The Role of Surge Pricing on a Service Platform with Self-Scheduling Capacity (2017, background): “In a supply chain setting, “wages” are used to align ﬁrm and provider incentives, though a wage-only (traditionally referred to as price-only) contract cannot fully coordinate the system (Perakis and Roels (2007), Cachon (2003)).”
Supplier Encroachment Under Asymmetric Information (2014, background): “Linear pricing schemes are widely used in practice and also are commonly assumed in the literature that studies channel structure (e.g., McGuire and Staelin 1983, Lariviere and Porteus 2001, Cachon 2003, Arya et al. 2007).”
Sharing Responsibility for Product Recovery Across the Supply Chain (2012, methodology): “We solve for the manufacturer’s and supplier’s decisions by backward induction (e.g., Cachon 2003, Tsay et al. 1999).”
An Economic Perspective on Transfer Pricing (2006, positive): “21 See Cachon (2003). BÄockem and Schiller (2005) present a case where an option-contract-like mechanism is used in a supply chain.”
Competitive stocking and coordination in a multiple-channel distribution system (2005, background): “Here we provide a review of the works that we believe are most closely related to ours, and refer the reader to Cachon (2003) for a recent overview of this vast literature.”
Item‐Level RFID in the Retail Supply Chain (2007, background): “Cachon (2003) gives a comprehensive overview of such incentive problems and coordination approaches.”
Game Theory in Supply Chain Analysis (2004, background): “See [ 17 ] for a comprehensive survey and taxonomy.”
Product Design and Supply Chain Coordination Under Extended Producer Responsibility (2009, background): “As has been argued in the supply chain literature, coordination can be achieved among entities in a supply chain through properly structured contracts (see Cachon, 2003 for a review).”
The newsvendor problem: Review and directions for future research (2011, background): “They used the same utility function to describe the loss-aversion preference as in Schweitzer and Cachon [42] but assumed a positive shortage cost.”
Learning by Doing in the Newsvendor Problem: A Laboratory Investigation of the Role of Experience and Feedback (2008, background): “The newsvendor problem is a fundamental building block for models of inventory management in the face of stochastic demand (Porteus 1990), and at a broader level for models of supply chain systems (Cachon 2002).”
A Trade Credit Model with Asymmetric Competing Retailers (2018, background): “The assumptions on demand can be divided into two categories: the demand splitting rule (Lippman and McCardle 1997, Netessine and Rudi 2003) and the proportional demand allocation rule (Cachon 2003, Wang and Gerchak 2001).”
Research opportunities in purchasing and supply management (2012, neutral): “…and control of processes which enable joint value creation and sharing While the importance of incentive design to ensure cooperation for joint value creation in supply chains has been highlighted in the literature (e.g. Cachon 2003), little attention has been paid to the joint sharing of benefits.”
Trust and Information Sharing in Supply Chains (2012, background): “Since the manufacturer can always share profits with the retailer (e.g., via transfer payment, see Lee and Whang 1999 and Cachon 2003), the salesperson that generates a higher total supply chain profit is likely to be the most beneficial to both the manufacturer and the retailer.”
Coordination in multi-echelon supply chain under supply and demand uncertainty (2012, background): “Cachon (2003) provides a detailed review of this literature.”
