Supply chain management through cascading
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Supply chain disruptions affect companies across all industries. For highly specific products, such as semiconductors, contingency planning is necessary in advance. This is aggravated by supply chain invisibility as a result of a multi-tier supply chain structure. In this research, we identify how supply chain performance can be improved in the presence of disruption risk and limited visibility. By analyzing stylized supply chain models, we identify possible reasons for the particular inefficiencies observed in semiconductor supply chains. We investigate the optimal capacity decisions of different players in a supply chain and the effects of multiple emergency sources. We then explore what type of contracts can be used to coordinate multi-tier supply chains. Further, we introduce the concept of incentive cascading and analyze whether cascading can be used to coordinate multi-tier supply chains.
