Retailer-Supplier Flexible Commitments Contracts: A Robust Optimization Approach
W propose the use of robust optimization (RO) as a powerful methodology for multiperiod stochastic operations management problems. In particular, we study a two-echelon multiperiod supply chain problem, known as the retailer-supplier flexible commitment (RSFC) problem with uncertain demand that is only known to reside in some uncertainty set. We adopt a min-max criterion, whereby the cost funct...

متن کاملPolicy Commitments in Relational Contracts
How should an organization choose policies to strengthen its relationships with employees and partners? We explore how biased policies arise in relational contracts using a flexible dynamic game between a principal and several agents with unrestricted vertical transfers and symmetric information. If relationships are publicly observed, then optimal policies are never biased– they are always cho...
متن کاملConsumption Commitments and Employment Contracts*
We examine an economy in which the cost of consuming some goods can be reduced by making commitments that reduce flexibility. We show that such consumption commitments can induce consumers with riskneutral underlying utility functions to be risk averse over small variations in income, but sometimes to seek risk over large variations. As a result, optimal employment contracts will smooth wages c...
متن کاملIntegrated planning for blood platelet production: a robust optimization approach
Perishability of blood products as well as uncertainty in demand amounts complicate the management of blood supply for blood centers. This paper addresses a mixed-integer linear programming model for blood platelets production planning while integrating the processes of blood collection as well as production/testing, inventory control and distribution. Whole blood-derived production methods for...
