| Abstract: | Information flow is incorporated btw. a supplier and retailer in a 2-echelon model that captures the capacitated setting of a typical supply chain. Three situations are considered. Study of three models enables one to understand the relationships btw. capacity, inventory, and information at the supplier level, as well as how they are affected by the retailer's (S - s) values and end-item demand distribution. The savings at the supplier due to information flow are estimated and when information is most beneficial is studied. |
