Supply chain disruption management in a two-echelon channel with asymmetric information

Coordination mechanisms are proposed in a supply chain consisting of one supplier and one retailer with supplier's cost asymmetric information in a normal scenario firstly. After supplier's cost disruption has occurred, coordination mechanisms for revising production plan in a irregular scenario are developed. Impacts of supplier's cost disruption on retail price, wholesale price and retailer's as well as supplier's expected profits are investigated through analytical and numerical analyses.
