Q: In supply chain management, when always emphasize the global optimization, i.e. the policy should be designed so the profit of the whole supply chain should be maximized instead of a single firm's profit. But in reality, we always see that some powerful players dominate the supply chain.

The question is should giant firms like Wal-Mart care about the total supply chain profitability when they make decisions? Why, why not?
