Abstract

Increasing dynamics are making efficient management of the supply chain difficult. The bullwhip effect is known to be a major source of this inefficiency so there is a considerable amount of literature analyzing its causes. However, the reported outcomes are not comparable because they consider different business environments and make different assumptions regarding operative processes. We propose a SCOR (Supply-Chain Operations Reference-model)-based framework for modeling and analyzing the bullwhip effect so that practitioners can evaluate the performance of their supply chain, and establish a strategy to improve its performance.
