Machine Learning-Based Demand Forecasting in Supply Chains
Effective supply chain management is one of the key determinants of success of today’s businesses. However, communication patterns between participants that emerge in a supply chain tend to distort the original consumer’s demand and create high levels of noise. In this article, we compare the performance of new machine learning (ML)-based forecasting techniques with the more traditional methods...
متن کاملThe impact of information sharing and forecasting in capacitated industrial supply chains: A case study
This paper models and analyses the effect of information sharing and forecasting on the performance parameters of an actual industrial supply chain consisting of Small-To-Medium sized enterprises. The paper reports on the industrial supply chain studied, which was undergoing a Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) exercise. The aim of the BPR exercise was the streamlining of existing unstructur...
متن کاملA credit period contract towards coordination of pharmaceutical supply chain:The case of inventory-level-dependent demand
This paper considers a two stages pharmaceutical supply chain (PSC) consisting of a pharmaceutical manufacturer (pharma-manufacturer) that supplies one type of pharmaceutical product to a pharma-retailer. The customer demand rate for the pharmaceutical product is dependent on the pharma-retailer’s current-inventory level. The pharma-retailer determines the order quantity ( ) value as decision v...
متن کاملDemand Forecasting Optimization in Supply Chain
To deal with the low accuracy of demand forecasting in supply chain, this paper uses the genetic algorithm to estimate the developing coefficient and the control variable of the GM(1,1) model and predicts the demand of every level in supply chain with this forecasting model, then uses a negotiation algorithm based on game theory to optimize the demand forecast when demand forecast disruption oc...
متن کاملAn improved demand forecasting method to reduce bullwhip effect in supply chains
Accurate forecasting of demand under uncertain environment is one of the vital tasks for improving supply chain activities because order amplification or bullwhip effect (BWE) and net stock amplification (NSAmp) are directly related to the way the demand is forecasted. Improper demand forecasting results in increase in total supply chain cost including shortage cost and backorder cost. However,...
