摘要：
Manufacturing, retail, and healthcare organizations are improving their distribution supply chains by implementing order commitment - an agreement under which some delivery quantities are fixed a priori while some others are freely chosen by the recipients. We show that these strategies are effective whenever the supplier's cost is at least 29.3% of the total system cost. This result is robust to supply chain operating structure, and savings increase as the supplier's share of the total system cost increases. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
