Effective Production Planning for Fashion Goods with Uncertainty in Demand and Two Production Modes
具有两阶段生产模式的一类短生命周期产品的供应链协调

In this paper,we are concerned with the problem of quantity decision and production planning in a supply chain contract,which is composed of one manufacturer and one retailer to meet the random demand of a single product.Besides a first order before the sales season,the retailer will place the second order at the end of the selling period.These ordered products are produced in two production modes for different requirements.The first production mode is relatively cheap but needs a long lead time while the second is expensive but offers quick turnaround.Our analysis shows that the supply chain is expected to achieve the optimal profit while the manufacturer maximizes his own profit by produced more items than ordered in the first production mode.And with respect to the conditions that only one production modes is available,we find that more profit will be achieved if both modes are used together.
