Description
Summary:This study explored the tools used in curbing the bullwhip effect. The paper is dedicated for small to medium enterprises to grow and thrive in their business using the most effective method that is in their capacity and capability. This qualitative research is followed by a case study on a company whose Chief Executive Officer was interviewed thus contributing data to this research.
