Paper Title: 

LOGISTICS OF EXPERIENCE: MEASURING THE BENEFITIS OF SUPPLY CHAIN COOPERATION THROUGH INVENTORY MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES

Abstract: 

One of the main problems that the Supply Chains are facing has to do with generating a high customer satisfaction through an appropriate inventory management strategy. In order to solve this situation the supply chain managers has implemented some collaboration techniques as CPFR (Collaborative Planning Forecasting and Replenishment and quick response methods like VMI (Vendor Management Inventory) or 3C (Commonality, Capacity and Consume). In this paper we'll discuss a comparison model between those techniques and a new cooperation approach called Hybrid Method, which was designed by the authors as a new inventory management strategy using an spreadsheet simulation model (based on Microsoft Excel and }also created by the authors) looking for the cooperation benefits as a function of inventory management policies.
