Stephen M. Disney and Marc R. Lambrecht

Foundations and Trends(R) in Technology, Information and Operations Management, 2008, vol. 2, issue 1, 1-80

Abstract: In this review we focus on supply coordination and use the bullwhip effect as the key example of supply chain inefficiency. We emphasize the managerial relevance of the bullwhip effect and the methodological issues so that both managers and researchers can benefit.
