Segmenting Demand
walk-in demand -- appointment
由于walk-in demand是不可控的,需求是浮动的;可以通过设置appointment的数量调整每天的需求,以达到稳定的level demand
smooth demand
Offering Price Incentives
Differential pricing
Reduced prices before 6PM at movie theaters
例如,在低峰高峰时间段,给予不同的价格
Promoting Off-Peak Demand
Different sources of demand -- off-peak capacity
use of a resort hotel during the off-season as a retreat location for business or professional groups
例如,利用淡季的度假酒店给商务用途的使用
Developing Complementary Services
waiting costumers
Managing Capacity
Defining Service Capacity
An achievable level of output per unit of time
Daily Workshift Scheduling
Q1: 需求具有波动性,需要调整Service Capacity,以满足需求
Q2: 解决在一天内如何安排员工班次,以匹配每小时变化的需求
Q3: 解决在一周内如何安排员工的休息日,以在满足连续休息的前提下,用最少人手满足每天不同的需求。

Mixed Strategy
Reservation Systems and Overbooking
Example 11.2 Surfside Hotel
Q: 预定系统
Fully booked
-- 但是顾客因为各种原因,并没有按时入住
No-shows
-- Surfside Hotel
did not achieve very high occupancy
The expected number of no-shows
The expected loss of overbooking
不超额预定 -- 超额预定最小期望损失 之间的差额 = Average gain
Reduce expected loss
Overbooking policy
A balance
The opportunity cost of a vacant room
The best overbooking strategy should minimise the expected cost in the long run
The cost of not honouring a reservation
可能会造成的问题
过度预定导致的安排客人到其他酒店入住的成本
The loss of customer goodwill & The impact this has on future business
Yield Management
定义
a comprehensive system that incorporates many of the strategies (e.g., using reservation systems,
overbooking, and segmenting demand) to maximize revenue.
Ideal Characteristics
Relatively fixed capacity
短期内无法轻易增加或减少产能
Ability to segment markets
顾客划分为不同群体
群体类型可能通过产品或服务的价值认知和支付意愿的不同划分
Perishable inventory
容易消逝,无法储存
例如,飞机座位,起飞后未售出的座位将没有价值
Product sold in advance
可以提前销售
Fluctuating demand
波动需求
Low marginal sales cost and high capacity change cost
提供额外服务成本低(飞机餐)--增加总产能成本高(飞机数量)
Example 11.6
Blackjack Airline
低估成本--保留过少的全价座位,导致机会损失(售出在折扣价,本来可以全价售出,损失差价)
高估成本--保留过多的全价座位,导致本可以在折扣价售出,但没有售出,损失折扣价格
