Abstract:
In this article, a contemporary view of demand chain management (DCM) is provided along with an in-depth
literature review that has tracked all of the relevant and key articles on the subject to date. While the concept
of DCM is believed to have been introduced in the 1990’s, there has not been much research on DCM
relative to other areas such as supply chain management. The methodologies, industries, and cases study
companies utilized in the literature are also documented. A unique field case from the home improvement
industry is provided along with recommendations for future research in the DCM field.
