Supply chain integration Many organizations are facing the necessity of integrating their supply chains with those of their suppliers and customers. Different perspectives such as information sharing, supply chain collaboration, and supply chain visibility have been used to understand and model supply chain integration. Researchers continue to explore fully the supply chain, highlighting its importance to organizational operations, organizational competitiveness, and the achievement of competitive advantage. In particular, numerous researchers have focused on supply chain collaboration, and the amount and type of data, information, and knowledge necessary to effect such collaboration [1] use a model to test the impact of variations of lead-time (longer versus shorter lead-times) upon fluctuations in demand, and thus, lead-time variability and its impact upon the bullwhip effect. Viswanathan, et al. [2] examined forecasting and planning among members of a multi-tier, or multiechelon, supply chain. They developed a simulation which indicated that members of a supply chain are best able to forecast demand when
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
