The tradition al focus of demand fulfillment has been on assessing delivery capabilities \, e.g. for promising reliable delivery dates. More recently\, driven by i ncreasing customer heterogeneity\, service differentiation is becoming ano ther potential lever to manage profitability. This links demand fulfillmen t to the concept of revenue management (RM)\, as established in service in dustries.\nThis presentation starts by reviewing several recent studies th at develop RM oriented DF approaches in different supply chain settings. A pplications range from e-groceries to spare parts management. We then zoom in on a specific problem\, namely DF in make-to-stock (MTS) production. W e discuss two alternative modeling approaches for the resulting planning p roblem\, namely a deterministic linear programming model and a stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) model. We analyze the structure of the SDP and c ompare it to traditional RM models. We also highlight the strengths and we aknesses of both approaches and use them to develop several heuristics. A numerical study reveals the performance of the different approaches and pr ovides insights into the impact of key problem parameters.\n(The presentat ion is based on joint work with Herbert Meyr\, Rainer Quante\, and Yao Yan g.)\nA light lunch will be served.
