Summary of Proposal for Public Release The nature of Supply Chains has undergone a major transformation in the recent past and the modelling advice needed from OR/IE must adapt to deal with the new issues that have arisen. A recent market survey by Deloitte Consulting concluded "No longer will companies compete against other companies, but total supply chains will compete against other supply chains" and that it is crucial to build efficient and effective supply chains; "develop a strategic plan for your supply chain that works in today's competitive environment" and "effectively establish close ties with suppliers, distributors, and retailers". This research will study long-term relationships in Supply Chains, in particular both supplier selection and supplier development. A long term relationship is likely to contrast with spot purchasing by involving joint investment in specific products and processes. This research will combine the three themes of multiple period contracting, competition and finally the 'power' structure that exists within most supply chains. My aim is to translate some of work typically developed for single period models with competition or multiple periods without competition, in order that we might study both, and the impact that both have on the form of contracts agreed to by the parties. The form of these relationships will in turn determine to a large extent the effectiveness and efficiency of the many operational decisions made within the supply chain partnership.

公开发布建议摘要供应链的性质在最近经历了重大变化，需要从OR/IE获得的建模建议必须进行调整，以处理出现的新问题。德勤咨询公司(Deloitte Consulting)最近的一项市场调查得出结论：“公司将不再与其他公司竞争，但整个供应链将与其他供应链竞争”，关键是要建立高效有效的供应链；“为您的供应链制定在当今竞争环境下运作的战略计划”，以及“有效地与供应商、分销商和零售商建立密切联系”。这项研究将研究供应链中的长期关系，特别是供应商选择和供应商发展。长期关系很可能与现货采购形成对比，因为后者涉及对特定产品和流程的联合投资。这项研究将结合多阶段合同、竞争以及存在于大多数供应链中的“权力”结构这三个主题。我的目标是将一些通常为有竞争的单时期模型或无竞争的多时期模型开发的工作翻译过来，以便我们可以研究这两个模型，以及两者对各方同意的合同形式的影响。这些关系的形式将在很大程度上决定供应链伙伴关系内作出的许多业务决策的效力和效率。
