bullwhip effect on the supply chain.

Post by "Robert Rozec" »

Dear System Dynamics Community,

Professor to the university of Nantes (France), Logistics Department (IUT of Saint-Nazaire) I work on the phenomenon of bullwhip effect on the supply chain.

Someone would be able :
- to counsel me the literature adapted to this topic
- to mail me the model that he would have constructed (I use Powersim)

Thank you in advance.

Best regards

Lee, Padmanabhan, and Whang have an interesting article in Management Science
/Vol.43, No.4, April 1997 (pp. 546-548) entitled "Information Distortion in a
Supply Chain: The Bullwhip Effect" that you may find helpful.

Best regards,

For a nice complement to the SD interpretation of amplification of
disturbances up a supply chain, see Steve Graves article in the first
issue of the new M&SOM journal:

Stephen C. Graves, "A Single-Item Inventory Model for a Nonstationary
Demand Process." Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, Vol. 1 No.
1, 1999.
