Study on the delivery response time decision model of TPT-CLSC

Closed-loop supply chain based on third-party take back model (TPT-CLSC) is the key issue on business area. Making use of the production of supply chain response time, this paper studies TPT-CLSC decision-making mode based on delivery response time using game theory, and analyzes the optimal delivery response time and pricing strategies of decentralized decision-making and centralized decision-making which are two of TPT-CLSC model. We can draw a conclusion: the latter excel the former, at the same time, delivery response time in TPT-CLSC can not affected by decision model, which the two model´s delivery response time is equal. In the end, author uses numerical analysis verifying the accuracy of above conclusions.
