报告内容: The study examines the information acquisition strategy of a dual-channel supply chain, in which a manufacturer sells a product through both a retailer and its direct channel. Either the manufacturer or the retailer can acquire demand information from a third-party marketing research company. We identify conditions under which neither firm will acquire demand information, even when the cost is negligible. We demonstrate that information acquisition can negatively impact not only the retailer, but also the entire supply chain, customers, and society as a whole. The study implies that firms with more accurate demand data must develop appropriate strategies for utilizing this information. 报告人简介: Dr. Jing Chen is the William A.
