Summary: | 碩士 === 育達商業科技大學 === 資訊管理所 === 99 === In their book, Co-opetiton, Brandenburger and Nalebluff (1996) introduce a framework for applying game theory principles into management practice. The message is that competition and cooperation can, and should, co-exist. Their concern is with growing the pie itself rather than gaining a bigger share of what is already there.
In the related research, joint procurement has been recognized as an effective way to reduce production costs. But, there are still some problems encountered by the members engaged in joint procurement, for example, how to decide the optimal procurement period, how much should be ordered in each joint procurement period, and if the maximal or optimal revenues can be achieved based on the procurement policies. Therefore, in this research, a dynamic co-opetition game of joint procurement has been proposed to optimize the total revenue. By using Transposition Cipher and Substitution, the optimal procurement strategy for each member engaged in this game can be obtained.
