Abstract:
This paper explores the logistics strategy selection of a manufacturer that uses two sales channels (resale and agency channels) to sell the same product through an E-commerce platform. The agency channel offers two logistic strategies, low-quality logistics services provided by third-party enterprises (Strategy N) and high-quality logistics services provided by the platform (Strategy S). When the manufacturer opts for Strategy S, a portion of the market share of the resale channel shifts to the agency channel, which results in the platform logistics effect. We developed a game-theoretic model

Abstract:
In the last decade, the emergence of global supply chain has reshaped the role of logistics service in both scale and scope in the automotive industry. Outsourcing logistics functions have become a compelling choice of many automotive companies. In the automotive industry these days, many companies are looking at strategic advantages in logistics to reduce costs. For some, it is a near life-or-death proposition for their survival. The battle zone for these companies is in reducing inventory and supply chain costs at each transaction and for their customers in the field, on the ground and in th

Abstract:
Cooperative advertising programs are usually provided by manufacturers to stimulate retailers investing more in local advertising to increase the sales of their products or services. While previous literature on cooperative advertising mainly focuses on a “single-manufacturer single-retailer” framework, the decision-making framework with “multiple-manufacturer single-retailer” becomes more realistic because of the increasing power of retailers as well as the increased competition among the manufacturers. In view of this, in this paper we investigate the cooperative advertising program in a “tw

In order to meet the needs of different customer segments, manufacturers use multiple distribution channels. This paper will examine two of the most common types of multi-channel structures. Under Structure 1, a supply chain includes a manufacturer, its online store and its own retail store, like GAP's business model. A profit maximization model is used to obtain optimal strategies in terms of optimal retail price and level of value-added services provided by manufacturer-owned retailer. Under Structure 2, a supply chain includes a manufacturer, its online store and an independent retail store

An effective warranty policy is not only an obligation for the manufacturer or vendor, but it also enhances the willingness of customers to purchase from them in the future. To earn more customers and increase sales, manufacturers or vendors should be inclined to prolong the service life of their products as an effort to gain more customers. Nevertheless, manufacturers or vendors will not provide a boundless warranty in order to dominate the market, since the related warranty costs will eventually exceed the profits in the end.

Among these emergent industrial services, performance-based services represent an opportunity for equipment manufacturers to transform their service offerings towards more relational and customer-oriented services.

Abstract:
This article provides an analysis of the impact of the abolition of individual resale price maintenance (irpm) in 1964 on the relationships between retailers and suppliers and, wider, on defining features of the UK economic structure. It describes the role of irpm prior to 1964 in a complex competitive environment that existed across a range of goods and services. A key feature of this environment was the influence manufacturers had over retail margins and pricing. It shows how the 1964 Resale Price Act both unraveled this system and provided the legal prerequisite of today’s dominance by larg

In view of the financing dilemma of green innovation of manufacturers in the e-commerce supply chain, we build a strategy evolution game model between manufacturers and e-commerce platforms and describe the dynamic evolution law of manufacturers choosing green innovation and platforms choosing green financing. Combined with numerical simulation, the factors affecting green innovation and green financing decisions are analyzed and strategic suggestions are put forward. The conclusions are as follows: (1) There is a unique evolutionary equilibrium strategy for dynamic behavioral decision-making

Considering the impact of the battery leasing service and battery swapping service on the vehicle supply chain operation mode, a vehicle supply chain with a vehicle manufacturer and a battery asset company is investigated. Decision models are formulated in three cases: (a) both battery leasing and battery swapping services are provided by the vehicle manufacturer; (b) both services are provided by the battery asset company; (c) the battery swapping service is provided by the vehicle manufacturer and the battery leasing service by the battery asset company.

Integrating remote hearing aid adjustments into audiological care has significantly transformed hearing healthcare delivery, particularly in enhancing accessibility and convenience for patients. This transition accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic, has allowed audiologists to remotely program hearing aids, manage tinnitus, and conduct follow-up consultations, reducing the need for in-person visits. Despite the growing acceptance of teleaudiology, challenges still need to be addressed in understanding and implementing remote care across different hearing aid manufacturers. This review provi

Government’s green subsidy and retailer’s fairness concerns have great implications for enterprise’s operation strategy in the green supply chain (GSC). With the continuous deepening of retailer’s participation in supply chain management, the green services they provided by retailer have become a crucial role in promoting the terminal sales of green products. To further research the government subsidies and retailer’s fairness concerns on the optimal decisions of product pricing, green R&D, and service level, we construct four two-stage GSC models: no subsidy and fairness concerns, subsidi

Purpose Manufacturers find bottom of the pyramid (BOP) markets challenging to serve due to low margins and highly localized needs. As such, residents in BOP markets often go without products commonly available in developed countries. Going without medical equipment may negatively affect healthcare services. This study develops a supply chain design strategy that supports the production of medical equipment by preserving variety flexibility at low volumes that stands to create new market opportunities for manufacturers and improve healthcare for residents in BOP markets.

AbstractServitization in developed countries is an increasingly popular strategy for building a competitive advantage. Its level varies depending on different market conditions as well as between sectors. The Polish economy is that of a developed country, but still, its level of development is slightly lower compared to the most developed countries. The current state of knowledge indicates that the machinery manufacturing sector usually characterises the highest level of servitization in comparison to other manufacturing sectors.

To meet the different needs of consumers in an E-commerce market environment, more and more enterprises have launched extended warranty services, which can reduce consumer risk and stimulate market demand in E-commerce supply chains. However, knowing who will launch the extended warranty services has become particularly important. To propose an optimal strategy of the extended warranty service provider and seller, three game models are constructed in an E-commerce supply chain consisting of a manufacturer and an E-commerce platform.

This study examines the differences in business insolvency between the information and communication technology (ICT) industry and the automobile industry, as well as their sub-categories of manufacturers and service providers, based on survival analysis. The results indicate that, unlike the technology diffusion model, the survival analysis provided clearer explanations on the differences in business solvency among ICT, automobile, manufacturing, and service firms. We found that insolvency of ICT firms is influenced by the short life cycle of the products/services that these firms provide to
