Streamlining procurement processes is, on the face of things, one of the more obvious ways to reduce costs in the supply chain. By harnessing the power of cutting-edge e-procurement platforms, organisations can automate purchasing activities – reducing administrative costs and improving efficiency. S...
You can make a pretty good guess about how global optimization differs from its local counterpart. This optimization strategy looks at all of the areas of supply chain efficiency that need work and attempts to boost them at as little cost as possible. It may be impossible to cut costs across...
This paper proposes an efficiency-enhancing contract mechanism in a two-stage supply chain. The model includes a buyer (the Original Equipment Manufacturer or OEM) who relies on a seller (the supplier) for key components. The self-interested supplier creates a level of capacity before demand is...
In supply chain management, improving the efficiency of the overall supply chain is important. It has been found that sharing information between supply chain members can increase the efficiency of th HJ Ahn,SJ Park - DBLP 被引量: 44发表: 2003年 A multi-agent model for the reasoning of unce...

Supply chain cost management models remain short term and functionally focused. Urgent budget pressure is real, but a strategic, programmatic cost optimization approach, versus supply chain cost cutting, helps to avoid risks to supply chain cost efficiency. To optimize supply chain costs, it’s impo...
For that reason, cost-conscious companies have focused on monitoring and controlling manufacturing and supplier-related activities by means of manual/electronic control devices in order to enhance the efficiency in the supply chain management and logistics process. This paper presents a case study about...
Operational efficiency: Reduce waste and maximize productivity. Examples include investing in technology and automation, supply chain optimization, and employee training. Economies of scale: Produce larger volumes to allow you to negotiate better prices for raw materials and distribute fixed costs across ...
