2017年12月19日下午，美國Santa Clara University 李濤老師應邀在主樓418會議室舉行了一場以“A Responsive-Pricing Retailer Sourcing from Competing Suppliers Facing Disruptions”為題的學術講座，管理與經(jīng)濟學院眾多師生參加了本次學術交流活動。
供應商中斷相關性存在的原因很多，如產(chǎn)品和服務設計，地理位置接近度，共同供應商等等。實際上，在供應不確定性得到解決后，大多數(shù)零售商確實有能力調整產(chǎn)品價格。因此，研究一個響應定價零售商與相關供應商的采購問題變得非常重要。李老師研究了一個零售商面向兩個相互競爭的具有獨立或相關關系的兩個供應商的供應鏈問題。兩個供應商通過設定批發(fā)價格進行競爭，零售商通過設置交付時的零售價格對供應商做出響應。提出了三點主要結論：（1）降低生產(chǎn)成本是供應商進入市場的唯一途徑，在不降低成本的情況下提高可靠性只會使進入更加困難。（2）供應商可靠性的提高可能會不利于其自身。（3）高度的中斷相關性可能會使具有成本優(yōu)勢的供應商受益。最后，李老師回答了在場老師和同學的提問，聆聽本次講座的同學們紛紛表示深受啟發(fā)。
