Bandit
supply chain (Article 1)
 Bandit products are mainly captured in Asian
countries like China1.
 Upstream firm focus on the quality of the upstream
firm and downstream firm emphasizes on price of
those products1.
 Mobile phones are the topmost bandit products since
20017 in China and the annual capital is nearly $20
billion1.
 The reason for the mobile phone industry to grow in
bandit supply chain is that mobile manufactures does
not have to spend cost for giving fair share in taxes
(free riding) and they just focus on simple external
designs along with manufacturing processes1.
 MediaTek Incorporation (MTK) formulates a turn-
key processor and software accompanied together1.
 Bandit supply chain enhances the performance of
mainstream firm as in order to compete with smaller
mobile company, they intend to focus on product’s
quality1.
 However, due to lesser supply chain cost, bandit
products also give value to improve their product’s
quality1.
Demand forecasting
(Article 2)
 The military operations, demand forecasting is done
by emphasizing on customer-service performance.
 Well-defined and highly refined manufacturing
process drives the commercial supply chain; however,
well-defined process for manufacturing and multi-
echelon network distribution system defines the
military supply chain2.
