Inventory Decisions in a Product-Updated System with Component Substitution and Product Substitution
Substitution behaviors happen frequently when demands are uncertain in a production inventory system, and it has attracted enough attention from firms. Related researches can be clearly classified into firm-driven substitution and customer-driven substitution. However, if production inventory is stock-out when a firm updates its product, the firm may use a new generation product to satisfy the ...
متن کاملComparing Process Flexibility with Inventory Flexibility via Product Substitution
This paper studies the optimal control of, interaction between, and relative value of two types of flexibility under Markov models of demand and production: process flexibility and inventory flexibility. In our model, process flexibility is generated by a multi-functional production facility that can produce two types of products, and inventory flexibility is manifested in firm-driven one-way p...
متن کاملA competitive multiple-product newsboy problem with partial product substitution
This paper studies a multi-product competitive newsboy problem with shortage penalty cost and partial product substitution. We characterize the unique Nash equilibrium of the competitive model and analyze some properties of the equilibrium. An iterative algorithm is developed on the basis of approximating the effective demand as well as the expected profit function for each product. Numerical e...
متن کاملApplication of queuing theory in inventory systems with substitution flexibility
Considering the competition in today’s business environment, tactical planning of a supply chain becomes more complex than before. In many multi-product inventory systems, substitution flexibility can improve profits. This paper aims to prepare a comprehensive substitution inventory model, where an inventory system with two substitute products with ignorable lead time has been considered, and e...
متن کاملMulti-product inventory planning with downward substitution, stochastic demand and setup costs
In this paper we consider a single period multi-product inventory problem with stochastic demand, setup cost for production, and one-way product substitution in the downward direction. We model the problem as a two-stage integer stochastic program with recourse where the first stage variables determine which products to produce and how much to produce, and the second stage variables determine h...
