Book excerpt: Vollman, Berry, Whybark and Jacobs', Manufacturing Planning & Control Systems, 5/e provides comprehensive real world based coverage of the concepts, tools, and methods used to manage and control manufacturing systems. This major revision contains four entirely new chapters and four thoroughly upgraded to nearly original content. ERP system coverage and the impact of them in the field is covered now in a new introductory chapter (4) as well as being integrated heavily into many other chapters from Sales and Operations Planning (3) to Advanced Scheduling Systems (16).

Download or read book Inventory Analytics written by Horst Tempelmeier and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-06-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a practice-oriented introduction into Analytics-based inventory management in complex supply chains. In the context of Business Analytics, we concentrate on Prescriptive Analytics. In addition to standard single-level inventory models also multi-level approaches for the optimal allocation of safety inventory are presented. Moreover, dynamic lot sizing problems under random demand and random yield and their relationship to Material Requirements Planning (MRP) are discussed.The models and algorithms are illustrated with the help of numerous examples. The book has been written for students of Supply Chain Management and Operations Management as well as for practitioners who are confronted with inventory management in their daily work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alternative repair part inventory policies are examined for a multi-echelon logistics system. The policies assessed pertain to the design of multi-echelon systems rather than the evaluation of stock level decisions for individual repair parts. Although the context is one of a military inventory system, the policies examined are of importance in non-military systems where item failure rates are low and only periodic access to resupply is possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The placement and sizing of safety stocks in supply chains pose a challenging optimization problem. State-of-the-art multi-echelon inventory optimization models, such as the guaranteed-service approach, are non-linear and depend on statistical, time-series-based approaches that require distributional and parametric assumptions. We propose a data-driven, non-parametric and distribution-free approach for safety stock planning in multi-echelon inventory networks that utilizes historical demand and feature data. We extend data-driven optimization in inventory control from newsvendor models to multi-period and multi-echelon problems. Our model accommodates general, acyclic multi-echelon networks and simultaneously determines safety stock allocation and sizing by setting cost-optimal base stocks for all stages under consideration of service requirements. By developing a mixed-integer programming formulation and a Benders decomposition method, we offer a novel methodological approach to a well-studied problem that can be solved with commercial mathematical programming solvers. We also provide a probabilistic analysis of the data-driven performance relative to an oracle solution when sample data is limited. We show that the mixed integer programming approach is scalable by solving 38 large-scale supply chain benchmark networks with assembly, distribution, and general structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study is to develop prescriptions for strategically placing safety stocks in an arborescent supply chain in which there are moderate to severe risks of disruptions in supply. Our work builds off of recently published work by Graves and Willems (2003) that demonstrates that a simple-to-compute, congestion-based adjustment to supply lead times, first developed by Ettl et al. (2000), can be embedded in a non-linear optimization problem to minimize total investment in safety stock across the entire supply chain. We are interested in investigating how the Graves and Willems (GW) model performs under uncertainty in supply. We first propose an adjustment to the model (Mod-GW) by considering two types of fulfillment times, a normal fulfillment time and a worst possible fulfillment time, which allows us to account for supply uncertainty, or disruptions in supply. We evaluate the performance of GW and Mod-GW using Monte Carlo simulation and, using motivation from Timed-Petri Net analysis, develop an Informed Safety Stock Adjustment (ISSA) algorithm to compute the additional buffer stock levels necessary to improve downstream service performance to the target level. We find that the service performance of the Mod-GW solution is most sensitive to the probability of disruption at any node in the supply chain, requiring higher safety stock adjustments through ISSA as this probability increases. In particular, the relative value of the holding costs for components and finished goods--and the resulting impact on where safety stock is held in the network--is an important moderating factor in determining the level of service performance degradation of the Mod-GW solution as either, the probability of disruption at node j, or, the ratio of the disrupted and normal lead times, increases (i.e., as disruptions exert more impact on the network). The Informed Safety Stock Adjustment algorithm generally suggests a sufficient complementary amount to the saf.
