Abstract

We examine how information and material distortions affect inventory management performance of a major retailer. Bullwhip effects (BWEs) are individually calculated for dozens of products carried by dozens of retail locations. Relationships between item/store-level BWEs and item/store-level performance measures including gross margins, stockouts and inventory levels are tested and reported.
