized Linear Models method. Independent factors were breast diameter (DBH), technical quality class and the height of the trees. The share of wood assortments was determined through 10 different mathematical models, and it was found that all independent variables had a statistically significant influence on the dependent variables- volume of particular assortments or group of assortments. The share of logs is growing rapidly with the increase of tree diameter and decreases with decreasing of their technical quality. The influence of tree height primarily correlated with tree volume increase. Trees having better assortment quality, have tree heights higher than average for the same diameter class. The results of the research are presented in the form of tables as percentage share of wood assortment classes. The obtained results can be used as wood assortment tables in the research area.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze consumers’ reaction to assortment composition. Design/methodology/approach This study examines several scenarios: private label (PL)-only assortments; mixed assortments (PL and national brands (NBs)), and in the latter case both small and large assortments. Consumers’ reaction is measured through three dependent variables: store image, PL purchase intention and store-switching intentions. The authors ran a structural equation model (SEM) to analyze the influence of different explanatory aspects (product category involvement, attitude toward PL, value consciousness and assortment variety perception) on consumers’ reactions for each scenario. For this research, the authors carried out an online experiment with a sample of 1,400 individuals from a large panel of consumers. Findings Consumers react differently to different assortment compositions, giving importance to the differences between the three assortment models analyzed. The results show that the composition of the assortment, either according to its size or its structure, influences consumers’ response in a significant way. The results demonstrate that store image exclusively affects PL purchase intention in PL-only assortments. Only in mixed assortments is there a relationship between the assortment variety perception and store image, product category involvement and PL purchase intention, and both store image and value consciousness are related to store-switching intentions. Store-switching intentions decrease when consumers intend to purchase PL, but strictly in PL-only and large mixed assortments. Finally, value consciousness and variety perception are positively related to PL purchase intentions only in large mixed assortments. Research limitations/implications One limitation of this research is that it is restricted to the Spanish context. Second, the methodology is based on an online experiment, with the advantages and disadvantages that this entails. Third, the authors did not differentiate between high- and low-value PL which, if undertaken, could be of interest for observing how brand value affects the management of retail assortments. Finally, the authors did not differentiate regular buyers at these retail chains from those who are not. Practical implications The comparison between different assortment compositions helps the authors to draw some very interesting conclusions. The estimation of different consumers’ responses is ideal for providing retailers with recommendations on how to frame their assortment strategies. Thus, the main recommendation of this study for retailers is to look for a “balance” between PL and NBs, i.e., to offer mixed assortments. Originality/value Aside from mixed assortments, this study estimates the consequences of assortments that are exclusively PL. The authors proposed and deployed a SEM, so this paper contributes to the retailing field by including multiple dependent variables – store image, PL purchase intention and store-switching intentions. The authors conducted an online experiment containing “real” brands, which is another contribution as it enables consumers’ response to be estimated in a “real” environment.

Abstract:
Assortment structure in beech coppice stands was studied for the region of Crni vrh. Assortment structure was determined according to the standard (JUS) in two ecological units. The study results show that the assortment value structure significantly increases with the increase of tree diameter and that there are no statistically significant differences in assortment structure between the selected ecological units. The dependence of the assortment value structure on tree diameter can be represented by an exponential function. The value percentage of assortments made of stem wood in theoretical crosscutting depending on tree diameter has an increasing tendency, except for the wood for excelsior.

Abstract:
In this research, the authors merge an established methodology—hierarchical Bayesian modeling—and an existing utility model— Farquhar and Rao's (1976) balance model—to describe individual choices among assortments of multiattributed items. This approach facilitates addressing three managerial questions of direct importance: (1) Which assortment of a given size has the most customers for whom it is the preferred assortment (and what fraction of customers)? (2) Which products should be added to a given assortment to maximize the fraction of customers who can find their most preferred assortment? and (3) For a given assortment, what type of customer is likely to purchase it? The model is applied to assortment choices constructed from a set of eight popular magazines with five measured attributes: business, current events, human interest stories, sports, and technology. The analysis indicates that consumers are heterogeneous: Some customers are price sensitive and unresponsive to the magazine attributes, and others are sensitive to the magazine features but do not necessarily want more of them. In addition, the authors observe that many subjects do not prefer varied assortments; rather, consumers focus on purchasing magazines with high levels of the attribute they want.

Abstract:
Assortment structure in beech coppice stands was studied in the area of Boljevac. Assortment structure was evaluated according to the articles of the valid standard (JUS). The assortments represented in the assortment structure, based on the stemwood quality are: Logs for matches, sawlogs I II and III classes, mine timber, technical roundwood, pulpwood, wood for excelsior and fuelwood, I and II classes. The results of the analyses show that the value assortment structure (sum of the values of assortments produced from one tree) grows significantly with the increase of tree diameter and this dependence is presented by a degree function. The value percentage of logs for matches, sawlogs of the I and II classes, technical roundwood, mine timber, fuelwood and pulpwood, grows with the increase of the tree diameter. The occurrence of better quality logs (sawlogs) in these stands, in contrast to the beech coppice stand in the area of Crni Vrh results from the more favourable diameter structure. There are no statistically significant differences between the value assortment structure on the established sample plot series within the same locality, consequently the data ere united. Because of the differences in stand age, the data are not unified for the localities, although there are no statistically significant differences between value assortment structure for diameter degrees represented in them. False heart (red heart) is one of very significant defects of beech wood, and its incidence, inter alia, depends on tree age. The low effect of this defect of wood resulted in a significant percentage of logs for matches. Along with the value assortment structure this paper also presents the percentage of assortments depending on tree diameter.

Abstract:
The authors investigate the impact of product assortments, along with convenience, prices, and feature advertising, on consumers’ grocery store choice decisions. Extending recent research on store choice, they add assortments as a predictor, specify a general structure for heterogeneity, and estimate store choice and category needs models simultaneously. Using household-level market basket data, the authors find that, in general, assortments are more important than retail prices in store choice decisions. They find that the number of brands offered in retail assortments has a positive effect on store choice for most households, while the number of stockkeeping units per brand, sizes per brand, and proportion of stockkeeping units that are unique to the store (a proxy for presence of private labels) have a negative effect on store choice for most households. They also find more heterogeneity in response to assortment than to either convenience or price. Therefore, optimal assortments depend on the particular preferences of a retailer's shoppers. Finally, the authors find a correlation in household-level responses to assortment and travel distance (r = .43), which suggests that the less important an assortment is to a consumer's store choices, the more the consumer values convenience, and vice versa.

Abstract:
We consider assortment optimization problems, where the choice process of a customer takes place in multiple stages. There is a finite number of stages. In each stage, we offer an assortment of products that does not overlap with the assortments offered in the earlier stages. If the customer makes a purchase within the offered assortment, then the customer leaves the system with the purchase. Otherwise, the customer proceeds to the next stage, where we offer another assortment. If the customer reaches the end of the last stage without a purchase, then the customer leaves the system without a purchase. The choice of the customer in each stage is governed by a multinomial logit model. The goal is to find an assortment to offer in each stage to maximize the expected revenue obtained from a customer. For this assortment optimization problem, it turns out that the union of the optimal assortments to offer in each stage is nested by revenue in the sense that this union includes a certain number of products with the largest revenues. However, it is still difficult to figure out the stage in which a certain product should be offered. In particular, the problem of finding an assortment to offer in each stage to maximize the expected revenue obtained from a customer is NP hard. We give a fully polynomial time approximation scheme for the problem when the number of stages is fixed.

The results of research on the production of raw timber assortments for the stands of poplar clones Robusta and I-214 in Slovakia are presented in this paper. Models of assortment yield tables were constructed, separately for each clone, in dependence on the yield class and stand age. The construction was based on the models of yield tables, stand assortment tables, models of external quality and damage to stems. Robusta clone produces by about 15–20% higher proportions of the highest quality assortments than I-214 clone. I-214 clone produces faster and higher proportions of average- and below-average quality assortments.

Abstract:
Using three recently fitted taper functions, this note evaluates the accuracy and precision of log volume assortment estimates for five major Saskatchewan timber species. All three functions showed similarly good performance for the five species examined. The results indicated that the magnitude of both absolute bias and standard error of estimate depended on the average volume of the particular log assortments; larger average volumes had greater bias and standard errors of estimate. The coefficients of variation were inversely related to average log assortment volume, with the smallest assortment volumes having the largest coefficients. This results from the high variation relative to those small averages. This also means that estimates of log volume assortments would always be less accurate than those of the entire merchantable stem. Key words: forest mensuaration, Saskatchewan, log volume estimation, stem taper functions

Abstract:
Assortment optimization, also called assortment planning, is the decision process of a retailer of choosing a limited number of products that are to be presented to customers in a show room or an equivalent environment. Assortment optimization has been a subject of active interest in an academic setting since the 1970s and with the emergence of electronic data processing it has become a major driver of success for retail companies. In this thesis, we consider a rather new subfield there of: dynamic assortment planning. Retailers with the ability to adapt quickly to demand observations can beat the market by adapting the assortment towards the products that turn out to sell best. This creates larger revenue and at the same time reduces the costs caused by idle inventory. Having only vague knowledge of the actual demand, the task becomes bifold and an exploration exploitation type trade off between learning about the demand and utilizing this knowledge towards profit maximization has to be faced. We develop various models and appropriate, close- to-optimal, heuristic decision policies in an apparel retailing context. In a first setting, we derive heuristic policies basing on Gittins indices for multi-armed bandit models and develop heuristic methods to apply them in a non- trivial knapsack type constraint situation. Extensive numerical testing demonstrates the outstanding performance strength of our policies and we are able to derive remarkably tight upper bounds to the non- tractable optimal solution. We then extend this model to account for substitution effects, which inflict a tremendous increase in complexity on the problem. ·With the use of stronger simplifications than before, we are still able to develop heuristic policies with active learning. Numerical studies indicate an improvement towards a myopic policy in a similar order as in the previous setting. We close this study by suggesting an improvement on a well- known heuristic method.

The recent developments in retail industry created a challenging environment for companies in the sector and their trade partners. Retailers' focus on recovering their financial results through eliminating unproductive inventory and reducing unnecessary complexity has led to an increased pressure on their suppliers. In order to adapt to the new market settings, a major manufacturer of consumer goods wanted to be able to look at its product portfolio through the perspective of its direct clients. This capability was established in form of a decision model which utilizes Point of Sales, operational, and financial data of the company's downstream partners to recommend assortment changes at item, category and cross-category levels, as well as to project results of these changes. The tool uses the input data and information on product variety to assess risk of lost sales and to quantify possible improvements in product availability, retailers' logistics costs, efficiency of their operations, utilization of supply chain assets, and-perhaps most importantly-their revenues and profits. The new decision model reinforced the manufacturer's competence to support objectives of clients while continuing to pursue its own goal of offering end-customers products which they need, trust and value.

Abstract:
The aim of this project was to optimize the assortment of Picadeli’s salad bar regarding research on health and climate, mainly according to the EAT Lancet reference diet and the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations (NNR) 2012. With special emphasis on chemical properties of compounds in wheat pasta, whether Picadeli should switch from refined wheat pasta to whole grain pasta for health reasons were evaluated. A theoretical representative salad bowl (RSB) were made, in proportions to sales of products in Europe, and compared to food group and nutrient quantitative ranges set by the EAT Lancet Commission and NNR. Analysis of the RSB showed that most food groups matched within EAT Lancet and NNR ranges. The poultry and pork content were too high in order to agree with EAT Lancet. The salt and fat content were too high, and the carbohydrate content was too low, in order to agree with NNR. The discrepancies between RSB and EAT Lancet respectively NNR were used to make final recommendations on how Picadeli could change the assortment in order to provide customers with a more sustainable choice of food regarding health and climate. Since total fiber content was sufficient in the RSB and the pasta in the Picadeli salad bar most likely contains retrograded starch, promoting decreased blood sugar response and other health benefits, the refined wheat pasta does not necessarily need to be replaced with whole grain in order to agree as a part of a healthy diet. Main recommendations included replacing substantial amounts of pork and poultry with plant based alternatives, decreasing salt content (regarding sodium chloride) and switching cheese to low fat or plant based cheese.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine and adjust as needed the Kang (1999) assortment planning model to fit the planning process of bridal retail buyers. Five buyers who are owners or managers of small, independent bridal retail businesses were selected purposively and participated in in-person interviews about their assortment planning practices. A model was developed for each company interviewed, depicting the order of the assortment planning steps as practiced by bridal retail buyers. The final models were confirmed with follow-up interviews. Findings from this study suggest that the assortment planning steps used by bridal retailers are similar to the steps used by womenâ s dress buyers, as found in Kangâ s (1999) study. Bridal buyers use the six steps proposed by Kang to be included in the assortment planning process, however the bridal buyersâ assortment plan is more intuitive, integrated, and loosely constructed than that of womenâ s dress buyers. Three following variables were considered for their affect on the bridal retail buyerâ s process: (a) product-specific factors, (b) company-specific factors, and (c) buyer characteristics. Within the factors, the characteristics of product type and organization size were thought to have the most effect on the process.

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sloan School of Management, 2005.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves [104]-108).
The main research question we explore in this dissertation is: How should a retailer modify its product assortment over time in order to maximize overall profits for a given selling season? Historically, long development, procurement, and production lead times have constrained fashion retailers to make supply and assortment decisions well in advance of the selling season, when only limited and uncertain demand information is available. As a result, many retailers are seemingly cursed with simultaneously missing sales for want of popular products, while having to use markdowns in order to sell the many unpopular products still accumulating in their stores. Recently however, a few innovative firms, such as Spain-based Zara, Mango and Japan-based World Co. (referred to as "Fast Fashion" retailers), have gone substantially further, implementing product development processes and supply chain architectures allowing them to make most product design and assortment decisions during the selling season. Remarkably, their higher flexibility and responsiveness is partly achieved through an increased reliance on more costly local production relative to the supply networks of more traditional retailers.
(cont.) At the operational level, leveraging the ability to introduce and test new products once the season has started motivates a new and important decision problem, which seems crucial to the success of these fast-fashion companies: given the constantly evolving demand information available, which products should be included in the assortment at each point in time? The problem just described seems challenging, in part because it relates to the classical trade-off known as exploration versus exploitation, usually represented via the multiarmed bandit problem. In this thesis we analyze the dynamic assortment problem under different sets of assumptions, including: (i) without lost sales; (ii) with lost sales but observable demand; (iii) with lost sales and censored information; and (iv) with time varying demand rates. In each case we formulate an appropriate model and suggest a (near-optimal) policy that can be implemented in practice, together with associated suboptimality bounds. We also study the incorporation of substitution effects and the extension of the models to a generic family of demand distributions. The common solution approach involves the Lagrangian relaxation and the decomposition of weakly coupled dynamic programs.
(cont.) The dissertation makes three contributions: (1) it is the first attempt in providing mathematical optimization models with near-optimal solutions for the dynamic assortment problem faced by a fast-fashion retailer; (2) our analysis contributes to the literature on the multiarmed bandit problem, in particular for its finite-horizon version, we derive a general closed-form dynamic index policy that performs remarkably well; and (3) the solution approach contributes to the emerging literature on duality in dynamic programming.

La industria de las telecomunicaciones está frecuentemente enfrentada a las decisiones de surtido: determinar qué productos ofrecer y en qué momento. La importancia de tales decisiones se observa particularmente al promocionar, de manera online, productos conformados por un plan y un equipo móvil. Actualmente el surtido se mantiene estático a lo largo de cada mes, independientemente de los cambios en las existencias, lo que aumenta la probabilidad de tener un quiebre de stock. Por otro lado, los productos se determinan en base a una cantidad limitada de combinaciones, denominada universo, ambos, productos promocionados y universo, son seleccionados haciendo uso del juicio de expertos. El objetivo del trabajo es determinar una estrategia de surtido óptima para las promociones de dichas combinaciones por medio de la maximización del ingreso, para la cual se adapta un modelo que calcula en base a una función de demanda y el stock disponible, qué productos ofrecer y en qué momento. Debido a la cantidad de combinaciones es necesario utilizar generación de columnas, logrando así, su factibilidad computacional. El modelo base solo se ejecuta al principio de la planificación, lo cual lo hace inflexible. Para incorporar adaptabilidad se utiliza un horizonte rodante y se penalizan los productos que tienen un menor stock remanente, haciendo posible agregar información reciente de las ventas al recalcular el modelo cada un cierto periodo de tiempo y mejorar la calidad del surtido a lo largo de la planificación. Para evaluar la metodología se crean tres estrategias: (Caso Base) representación de la forma actual de resolver el problema; (A) una estrategia que determina el surtido utilizando la metodología creada, pero considerando el universo definido por la empresa y (B) una estrategia que además de considerar la metodología propuesta, utiliza un universo conformado por todas las combinaciones posibles. Se destaca que la cantidad de ejecuciones también fue sujeta a evaluación, considerando el cambio en el ingreso y aumento en los tiempos de ejecución. La metodología se evaluó usando datos de una importante empresa de telecomunicaciones, en la cual existen dos tipos de productos: Portabilidad -productos de gama alta que son ofrecidos a clientes de la competencia y cumplen requisitos específicos- y Multimedia - productos ofrecidos a clientes que ya forman parte de la compañía o a aquellos clientes externos que no cumplen los requisitos de portabilidad-. Debido a los resultados prometedores de las 2 estrategias propuestas, se considera incluir una estrategia extra denominada Lista Ordenada, con el objetivo de comparar las propuestas que optimizan con una opción de implementación sencilla. Tal estrategia consiste en ofrecer los productos que tengan una mejor combinación de atractivo y rentabilidad. Los resultados reflejan que la mejor estrategia depende del nivel de stock, con respecto a Multimedia, se tiene más del nivel necesario y por ello se sugiere utilizar la Lista que aumenta el ingreso en un 46 %. Por su parte, Portabilidad no tiene el suficiente nivel de stock y por ello la mejor opción es la estrategia B, que mejora el ingreso en un 21 %.

Aligning the Transit Industry and Their Vendors in the Face of Increasing Cyber Risk: Recommendations for Identifying and Addressing Cybersecurity Challenges.

Abstract:
Public transit agencies in the United States depend on external vendors to help deliver and maintain many essential services and to provide critical technologies, from ticket purchases to scheduling to email management. While the integration of new, advanced technologies into the public transit industry brings important advancements to U.S. critical transportation infrastructure, the application of digital technologies also brings with it a new assortment of digital risks. Transit agencies of all sizes are finding themselves subject to cyber incidents—most notably ransomware attacks—like those experienced by larger, more prominent companies and critical infrastructure providers. The findings in this report focus on helping all parties involved improve in three key areas: cyber literacy and procurement practices, the lifecycle of technology vis-à-vis transit hardware, and the importance of embracing risk as a road to resiliency.

Full text
Abstract:
We study the interdependence of FX and Treasury Bonds (TES) markets in Colombia. To do this, we estimate a heteroskedasticity identified VAR model on the returns of the COP/USD exchange rate (TRM) and bond prices, as well as event-analysis models for return volatilities, number of quotes, quote volume, and bid/ask spreads. The data under analysis consists of 5-minute intraday bid/ask US dollar prices and bond quotes, for an assortment of bond species. For these species we also have the number of bid/ask quotes as well as their volume. We found, also, that the exchange rate conveys information to the TES market, but the opposite does not completely hold: A one percent COP depreciation leads to a persistent reduction of TES prices between 0.05% and 0.22%. However, a 1% TES price increase has a very small effect and not entirely significant on the exchange rate, i.e. a COP appreciation between 0.001% and 0.009%. Furthermore, TRM return volatility increases do not affect bond return volatility but its liquidity, i.e. the bid/ask quote number and volume. These results are coherent with the fact that the FX market more efficiently reflects the effect of shocks than the TES market, which may be due to its low liquidity and concentration on a specific habitat. These results have implications for the design of financial stability policies as well as for private portfolio design, rebalancing and hedging.
