TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that SCM is negatively associated with SME performance after controlling for self-selection bias, and discussed several explanations for the result, and proposed several hypotheses relevant to the performance effects of SCM on SMEs.

TL;DR: A model to study and analyze the benefit of coordinating supply chain inventories through the use of common replenishment epochs or time periods for a one-vendor, multi-buyer supply chain for a single product is proposed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the impact of logistics capability and logistics outsourcing on firm performance in an e-commerce market environment and found that the relationship between firm's logistics capability, logistics outsourcing and its performance was positively linked.
Abstract: Purpose – Effective and efficient supply chain management is critical to the success of firms engaging in e‐commerce. The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of logistics capability and logistics outsourcing on firm performance in an e‐commerce market environment.Design/methodology/approach – This research examines the relationship between firm's logistics capability, logistics outsourcing and its performance. Multiple‐item constructs are used to measure the strength of logistics capability and firm performance. The use of logistics outsourcing is represented by a dichotomous variable. Data obtained via a survey were analyzed to investigate relationships among constructs and various hypotheses were tested.Findings – Study results revealed logistics capability to be positively related to firm performance in the e‐commerce market. However, counter‐intuitively, logistics outsourcing and firm performance were not found to be positively linked. Further, the association between logistics capability a...

TL;DR: In this paper, the coordination of a supply chain with one manufacturer and two competing retailers after the production cost of the manufacturer was disrupted is studied, and the conditions under which the supply chain is coordinated and discuss how the cost disruption may affect the coordination mechanisms.
Abstract: This paper studies the coordination of a supply chain with one manufacturer and two competing retailers after the production cost of the manufacturer was disrupted. We consider two coordination mechanisms: an all-unit quantity discount and an incremental quantity discount. For each mechanism, we develop the conditions under which the supply chain is coordinated and discuss how the cost disruption may affect the coordination mechanisms. For the all-unit quantity discount scheme, we find that the manufacturer charges the lower-cost retailer for a lower unit wholesale price in order to induce him to order more products. If the costs of two retailers have a remarkable difference, then the all-unit quantity discount scheme cannot coordinate the supply chain with disruptions. While the cost disruption may affect the wholesale prices, order quantities as well as retail prices, it is optimal for the supply chain to keep the original coordination mechanism if the production cost change is sufficiently small. The model is also extended to the case with both cost and demand disruptions. The equilibrium strategies of the retailers are investigated when the manufacturer cannot timely react to the disruptions such that she has to keep the original mechanism. We illustrate the results by numerical examples.
