    Smart Pricing: Linking Pricing Decisions with Operational Insights

    Get PDF
    The past decade has seen a virtual explosion of information about customers and their preferences. This information potentially allows companies to increase their revenues, in particular since modern technology enables price changes to be effected at minimal cost. At the same time, companies have taken major strides in understanding and managing the dynamics of the supply chain, both their internal operations and their relationships with supply chain partners. These two developments are narrowly intertwined. Pricing decisions have a direct effect on operations and visa versa. Yet, the systematic integration of operational and marketing insights is in an emerging stage, both in academia and in business practice. This article reviews a number of key linkages between pricing and operations. In particular, it highlights different drivers for dynamic pricing strategies. Through the discussion of key references and related software developments we aim to provide a snapshot into a rich and evolving field.supply chain management;inventory;capacity;dynamic pricing;operations-marketing interface

We have conducted longitudinal case studies with firms practicing SC collaborations and also using smart information for operations. Based on the case analysis, the companies are further classified as 'smart planning' and 'traditional planning'. Research findings show the importance of aligning SC partnerships based on smart information requirements. These findings are based on case studies of Indian firms with global SC collaboration.

    Information technology and electronics firms from Taiwan Province of China in the United Kingdom: Emerging trends and implications

    Get PDF
    This article examines the modal choices, key activities and motivations of non-dominant information technology and electronics firms from Taiwan Province of China in the United Kingdom, against the backdrop of recent trends in the global economy. Its main findings include the limited prospects of the sample firms' evolution into manufacturing activity in the United Kingdom and the increasing importance of inter-firm logistics collaboration. Among the key policy implications discussed in the article are: the need for appropriate measures to support the United Kingdom's positioning as a gateway to, and a preferred base for intelligence gathering on, other European markets; the need for "high-wage" advanced economies to capitalize upon their not-easily-replicable location-specific advantages (e.g. reputable research-anddevelopment clusters; substantial domestic market) in targeting foreign direct investment in the research and development, design and sales-related areas; and the importance of a more balanced investment attraction strategy that actively targets major global players (and their capacity to attract secondary inward investment) without compromising support for indigenous growth companies. Future research should pay greater attention to the intra-regional, rather than intra-country, context of firms' evolution in international markets

    Setting Fair Prices – Fundamental Principle Of Sustainable Marketing

    Get PDF
    In commercial area, the price has a major importance, being frequently considered among the main criteria used in buying decision process. Price fairness derives from equity theory and it is focused on assuring in a transaction a reasonable report between the customer’s sacrifice and the value offered by the seller. In three marketing experiments we have evaluated customers’ fairness perceptions of differential prices, this tactic being frequently used by sellers. One important finding was that the motive for setting differential prices is important in fairness evaluation. Price differences based on social motives are perceived fairer than those motivated by company’s interest. The differential prices on customer category are perceived fairer than zone prices. In all three marketing experiments it was demonstrated that price fairness has a significant influence on value perception and on buying intentions. Fair prices setting is one of the principles sustainable marketing is based on, reflecting a long term orientation for a company. By following this decisional direction, the commercial firm increases the value offered to its customers and it becomes more socially responsible.sustainable development, sustainable marketing, fair price, price fairness, differential prices, distributive fairness, procedural fairness

    Thesis(Master) -- KDI School: Master of Public Management, 2021In the 4.0 Industrial Revolution era, ICT plays a very important role in the national economy, and governments in each country are investing huge budgets to promote "digital transformation" to expand and spread ICT infrastructure. Korea is no exceptional. In July 2020, the "Digital New Deal" was declared, preparing for digital transformation and transformation into a ‘contactless economy’. Then, how do we perceive changes in life through ICT utilization that enables such digital? To confirm this, the effects of producer (STUDY 1) and customer (STUDY 2) side among the three main economic entities, the government, households, and companies, were analyzed. In other words, in order to understand the perception of ICT utilization of both employees (production) and customers (consumption), 272 respondents participated this research survey. And five independent variables and two dependent variables were used, a total of 12 hypothesis tests were conducted for each study. Like most previous studies, ICT utilization had a positive effect on employee satisfaction and organizational performance in the side of production, and positively influenced consumer satisfaction and purchase decision-making from the customer perspective. However, the ‘efficiency’ variable through ICT utilization was rejected in each study, it is presumed that the attributes of ICT, which is connected without restrictions on time and space, hinder the ‘efficiency’ of people in their 20s and 30s, who account for 71% of this research survey.I.
