Seasonal product pricing under RFID application environment

摘要

Seasonal products such as apparel or electronic products have the characteristics of short lifecycle. The uncertain demand in their short lifecycle makes the challenge on seasonal products supply chain management. The value of seasonal products which decreases quickly has affected on the pricing of the product. RFID platform could trace the product value along the supply chain and support a proper pricing for the seasonal product, which is very important for seasonal supply chain management. In this paper, based on updated product value information from RFID platform the pricing model for seasonal product supply chain is studied. And, the simulation shows the effectiveness of model.
