Setiap perusahaan selalu berusaha dapat memperoleh keuntungan yang besar. Salah satu cara dilakukan oleh adalah menekan biaya dikeluarkan. proses memerlukan besar logistik dan dua per tiga ini berasal dari persediaan transportasi. Permasalahan transportasi pada perspektif supply chain perlu dipertimbangkan bersama agar memberikan hasil optimal. dimodelkan dalam inventory routing problem (IRP). ...

The production routing problem (PRP) combines the lot-sizing problem and the vehicle routing problem, two classical problems that have been extensively studied for more than half a century. The PRP is solved in an attempt to jointly optimize production, inventory, distribution and routing decisions and is thus a generalization of the inventory routing problem (IRP). Although the PRP has a compl...

T work is motivated by the need to solve the inventory routing problem when implementing a business practice called vendor managed inventory replenishment. With vendor managed inventory replenishment, vendors monitor their customers’ inventories, and decide when and how much inventory should be replenished at each customer. The inventory routing problem attempts to coordinate inventory replenis...

The efficient design/redesign of the logistics network is essential for companies to maintain their competitive advantage. This paper presents a novel non-linear mixedinteger programming model for the multi-product capacitated location routing inventory problem (MPCLRIP), where a two-layer distribution system consisting of depots and customers was studied. The supply decisions such as location ...

We consider a single product maritime inventory routing problem in which the production and consumption rates are constant over the planning horizon. The problem involves a heterogeneous fleet of ships and multiple production and consumption ports with limited storage capacity. In spite of being one of the most common ways to transport goods, maritime transportation is characterized by high lev...

This study extends a mathematical model that integrates the location, allocation, inventory replenishment and routing decisions simultaneously. To cope with inherent uncertainty of parameters, we implement a continuous-time Markov process and derive the performance measures of the system. Using the obtained results, the problem is formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear programing model (MINLP)...

In this research work an analytical model has been proposed, for finding new distribution passage from the suppliers to the geographically scattered dealers and to deal with the pricing problem. Since the result for this model is a non-polynomial problem, tabu search that uses various surrounding approaches has been employed to provide gratifying results. Rate fixing and request claiming are ne...

Inventory management and transportation issues are very important problems in distribution companies. Simultaneous l optimization of these problems realizes significant savings for all partners of the supply chain. One of the problems that should be addressed in the scope of simultaneous sl optimization is the inventory routing problem (IRP). IRP deals with how to manage the supply goods from o...

This paper presents a mathematical model for an inventory control system in which customers’ demands and suppliers’ service time are considered as stochastic parameters. The proposed problem is solved through queuing theory for a single item. In this case, transitional probabilities are calculated in steady state. Afterward, the model is extended to the case of multi-item inventory systems. The...
