Stochastic Perishable Inventory Control Systems in Supply Chain with Partial Backorders

نویسنده

چکیده

This article analyzes a supply chain management system (SCM), with two echelons. We consider a perishable inventory with Poisson demand, exponential life time and positive lead time at distribution center (DC) and retailer. Partial backlogging at retailer node is assumed with limited quantity. (s, S) policy at retailer and (M-1, M) policy at DC are assumed to get a tractable analytic solution. Transient and steady state solutions are discussed. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the proposed SCM model.

Single cycle supply chain coordination model for fuzzy stochastic demand of perishable items

Market demand of the  perishable bakery  products are volatile. Hence, demand of such items are random variable. The most appealing demand distribution of such items is lognormal demand distribution. Using historical data, the parameters of lognormal distribution are obtained. But, there is a problem of overestimation or underestimation of the parameters. Fuzzy triangular numbers are used to ov...

Inventory Management Under Random Supply Disruptions and Partial Backorders

We explore the management of inventory for stochastic-demand systems, where the product’s supply is randomly disrupted for periods of random duration, and demands that arrive when the inventory system is temporarily out of stock become a mix of backorders and lost sales. The stock is managed according to the following modified (s , S) policy: If the inventory level is at or below s and the supp...
