Our model accommodates customers who are heterogeneous in their number of friends (degree) and their proclivity for social comparisons (conspicuity). Firms with information on either (or both) of these characteristics can use it to make the product selectively available and to personalize prices. We find that firms’ preferred customers are low degree and high conspicuity, with the conspicuity threshold nondecreasing in degree. Interestingly, although both degree and conspicuity levels are relevant to curating the desired customer base, we find that firms do not need conspicuity information to do so; its absence can be substituted by incentivizing customers to self-select. There is no such recourse for the absence of degree information. As a result, degree information is typically more valuable than conspicuity information. Our analysis suggests that there are two canonical categories of social information—less valuable “consonant” information on characteristics where firm and customer preferences are aligned and more valuable “competing” information where preferences are misaligned. Customers can be incentivized to act in a way that their actions are a perfect substitute for consonant information, making it less valuable.

In the presence of spillover effect, we discuss how the chosen retail channel affects the manufacturer’s profit, online retailer’s profit, and consumer surplus. Interestingly, our results reveal that there is an asymmetric effect of the online-to-store channel on the manufacturer and the retailer under spillover effect. Specifically, the retailer is better off adding the online-to-store channel if the spillover intensity is in the intermediate range, while the manufacturer is better off adding the channel if the spillover intensity is relatively high or low. Consequently, a win-win outcome for the retailer and the manufacturer will occur when adding the online-to-store channel under medium spillover intensity. We also show that the impact of online-to-store channel's introduction on consumer surplus depends on the spillover intensity. In particular, when the spillover intensity is at a moderate level, the consumer will gain more utility from buying through the online-to-store channel. Otherwise, the consumer will suffer a loss due to the online disutility cost. Overall, there is a win-win-win outcome for all channel members when the spillover intensity is not markedly positive or negative. Our findings offer valuable insights for managers and scholars by providing a better understanding of the joint functionality of online-to-store channel and spillover effect in retail channel management.","PeriodicalId":330843,"journal":{"name":"PROD: Analytical (Supply) (Topic)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121291598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And supply chain management has been defined as “design, planning, execution, control and monitoring of supply chain activities with the objective of creating net value, building a competitive infrastructure, leveraging worldwide logistics, synchronizing supply with demand and measuring performance globally.”1 But supply chain network shows a bigger picture which involves interactions among organizations. The complexity is also increased as well in supply chain networks. In order to better manage supply chain, complexity drivers need to be defined and the impacts need to be analyzed.2 According to Serdarasan (2013)“ Studies on supply chain complexity mainly use the static and dynamic complexity distinction. While static complexity describes the structure of the supply chain, the number and the variety of its components and strengths of interactions between these; the dynamic complexity represents the uncertainty in the supply chain and involves the aspects of time and randomness.”3 In this paper I will mainly focus on defining the factors that lead to the complexity and analyzing their impact on the network structure. In order to better discovering the factors, I will compare and analyze actual company cases in two industries in which structures and characteristics differ the most in diverse aspects—Automotive and Fast-fashion industries.","PeriodicalId":330843,"journal":{"name":"PROD: Analytical (Supply) (Topic)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125785574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When a substance of concern is identified (e.g., bisphenol-A (BPA) in reusable water bottles), manufacturers face difficult trade-offs in deciding whether to proactively replace the substance in their products or to defer replacement and wait to see if regulation occurs. In this paper, we model a vertically differentiated market consisting of a high-end manufacturer and a low-end manufacturer, both of whom sell a product that contains a substance of concern. We examine when opportunities exist for the manufacturers to avoid competing to replace the substance, and instead, share the cost to remove it from their products. Our analysis investigates how market dynamics (competition and consumer preferences) and external factors (replacement costs and regulatory uncertainty) influence manufacturers' collaboration, replacement, and pricing decisions. We find that when the manufacturers compete to replace a substance of concern, the high-end manufacturer can use the identification of the substance to maintain, and in some cases, increase his control of the market. Collaboration is possible when either the high-end manufacturer can use collaboration to further control the market or the low-end manufacturer can use it to better position himself in the market. There are, however, potential trade-offs in consumer benefit to the manufacturers working together. For example, although collaboration reduces consumers' exposure to the substance of concern, it can decrease consumer surplus when the replacement substance is particularly costly.","PeriodicalId":330843,"journal":{"name":"PROD: Analytical (Supply) (Topic)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114151810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Producers at the supply markets are aware of the quality of their products, whereas consumers, located at the demand markets, are aware only of the average quality of the products that are shipped to their demand markets. Minimum quality standards are also captured in order to assess the impacts of such policy interventions. We establish qualitative results, in the form of existence, uniqueness, and stability analysis. An algorithm is proposed, along with a convergence proof. It is then utilized to compute solutions to a spectrum of spatial price equilibrium numerical examples in order to explore the impacts of information asymmetry under different scenarios. The numerical examples, which are of quite general functional forms, reveal that, as the number of supply markets increases, the “anonymizing” effect leads to a decrease in the average quality. On the other hand, as the number of demand markets increases, the pressure to improve quality increases, and the average quality increases. Finally, we demonstrate that, after the imposition of minimum quality standards, the average quality at the demand markets increases and the prices also increase.","PeriodicalId":330843,"journal":{"name":"PROD: Analytical (Supply) (Topic)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116976464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
