Contract Award And Bidding Strategies, Burton V. Dean Jan 1964

Contract Award And Bidding Strategies, Burton V. Dean

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

The R and D contract award and bidding decision process is studied from the points of view of bidders and customers. Competitive bidding models are developed which incorporate such factors as probability of contract award, level of resource utilization, and expected return. Conditions and methods for estimating the probability of contract award are presented. Competitive bidding strategies for the cases of known and unknown numbers of bidders and single and multi-proposal situations are investigated. [Likely published circa 1964.]


Decentralized Management Of Interacting Processes: A Technique Of Nonlinear Programming (Ii), Leon S. Lasdon, S. Sankar Sengupta Jan 1964

Decentralized Management Of Interacting Processes: A Technique Of Nonlinear Programming (Ii), Leon S. Lasdon, S. Sankar Sengupta

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

In this part certain conditions are established under which an equilibrium point of the algorithm of price-adjustment (P - E) is asymptotically stable in the large. These conditions are phrased as requirements on the functions involved in the original or integrated problem. It is shown that although the usual concavity requirements (for maximization problems) are sufficient to guarantee stability, much less will suffice. Mathematically, this appears as the fact that, for stability, only the sum of certain quadratic forms - one for each sub-problem - must be negative, so that one or more positive terms may be cancelled by others …


Towards A General Theory Of Systems Model Of Subsystems, F. Benson, M. Gurel Jan 1964

Towards A General Theory Of Systems Model Of Subsystems, F. Benson, M. Gurel

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

This report critiques the traditional classification of Operations Research models into eight types, highlighting their historical origins and limitations in addressing complex systems with multiple decision-makers. The study explores the potential for more general models that combine two or more model types to gain deeper insights into the behavior of complex systems. While iterative optimization of subsystems is a common approach, the analysis shows that this method is unreliable and may not achieve system-wide optimality. Instead, constructing comprehensive models of the entire system is necessary, emphasizing the need for advanced mathematical methods, particularly in solving partial difference equations. However, such …

Capacity Expansion In Oligopoly, S. Sankar Sengupta, Gifford H. Symonds Sep 1963

Capacity Expansion In Oligopoly, S. Sankar Sengupta, Gifford H. Symonds

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

Imperfections of competition may be modeled in terms of stochastic dependence of the price realized by an individual firm on certain decision variables of the firm and of its competitors; or models may be constructed describing how the profits of each competitor are influenced stochastically by the price or quantity decisions of every other competitor. Models of the latter type seem to blur the distinction between what is traditionally understood as monopolistic competition and oligopoly. We shall, therefore, look for some operational definition of oligopoly, that is, a definition in terms of what firms do and how the market (if …
