Optimal pricing strategy: How to sell to strategic consumers?

Meng Wu et al.

Summary: This research explores the impact of consumer's strategic buying behavior on pricing strategy and identifies the optimal pricing strategy through comparing profits. High-low pricing is only suitable when the offered markdown discount is relatively small. If strategic consumers are few and require a large discount, retailers can ignore strategic buying behavior and sell products at a fixed price.

An inventory model with discounts for omnichannel retailers of slow moving items

Adriana F. Gabor et al.

Summary: This paper studies an inventory model for an omnichannel retailer and proposes an approximation method for calculating average inventory costs. It also presents an optimization procedure for multiple stores. Extensive numerical experiments show the accuracy of the approximations and demonstrate the cost reduction benefits of adopting the discount policy.

Integrating Anticipative Replenishment Allocation with Reactive Fulfillment for Online Retailing Using Robust Optimization

Yun Fong Lim et al.

Summary: The study proposes a method that effectively reduces operating costs for online retailers by optimizing the replenishment, allocation, and fulfillment decisions to minimize total operating costs. Experimental results show that the approach outperforms existing methods and performs within 7% of a benchmark with perfect information. Real data study suggests that the method can significantly reduce the retailer's cumulative cost.

On a Deterministic Approximation of Inventory Systems with Sequential Service-Level Constraints

Lai Wei et al.

Summary: In this paper, the authors study two simplified inventory models with independent demands, positive lead times, and sequential probabilistic service-level constraints, finding that a natural order-up-to policy is asymptotically optimal for both the backorder and lost-sales systems in settings with high service-level requirements. They show that simple heuristic policies can be nearly optimal and that deterministic approximations can be used effectively for solving complex inventory problems in practice.

Heuristics for setting reorder levels in periodic review inventory systems with an aggregate service constraint

Karel van Donselaar et al.

Summary: Inventory managers are responsible for balancing inventory holding costs and customer service in a periodic review multi-item inventory system. The definition of aggregate service can greatly affect system performance, so careful consideration is necessary. Four heuristics for determining reorder levels were derived and evaluated using simulation and data from a large international reseller, with the most accurate approximation performing best and generating significant savings compared to no service level differentiation.
