Characteristics of Push Strategy In SCM
? Communication between seller and buyer ? Communication can be interactive and non-interactive ? Applied to that portion of supply chain where demand uncertainty is ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

relatively small Production and distribution based on long term forecasts Large and variable production batches Based on past orders received from retailer’s warehouse Large safety stack is needed Less expenditure on advertising than pull strategy May lead to Bullwhip effect Example: advertizing through television and radio

Source: pull and push policy in market driven management by Margherita Corniani

Characteristics of Pull Strategy In SCM
? Consumer request the product and ‘pull’ it through the delivery channel

An example of this is the car manufacturing company Ford Australia. Ford Australia only produces cars when they have been ordered by the customers. ? Applied to that portion of the supply chain where demand uncertainty is high ? Production and distribution is demand driven ? not always make to order production. Toyota Motors Manufacturing is frequently used as an example of pull production, yet do not typically produce to order. They follow the "supermarket model" where limited inventory is kept on hand and is replenished as it is consumed
