Abstract (summary)
This paper studies the effectiveness of implementing option contracts for the procurement of seasonal products, subject to short selling season, demand uncertainty, and supply-side disruption. The research intends to show how profitability and product availability can be enhanced both locally and globally by combining different supply contracts such as fixed price contracts and option contracts. In particular, the paper aims to identify business settings with respect to disruption parameters, demand uncertainties, and option contract pricing under which the supply contract could improve the overall supply chain performance.
