Lock-in situations in supply chains / Ram Narasimhan in Journal of operations management, Vol. 27 N° 5 (Octobre 2009) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of operations management > Vol. 27 N° 5 (Octobre 2009) . - pp. 374–389 Titre : Lock-in situations in supply chains : A social exchange theoretic study of sourcing arrangements in buyer–supplier relationships Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ram Narasimhan, Auteur ; Anand Nair, Auteur ; David A. Griffith, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : pp. 374–389 Note générale : Génie Industriel Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Supply  chain  management  Social  exchange  theory  Economic  modeling  Behavioral  experiment  Power  Dependence  Justice Résumé : Social exchange theory is used to gain a better understanding of the relationship between a buyer and a supplier that is characterized by lock-in situations. We begin by reviewing the theoretical foundations of social exchange theory. Next, we use an illustrative multinational business example from a Danish Business Group to demonstrate the complexities of the lock-in situation. Conjectures related to lock-in behaviors are initially developed and then examined by means of a game-theoretic model. The analysis provides a basis for the development of propositions which are examined employing a behavioral experiment. The results indicate that the optimal pricing strategy of the supplier is to lower the price with increasing demand and the optimal investment intensity of the buyer decreases with increasing demand. The paper concludes by presenting directions for future research.

Relationship between just-in-time manufacturing practices and performance / Alan W. Mackelprang in Journal of operations management, Vol. 28 N° 4 (Juillet 2010) 

Public ISBD [article]  in Journal of operations management > Vol. 28 N° 4 (Juillet 2010) . - pp. 283–302 Titre : Relationship between just-in-time manufacturing practices and performance : A meta-analytic investigation Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Alan W. Mackelprang, Auteur ; Anand Nair, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 283–302 Note générale : Génie Industriel Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Just-in-time  practices  Performance  Meta-analysis  of  correlations  Theory  development Résumé : Just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing is among the most commonly researched topics in the area of operations management. This study examines the relationship between JIT manufacturing practices and performance outcomes by means of meta-analysis of correlations approach. Based on an in-depth analysis of literature spanning from 1992 to 2008, the results of this meta-analytic investigation support a positive relationship between JIT manufacturing practices and aggregate performance. However, the findings suggest that not all individual JIT practices are associated with all types of performance outcomes. This study highlights the JIT practices that have the greatest impact on individual performance outcomes and emphasizes the role of moderating factors in the relationship between JIT practices and performance. Theoretical and managerial implications are discussed and directions for future theory building in JIT are presented.
