Revenue-sharing contracts:
The buyer pays a minimal amount for each unit purchased from the
supplier but shares a fraction of the revenue for each unit sold
Decreases the cost per unit charged to the retailer, which effectively
decreases the cost of overstocking
Quantity flexibility contracts:
Allows the buyer to modify the order (within limits) as demand
visibility increases closer to the point of sale
Better matching of supply and demand
Design collaboration
50-70 percent of spending at a manufacturer is through procurement
80 percent of the cost of a purchased part is fixed in the design
phase
Design collaboration with suppliers can result in reduced cost,
improved quality and decreased time to market

Note: Sea, air and pipeline share about 15 percent of the total material
transportation in the supply chain.

Intermodal/multimodal transportations
Use of more than one mode of transportation to move a shipment to its
destination e.g. rail/truck, water/rail/truck or water/truck etc.
Grown considerably with increased use of containers
Increased global trade has also increased use of intermodal transportation
More convenient for shippers (one entity provides the complete service)
Key issue involves the exchange of information to facilitate transfer
between different transport modes
