“…Historically speaking, collaboration was first explored in supply chain by the focal company perspective. This may be illustrated by several papers that describe the natural downstream relationship existent between supplier/supply logistics and manufacturers, seeking the reduction of transaction costs, innovation, and other competitive advantages (Ferrell et al, 2019;Gunasekaran et al, 2015;Pomponi et al, 2015;Soosay and Hyland, 2015). Furthermore, collaboration was extended upstream as another strategy of reducing costs, including those from RL.…”

Business models have being designed, worldwide, to create sustainability competencies and in particular to incorporate reverse logistics, but Brazilian executives have not yet fully adhered to Law 12,305 on solid waste and reverse logistics. What would be the Brazilian executives' perception about reverse logistics competency and the support provided by a collaborative and IT competency? The objective of the paper is to investigate the effects of collaboration and IT competency in developing reverse logistics competency, as a strategy, and its consequences in economic and environmental performance. A survey was performed with 320 Brazilian supply chain executives and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling. The models demonstrated that collaboration has a direct positive influence on the development of reverse logistics competency, by executives' point of view. The moderation effect between collaboration and IT competency for reverse logistics was not confirmed, since it was adopted a strategic view of reverse logistics. Therefore, despite there was not a moderation effect, IT presented a lower direct effect on reverse logistics competency. Results reinforce that organizations that develop reverse logistics competency tend to improve their economic and environmental performances.

“…There is an abundance of opportunities for logistics service providers to collaborate, but there is little effective collaboration in practice, and the issues related to this gap remain largely unexplored by academic researchers. This paper offers a review of the existing research in horizontal collaboration, specifically highlighting efforts focussed in the areas of on-demand logistics, freight consolidation, facility sharing, incentives, case studies, and quantitative analyses [13].…”

Research background: The article describes the main trends in the globalization of economic processes, analyses the economic situation of world commodity markets, considers factors that influence the development of the transport system of Russia, defines the transport component in the cost of bulk cargo transported by Russian railways, presents a conceptual model of its formation for the purpose of improving tariff policy and competitiveness. A study of the dynamics of market conditions helps to identify factors that increase the efficiency of interaction between cargo-forming enterprises and organizations with the transport complex, develop and justify a system of measures to increase the efficiency of the transport system and ensure the sustainability of the national economy, as well as identify factors that contribute to globalization and the integration of production processes of transnational structures into the world economic system. Purpose of the article: To develop a methodological approach to assessing the impact of global commodity markets in the context of the globalization of economic processes on the development of the transport system of Russia. Methods: Analysis, classification, deduction, economic and mathematical modelling. Findings & Value added: The developed conceptual model for assessing the impact of global commodity markets in the context of the globalization of economic processes on the development of the country’s transport system contributes to the improvement of the tariff policy in the field of freight transportation, creates favourable conditions for increasing freight volumes for both transit and export-import cargoes.

“…More and more attention has been paid to horizontal collaboration in recent years, improving productivity, service level and market position [17], and reducing environmental pollution by reducing transportation distance [18]. Ferrell et al (2019) [19] made a detailed analysis of horizontal collaboration from the aspects of on-demand logistics, freight integration, facility sharing, incentive mechanism, etc. Zhang et al (2018) [20] designed a revenue-sharing contract to promote horizontal logistics collaboration in a decentralized environment.…”

Research on Supplier Collaboration of Daily Consumer Goods under Uncertainty of Supply and Demand

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This paper establishes the decentralized decision-making model of consumer goods, the active collaboration model of consumer goods suppliers, and the decentralized decision-making model of customized consumer goods. Through formula derivation and simulation, the benefit and influence differences of the three modes are compared. This paper studies the influence of supplier’s active collaboration on the supply and demand instability of consumer goods and discusses the ideal value of supply chain inventory control. In China’s modern circular economy, the inventory control of the consumer goods supply chain is unscientific and nonstandard. We discuss a new inventory control method and study the ideal value of supply chain inventory control. It helps reduce the inventory shortage loss caused by the uncertainty of daily consumer goods, improve the efficiency of the supply chain, enhance the liquidity of supply chain inventory to achieve the purpose of increasing economic value. It has reference value for the inventory control of consumer goods in other countries and regions. The results show that under certain conditions, the horizontal collaboration between suppliers can improve the completeness of consumer goods. The collaboration between suppliers can reduce the hidden dangers caused by the uncertainty of supply and demand and significantly reduce the total inventory cost of manufacturers and improve profits.
