Yet, RBC's vice-president of operations is worried in regards to the caliber and amount combination of the most recent tomato crop received from Greenfield Farms (GF).
Amount mixes and rBC's preferred quality differ significantly from the current crop. From the perspective of RBC, the problem is the best way to inspire the supplier to generate a harvest more in line with RBC's demands. Both firms in the B-to-B section of the supply chain make an effort to get a blend that would be beneficial, an effort that fails because of present conflicts of interest. The goal of rBC might be achieved by taking a supply chain strategy and altering the delivery contract by an appropriate pricing scheme. Calibrate and the task will be to identify a pricing scheme that can realize the supply chain's maximum performance and result in a stable truly win-win option. Developing and solving a linear optimization model carries out the derivation of the supply chain optimal costs.
