description The literature investigates the importance of delayed differentiation on supply chain management. Its application was found in the 1920’s (Yang and Burn, 2003). The literature traced the symptom of study by referring to the seminal work of Alderson (1950). Alderson argued that overall costs could be reduced by postponing a differentiating stage of production. The classical work was then extended by viewing it as an opportunity to shift the risk of owning goods from one position in a supply chain to another. Later researcher as depicted in the theory matrix perceived delayed or postponement differentiation as labeling, packaging, assembly, manufacturing and time. This perception of postponement continues in part to this day. The theory matrix also depicted the evolution of research from single activities to clustering of activities.
