| 3.1.2 Information sharing | Information sharing enables members of the supply chain to use Point of Sale (POS) data to arrive at more accurate demand forecasts and agree on the production and supply plans that achieve global optimization of the supply chain as opposed to the less effective local optimization which disregards the effect of one member’s decisions on the rest of the supply chain (Simchi-Levi et al., 2009) |
| 3.2 Performance measurement systems | |

| 4.5 Product return (redistribution) | Includes reverse logistics - the movement of product from places where it may not be consumed to places where there is high demand to prevent stock accumulation. Includes return of viable stock to the lead supply chain agency |
