We study a dual-product dynamic pricing problem for remanufacturing system in which manufacturer makes new and remanufactured products competing certain market share. The socially environmental incentives, consisting of consumers' environmentally conscious demand governments' subsidy on products, are considered this study, encourage the to exert production effort toward friendly remanufacturing. Three models, namely, two-period, multi-period, infinite-period scenarios, formulated investigate...

Sustainability, which inspires the inclusive development of economy, environment and society, has received extensive attention from practical academic communities. Existing review literature on sustainable operations management (SOM) mainly focuses firms' with impact regulators consumers. However, comprehensive interactions among three agents (firms, consumers) playing increasingly important roles in are rarely investigated SOM. This study proposes a novel firm–regulator–consumer (FRC)...

Consumers' green-return behavior (CGRB) plays an increasingly crucial role in sustaining the environments practice. Little, however, is known about its impact on manufacturer's recycling decisions, such as channel selection and price. To contribute to practice literature, this study examines how a manufacturer makes decisions considering CGRB. More specifically, we develop quantity function reveal dependence of quantities CGRB model decision making self-recycling third-party channel. We...

AbstractProduct co-design which connects the firm and consumers to achieve value co-creation is widely applied in service-oriented manufacturing system (SOMS) improve service quality. One of key challenges practice understand how product affects performance SOMS under different business models. This study considers a optimises its effort decide whether participate selling leasing The results show that can always benefit from implementing co-design, even though do not some specific...

This paper studies a vendor-managed-inventory (VMI) supply chain where manufacturer, as vendor, procures type of nondeteriorating raw material to produce deteriorating product, and distribute it multiple retailers. The price the product offered by one retailer is also influenced prices other retailers because consumers can choose from any first papers that propose an integrated model study influence pricing deterioration on profit such VMI system. A hybrid approach combining genetic...

We look at a Bertrand model in which each firm may be unreliable with random yield, so the total quantity brought into market is uncertain. Under mild conditions, yield has unique Nash equilibrium, prices and production quantities are determined by firm's cost reliability. In case of symmetric firms, we compare competition Cournot numerical examples, find that yields lower less profits than competition. Furthermore, firms 0–1 yields, explicitly show competition, comparison between dependent...

This paper studies the production planning for green manufacturing to help manufacturers determine their emission allowances and trading strategy. Under government regulation scheme, manufacturer plans his with both an limitation in a finite horizon cap each period, trades permits through outside market. The thus prompts abatement technology innovation has strong motivations optimize cut down operation cost. We focus on this problem present mixed integer programming model objective of...

This paper extends the classical dynamic lot sizing model to case with carbon emission and multi-mode production. Production activities generate an cap is given for each period. The manufacturer equipped more than one mode If a less costly producing unit of product, it however yields emission. As consequence, maximum production quantity in period depends on selected cap. proposed this represents applications which emission-dependent constrained by government-imposed regulation. Furthermore,...
