Hello Team,

if lead times could be reduced—via, for example, localized production, improved information systems and forecast updating, multichannel production and emergency supply sources, and expedited shipping methods—allowing for a rapid response to updated demand information closer to (or during) the selling season, supply and demand could be more closely matched, reducing or eliminating costly shortages and wasteful overproduction. Such techniques to mitigate demand uncertainty (which we refer to hereafter as quick response systems) can be costly because of information technology (IT) expenses and expedited production or transportation costs, but are known to provide significant value to firms by better matching supply with uncertain demand.

The late production opportunity is close enough to the start of the selling season that market size is known perfectly.1 Production during the early opportunity incurs a unit cost c1, whereas production during the late opportunity incurs a higher unit cost c2 " c1 because of, e.g., expedited production and shipping costs. Production at either point in time is assumed to be uncapacitated, and production during the late opportunity is assumed to have a short enough lead time that all units arrive before the start of the selling season.

Regards,

 

Saiyid
