Coordinative of one-shot cooperation in two-echelon supply chain

Abstract

A cooperation model for the balance of one-shot cooperation in the two-echelon supply chain was derived following the principal-agents mechanism with the factors influencing profit distribution being known based on of supply chain coordination model. The results of analysis showed that the effort level is lower when a noncooperative strategy is adopted than when a cooperative strategy is adopted. At the same time, the optimal effort level and distribution coefficient were got by using of the model.
