An integrated production, inventory, warehouse location and distribution model

Designing an integrated production/distribution and inventory planning model of fixed-life perishable products

This paper aims to investigate the integrated production/distribution and inventory planning for perishable products with fixed life time in the constant condition of storage throughout a two-echelon supply chain by integrating producers and distributors. This problem arises from real environment in which multi-plant with multi-function lines produce multi-perishable products with fixed life ti...

Sequential versus integrated optimization: Production, location, inventory control, and distribution

An integrated model for warehouse and inventory planning

We propose a tactical model which integrates the replenishment decision in inventory management, the allocation of products to warehousing systems and the assignment of products to storage locations in warehousing management. The purpose of this article is to analyse the value of integrating warehouse and inventory decisions. This is achieved by proposing two methods for solving this tactical i...

An Integrated Production-Inventory Model with Backorder and Lot for Lot Policy

    inventory model,   backorder   buyer ,   vendor,   lot for lot policy In this paper, an inventory model for two-stage supply chain is investigated. A supply chain with single vendor and single buyer is considered. We assume that shortage as a backorder is allowed for the buyer and the vendor makes the production set up every time the buyer places an order and supplies on a lot for lot basis...
