Research methodology:
The supply chain of manufacturers who manufactures for OEM's. Those companies has good system of production and good knowledge of workforce engagement, so they achieve their goals more easily. OEM's outsources some components which they calculated, thats not good idea if OEM also starts manufacturing them. From here, supply chain parts start OEM outsource to its chosen supplier, then they further outsources and here chain reaction starts, which leads to huge supply chain. We chose diversified experts like sheet-metal fabricator, machined components manufacturers, suppliers who just supply material. So we can check whether bull whip is same in every supply chain, then check up to what extent, try to find reasons behind

But they don't know what and why. Due to all these problems other suppliers also get suffered. Lot of solutions were given and published in research papers which are just theory but some of them are really published some practical ways. So keep that in mind we did survey with manufacturers and suppliers. The questionnaire was mailed to them but before that we personally informs by calling them about study which helps us a lot to get good number of feedbacks. In survey, answers were on scale of 0-5, 0 for weak and 5 for strong reason for bull whip problem. Then after all responses, after taking average of all scores, here in this study, we shown number in …show more content…
Actual cycle time is the sum of both innate characteristics, such as manufacturing time & distance, and human aspects of the supply chain, which are information lags, production planning rules and labor availability (Torres & Maltz 2010:25). For this, industrial engineering techniques would help like quality tools, management philosophies etc.
ii)Lack of supply chain visibility
A lack visibility in supply chain leads to the bull whip effect. There is an inability to share easily or to retrieve information of trading partner in real time, as required by supply chain participants (Wisner et AL. 2008).

The adoption of new technologies and trends is being facilitated in the industry for the competition and the customer’s overall experience. Many suppliers that are having similar strategies face a strong competition. The barriers for exiting the markets are high. Products and services of are undifferentiated leading the customer to focus on the prices offered. Low market growth, so it can be increased only by taking another firm’s market share.
Brand described as a network of facilities and distribution options. The researchers argue the supply chain include different functional areas such as inbound and outbound transportation vegetables, chicken and meat, warehousing, inventory control, suppliers foods, supply management forecasting, production planning, order processing and customer services (Dwivedi, Dwivedi and Tewari, 2014). Supply chain management consists of managing the production network from raw material supplier to final customer. Regardless of any doubt, any industry faces a range of challenges in the supply
If a suppliers they decrease the quality of components, the quality of the finished product will slow-down or suffer so that manufacturer will lower its price or loses. Switch costs and supplier concentration, we need to have constant suppliers and we did not change any suppliers so that we no need to face any problem about switching cost. If the switching costs are high, fewer buyers will change the suppliers because of switching costs. Indeed, without top quality technologies, organizations like LEAFXPRO Bicycles would not possess the capability to build innovative bicycles that are able to surpass
This data well help in making the information abut the sales according to that records the company well decide the production of the product and see how much marketing is needed for sealing the product in the
These suppliers are concentrated in Jakarta and can be purchased from for just-in-time procurement. The number of suppliers of this input is high as these materials can be procured from foreign suppliers as well. The cost of switching to another supplier is low and therefore, suppliers of this degree have little bargaining power. However, businesses in the mattress industry compete on technological superiority.

In the early 2000s, The Boeing Company faced many challenges with increasing competition in the commercial aircraft market. To remain competitive, they began the development of their 787 Dreamliner aircraft using an unconventional approach in terms of supply chain management. The historical approach that Boeing used on previous aircraft designs required Boeing to procure raw materials and subassemblies from several different suppliers and manufacture the final assembly in house. Dreamliner sought out to be the first of Boeing 's kind to outsource 70 percent of its major subassemblies under a Partnering for Success initive (5) , leaving Boeing to assemble the final assembly performed in-house. Build airplanes the same way the automobile industry
The value chain analysis indicates the firms that strive to create superior products or services through focused differentiation strategy.
