Motivation BehaviouralExperiment Figure 1. Amplification (bullwhipeffect) of orders and inventorylevels
Motivation • [Lee et al. 2000;Takahashi and Myreshka, 2004; Warburton 2004; Pereira et al., 2009] • MAIN REASONS OF BULLWHIP-EFFECT: • Demandprocess • Forecastingmethods • Orderingbehaviour • Lead time • Price variations
Motivation • [Sterman 2006; Wu and Katok, 2006; Croson et al., 2013] • BEHAVIOURAL REASONS: • Cognitiveaspects • Decisionmakerheuristics and biases • Properties of orderingmethods • Perception of uncertainty
Agenda • SCM model • Bullwhip-effect • Judgmentunderuncertainty • Experiments • Conclusions and FutureWork

ResearchQuestions • Behaviouralreasons of bullwhipeffect? • Heuristics? • Biases? • Methoddependent?
Judgment under uncertainty(Kahneman & Tversky, 1974) • Heuristic mind processing • Adaptation behaviour • Simple probabilistic judgement • Systematic bias
Heuristics • REPRESENTATIVENESS • Judgement in terms of similarity HEURISTICS • AVAILABILITY • Judgment in terms of simplicity of evocation • ADJUSTMENT AND ANCHORING • judgment in terms of anevocated anchor
Somebiases • REPRESENTATIVENESS • Insensivitytoprior probabilityof outcomes • Aversiontolosses • Regressiontowardthe mean • AVAILABILITY • Retrievability of instances • Imaginability • Illusorycorrelation HEURISTICS • ADJUSTMENT AND ANCHORING • Insufficientadjustment • Evaluation of conjunctive and disjunctiveevents
Experiments • SC model • Uncertaindemandprocess • Experiment #1: no instruction • Experiment#2: pullinstruction
Experiment #1 Figure 4. Experimentsetting • Veryhighinitialinventorylevel (N=1000) • Lowvariabilitydemandprocess (μ=100; σ=10%) • Participants are notinstructedoninventorymanagement
Results #1 Figure 5. Amplification at stages 1, 2, 3 (L=2); the case of 4 groups
Results #1 Table2. Amplification (no instructiontoparticipants)
Questions Push feedback Pull • Do peopleconsiderfeedback? • Disregardingfeedback, induce bias? • Whatbiases?
Orderpredictability #1 Table3. Multipleregressionresults (D: demand, I: inventory, OP: work-in-process)
Mainresults #1 • Peopledisregardfeedback • They use heuristicsand performverybad • Bias: Substitution of attributes • Question: • Howcouldpeopleimprove performance?
Experiment # 2 • Samesupplychainsetting • Very-highinitialinventorylevel (N=2000) • Medium-variabilitydemandprocess (μ=200; σ=50%) • Participants are instructedonpull: • Order = consumption • Keepinventoryunder control
Conclusions • Sensitivitytoinventorycosts? • Cognitive variables in place • heuristics and biases • Achievement of thetask? • groupswithverybad performance • Somegroups are verygood • Facinguncertainty? • substitutionof attributebias • Simple dimensional approach (1 or 2) • Disregardingfeedback
Conclusions • Facingtheinventorydynamics? • Overreactiontopossiblenegativescenario • Anchoring and adjustmentheuristic • Futurework: • Levels of perceiveduncertainty • Management people
