International Journal of Production Economics, 2014, vol. 157, issue C, 289-301

Abstract: A vendor managed system with the Consignment Stock agreement is a business practice where a buyer׳s inventory remains the property of the vendor until its withdrawal by the final customer demand. Such an agreement has shown to be a profitable stock management approach, especially when operating in uncertain environments where delivery lead times and/or market demand vary over time.
