This book offers a systemic approach to the integration of marketing and supply chain management. It examines the strategic connections and disconnections between supply chain and operations management and marketing by focusing on the factors that constitute the extended marketing mix, including product, price, promotion, people, and processes. Key aspects of supply chain management are discussed in detail, including material handling, unit load, handling systems, and equipment, as well as warehousing and transportation, design, and packaging. The book then goes on to explore the marketing functions of intangible products (services), followed by a focus on B2B markets. Throughout, there is a strong emphasis on the optimization and maximization of the value chain through the development of a systems approach with a market-orientation. Pedagogy that translates theory to practice is embedded throughout, including theoretical mini-cases, chapter-by-chapter objectives, and summaries. Marketing and the Customer Value Chain will help advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students appreciate how front-end marketing can interface with the back-end operations of supply chain management.

Book Operations Management and Marketing Interface

Download or read book Operations Management and Marketing Interface written by Michelle M. H. Şeref and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: This dissertation focuses on supply chain management (SCM) decisions under various marketing strategies in the Operations Management (OM) / Marketing interface research area. It is composed of three primary research chapters. The first research chapter examines optimal inventory and pricing decisions under advance selling. Advance selling is a marketing strategy in which consumers have a chance to reserve a product in an advance sales period which occurs prior to the sales period. The retailer in this scenario must make an inventory order decision before the advance sales period begins to best meet demand in both the advance sales and consumption periods. I derive optimal inventory and pricing policies. The second research chapter focuses on optimal pricing and time-to-market decisions in a new product technology (NPD) environment. I consider two generations of a new technology product considering both price and diffusion effects on sales. I derive optimal pricing and time-to-market decisions for three different sales functions. The final research chapter considers the innovation speed of new technologies in a pricing and time-to-market model. I determine the optimal number of generations to offer of a new product in this scenario. All three research chapters contribute to the OM/Marketing research literature by solving business problems from a combined OM and Marketing perspective.

Book Managing the Supply Chain

Download or read book Managing the Supply Chain written by J.L. Gattorna and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1996-08-16 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text takes an updated view of the issues involved in supply chain management in today's business environment. In the 1990s, many businesses have gone through a number of changes, in particular through focusing on core activities and divesting themselves of many of the support functions traditionally carried out 'in house'. This development has led to the necessity for a broader concept of logistics that embraces the functions of both suppliers and customers into an integrated supply chain. The consequence of this is that the fundamental disciplines of logistics management must be reviewed and modified. Within this framework, the text addresses topics such as: - Value chain analysis - Activity based costing - Strategic partnerships and alliances - International operations - Optimisation - Best practice and benchmarking The book is ideal for students and practitioners in the field of logistics and supply chain management.

Book Four Essays on the Interface Between Marketing and Operations in Supply Chain Management

Download or read book Four Essays on the Interface Between Marketing and Operations in Supply Chain Management written by Pietro De Giovanni and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation consists of four essays that contribute in the investigation of the interface between marketing and operations in supply chain management (SCM). The main motivation behind this work relate to the evolution of SCM, which goes from a mere logistics function expanded across inter-organizational boudaries to a systematic coordination and integration of traditional business functions. This evolution pushes researchers and practitioners to think about SCM as a sophisticated and complex phenomenon that needs to be further explored. This dissertation provides four essays and each of them carries out specific motivations and addresses price issues. The first essay empirically investigates which business function, between marketing and operations, contributes the most to firm's corporate performance in SCM. On the other hand, the research provides prescriptive insights to managers on how to boost the effectiveness of SCM on corporate performance when focusing either on operations or on marketing activities while adopting specific managerial levers. The second essay draws a detailed map identifying the current research gaps to be eventually filled. It elaborates information from 108 papers published over the last thirty years and provides the ongoing research directions to be undertaken by future studies investigating the interface between marketing and operations in SCM. The third essay introduces a differential game of marketing and operations modeling both vertical coordination and horizontal SC competition. It highlights the interfaces between marketing and operational strategies in a context of symmetric competition. The main result concerns the effect of coordination on competition. When the SCs are not coordinated, competition is played only by price. Conversely, When the SCs are coordinated, competition is played on both pricing and advertising. Coordination intensifies SC competition and turns out to be economically ineffective. The last essay shows the advantages of integrating marketing and operational strategies in an atypical supply chain(e.g., closed-loop supplay chain) where economic, environmental and social issues occur simultaneously. The main result concerns the effectiveness of coordination and the additional knowledge supplied when having dynamic returns to better understand the interfaces between marketing and operations. Summarizing, this dissertation shows the evaluable research findings obtainable when a complex phenomenon like SCM is analyzed from different persepctives, such as marketing and operations. Future research in the domain of SCM should pay more attention to the interfaces and the integration between business function's strategies to provide realible, complete and prescriptive managerial insights and research findings.

Book Issues in Operations Management and Marketing Interface Research

Download or read book Issues in Operations Management and Marketing Interface Research written by Liwen Chen and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation studies important issues in supply chain management and marketing interface research: competition, product line design, and channel efficiency, at the presence of vertically differentiated products. Vertical differentiation as a means of price discrimination has been well-studied in both economics and marketing literature. However, less attention has been paid on how vertical differentiation has been operationalized. In this dissertation, we focus our study on two types of vertical differentiation: the one created by a product line which is produced by the same firm, and the one created by products from different firms. We especially are interested in the so-called private label products vs. the national brand products. Specifically, this dissertation explores how vertical differentiation can affect the interactions among the members of a supply chain in several different contexts. In the first piece of work, we use a game theoretic model to explore how the ability of a retailer to introduce a private label product affects its interaction with a manufacturer of a national brand. In the second essay, we are investigating how an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) will be affected by the entry of a competitor when there are strategic suppliers of a critical component. If these suppliers behave strategically, it is not clear that the entry of other players will necessarily be harmful to the incumbent. In the last work, we pay our attention to an emerging change happening in the industry: some retailers begin to sell their private labels through their competitors. We investigate the strategic role of a retailer selling her own private label products through another retailer. In summary, this dissertation illustrates how vertical differentiation play a crucial role in firms' supply chain as well as marketing strategies. Therefore, it is important for firms to recognize these strategic issues related to vertically differentiated products while making operations/marketing decisions.

Book excerpt: As a customer facing interface, customer-centric marketing orientation has gained prominence among academicians and practitioners, however, the success of a business transaction equally hinges on back office function, i.e., Supply Chain Management (SCM). Several businesses operated these functions as two different silos which ultimately hindered their overall business performance. This calls for an integrative thinking which combines the two (marketing and SCM) to constitute a synergistic concept, i.e., Demand Chain Management (DCM). Several researches so far conceptualized and empirically examined the issues related to marketing and SCM separately, and DCM, however, still remained a fancy idea to play with. Hence, in this paper, the authors explore the conceptual foundations of DCM in general. The paper elucidates the key concepts associated with demand chain management, followed by real-time cases of two apparel retailers, i.e., Shoppers Stop and Zara. The cases discuss the success stories of the two retailers, made possible by the effective execution of DCM. The study comprises the use of both interpretive paradigm and constructivist epistemology.
