Multi-echelon inventory control in divergent systems with shipping frequencies
We consider inventory control in a two-echelon divergent network, consisting of a central depot and multiple (non-identical) local warehouses. Past research has shown that (R, S) order-up-to control rules for this system type can easily be obtained using a decomposition approach, where the derivation of the order-up-to level S is separated from the derivation of the rationing parameters. We sho...
متن کامل(1, T) policy for a Two-echelon Inventory System with Perishable-on-the-Shelf Items
This paper deals with an i * Corresponding author Email address: nventory system with one central warehouse and a number of identical retailers. We consider perishable-on-the-shelf items; that is, all items have a fixed shelf life and start to age on their arrival at the retailers. Each retailer faces Poisson demand and employs (1, T) inventory policy. Although demand not met at a retai...
متن کاملThe Cost Function for a Two-warehouse and Three-Echelon Inventory System
In this paper, the cost function for a three-echelon inventory system with two warehouses is derived. Transportation times are constant and retailers face independent Poisson demand. Replenishments are one-for-one. The lead time of a retailer is determined not only by the constant transportation time but also by the random delay incurred due to the availability of stock at the warehouses. We co...
متن کاملEstimation of the cost function of a two-echelon inventory system with lost sales using regression
Multi-echelon inventory systems are one of the most important and attractive areas in modelling supply chain management so that several researches and studies have been done about. In this paper, the total cost function of a two-echelon inventory system with central warehouse and many identical retailers controlled by continuous review inventory policy is estimated. We have assumed the demand i...
متن کاملSimultaneous Pricing, Routing, and Inventory Control for Perishable Goods in a Two-echelon Supply Chain
Due to the rapid development of technology in recent years, market competition and customer expectations have increased more than ever. In this situation, it is vital for businesses survival to determine the appropriate policy for inventory control, pricing, and routing, and decisions regarding each of them are often made separately. If the products have a perishable nature, it will be more imp...
