Download or read book Managing Channel Profit and Total Surplus in a Closed Loop Supply Chain Network written by S. Jena and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's government is interested in the product recovery program in order to encourage sustainability. The research develops four closed-loop supply chain models by considering different scenarios for the governmental subsidies and fees under price sensitive demand. Analytical results suggest that the government should provide subsidies to both manufacturer and collector in order to maximize channel profit and total surplus. Higher subsidies advocates manufacturer's intention to lean towards remanufacturing activities under given manufacturing and consumption fees scenarios. The sensitivity analysis reveals that the total surplus and channel profit increases as subsidies increase in all closed-loop supply chain models.

Download or read book Pricing Strategies in a Dual Channel Green Closed Loop Supply Chain Considering Incentivized Recycling and Circular Economy written by Behrooz Khorshidvand and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, we examine multi-level, dual-channel green closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) that incorporates circular economy (CE) principles. We focus on the implementation of an incentive-based recycling program for customers, and the investigation of various CLSC settings, such as centralized, decentralized, and collaborative, to determine the optimal equilibrium prices, greening levels, and advertising strategies. A unique contribution of this study is the simultaneous consideration of greening and incentivized recycling, which is a crucial aspect in today's environmental-conscious era. We formulate demand functions to incorporate price elasticity, greenness, and advertising under various strategies. The performance of these models is evaluated using multiple numerical examples and a case study from the clothing industry. Our findings indicate that a collaborative approach outperforms decentralization in terms of greening level and that this approach ensures the profitability of both members and the entire supply chain. Furthermore, our study suggests that centralization does not guarantee the maximum profitability of members, even though the entire chain attains its profit peak. This highlights the importance of considering the trade-offs between centralization and decentralization when designing CLSCs. We provide valuable insights for managers and policymakers to improve CLSC design and performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmentally conscious manufacturing and remanufacturing/recycling of end-of-life products are steadily growing in importance. The problem of managing the waste generated due to the disposal of many types of products has many aspects. The main driving forces for solving this growing problem are the rapid diminishment of raw material resources, decreasing space in landfills and increasing levels of pollution. The drivers associated with these forces are governmental regulations which require that the manufacturers take back the end-of-life products and customer perspectives on environmental issues. This research considers the problem of increasing levels of electronic and electrical equipments waste. The implementation of closed-loop supply chains can be beneficial both economically and ecologically for these problems. Relevant literature to understand various issues involved in the operation of reverse logistics systems and closed-loop supply chains is reviewed. Upon reviewing the issues involved in closed-loop supply chains, the problem is considered as an ill-structured problem. A problem structuring technique called Why-What's Stopping Analysis is used to analyze the problem from various perspectives. Also, since a closed-loop supply chain involves multiple objectives, two techniques for categorizing the objectives into fundamental and means objectives are presented: Fundamental Objective Hierarchy and Means Objective Network techniques, respectively. A Goal Program (GP) modeling approach is used to handle many of the objectives identified by the previously mentioned techniques. In this research a consolidated objective function is defined which includes all of the deviational variables considered in various goals defined in the model. The consolidated goal is to minimize the weighted sum of all deviational variables. A non preemptive goal programming approach has been used with goals being assigned different weights according to their priorities. The values of the deviational variables help the decision maker to see which of the different goals are satisfied with the existing values of parameters and which of the goals aren't. The goal program has been run with both uniform and variable demand values in all the periods. In the absence of real data, all the parameter values considered for this research have been assumed. The major contributions of the research are as follows: each member of the supply chain has its own individual objective and the related constraints which is a more realistic approach, the model considers multiple products, and the model considers operations at the product, subassembly, part, and material levels. All the above contributions make this research as the first approach of its kind which has never been attempted (based on literature reviewed) and the goal programming methodology used is also a well accepted approach among all the multi-objective programming approaches. Results show the effect of varying the priority/weight associated with a goal. Results also show that values of the deviational variables (positive or negative) help a decision maker to analyze the model. The goal programming approach is considered to be the most effective approach in terms of defining the mathematical model, analyzing the output, and modifying the model (if needed).
Download or read book Design of Closed Loop Supply Chains written by H. R. Krikke and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increased concern for the environment has lead to new techniques to design products and supply chains that are both economically and ecologically feasible. This paper deals with the product - and corresponding supply chain design for a refrigerator. Literature study shows that there are many models to support product design and logistics separately, but not in an integrated way. In our research we develop quantitative modelling to support an optimal design structure of a product, i.e. modularity, repairability, recyclability, as well as the optimal locations and goods flows allocation in the logistics system. Environmental impacts are measured by energy and waste. Economic costs are modelled as linear functions of volumes with a fixed set-up component for facilities. We apply this model using real life R&D data of a Japanese consumer electronics company. The model is run for different scenarios using different parameter settings such as centralised versus decentralised logistics, alternative product designs, varying return quality and quantity, and potential environmental legislation based on producer responsibility.
