چکیده

abstractin this study, a vendor-managed inventory model is developed for a single-vendor multiple-retailer single-warehouse (sv-mr-sv) supply chain problem based on the economic order quantity in which demands are stochastic and follow a uniform probability distribution. in order to reduce holding costs and to help balanced on-hand inventory cost between the vendor and the retailers, it is assumed that all inventory is held at a central warehouse with the lowest cost among the parties. the capacity of the central warehouse is limited. the objective is to find the warehouse replenishment frequency, the vendor's replenishment frequency, the order points, and the order quantities of the retailers such that the total inventory cost of the integrated supply chain is minimized. the proposed model is a mixed integer nonlinear programming problem (minlp); hence, a genetic algorithm (ga) is utilized to solve this np-hard problem. the parameters of the ga are calibrated using the taguchi method to find better solutions. some numerical illustrations are solved at the end to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed methodology and to evaluate the performance of the solution method.

Vendor Managed Inventory of a Supply Chain under Stochastic Demands

In this research, an integrated inventory problem is formulated for a single-vendor multiple-retailer supply chain that works according to the vendor managed inventory policy. The model is derived based on the economic order quantity in which shortages with penalty costs at the retailers` level is permitted. As predicting customer demand is the most important problem in inventory systems and th...

A parameter-tuned genetic algorithm for vendor managed inventory model for a case single-vendor single-retailer with multi-product and multi-constraint

This paper develops a single-vendor single-retailer supply chain for multi-product. The proposed model is based on Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) approach and vendor uses the retailer's data for better decision making. Number of orders and available capital are the constraints of the model. In this system, shortages are backordered; therefore, the vendor’s warehouse capacity is another limitati...

Supply chain integration in vendor-managed inventory

This paper develops an analytical model that explores how important supply chain parameters affect the cost savings to be realized from collaborative initiatives such as vendor-managed inventory (VMI). Results from the model show that benefits, in the form of inventory cost reductions, may be generated from integration depending upon the ratio of the order costs of the supplier to the buyer and...

Pricing in Supply Chain under Vendor Managed Inventory

The successful implementation of supply chain management depends on many soft issues (strategic/behavioural) such as organizational resistance to change, inter-functional conflicts, joint production planning, profit sharing, team oriented performance measures, channel power shift, information sharing, real time communication, inventory and technical compatibility (Min & Zhou 2002). Many of the ...
