Effects of information transparency and cooperation on supply chain performance: a simulation study

摘要: This research explores the effect of information transparency and cooperation among front nodes supply chains. Although published works in chain (SC) domain underline need for competitiveness firms, majority these are conceptual or empirical. As such, requires fresh effort towards analytical simulation based validation. In present work, is used as methodology. The platform developed ARENA®, which on language SIMAN. It has capability to model multi-product, multi-echelon Cooperation depicted form demand pooling accelerated delivery consignments from cooperating SC nodes, when stock-out contingency occurs at a particular node. modelling also effects full, partial zero level performance. results suggest that initiative...
