2022Resumen
For small-scale electronic commerce supply chains, designing effective strategies to improve
operational effectiveness, market share and long-term survival are essential aspects. However, researchers have given less attention in addressing these issues. This study proposes a
dynamic cost-sharing contract for an e-tailer supply chain to address the issues of asymmetric
information, long-term integration, and ineffective costs. We include consistency constraints
to obtain stable incentives over time and eliminate the need for re-negotiation. The findings
emphasise that the dynamic contract significantly reduces the overall supply chain costs. The
consistency constraints guarantee high incentives, thus assuring the players remain in the
total contract period and enable long-term integration.
