Controlling the Bullwhip Effect in a Supply Chain Network with an Inventory Replenishment Policy by a Robust Control Method
This paper develops a mathematical model using differential equations and considers a bullwhip effect in a supply chain network with multiple retailers and distributors. To ensure the stability of the entire system and reduce the bullwhip effect, a robust control method and an inventory replenishment policy are proposed. This shows that the choice of the output matrix may reduce the bullwhip ef...
متن کاملEffects of inventory policy on supply chain performance: A simulation study of critical decision parameters
This paper investigates the effects of information sharing and early order commitment on the performance of four inventory policies used by retailers in a supply chain of one capacitated supplier and four retailers. Model parameters and operating conditions are emulated from a local business supplying a standard product to its retailers. Through computer simulation and subsequent analyses, we f...
متن کاملThe Effect of Inventory on Supply Chain the Effect of Inventory on Supply Chain
in English) Supply chain management addresses the management of materials and information across the entire chain from suppliers to producers, distributors, retailers, and customers. In the past few decades, scholars gave ample attention about the impact of inventory on Supply Chain Management (SCM). Roughly speaking, research on supply chain management has been mainly focused on three major is...
متن کاملA modification for a centralized inventory policy for an Open-Loop reverse supply chain: simulation and comparison
As an extension to Gou et al.(2007)[7], this paper introduces a modified inventory policy for an open-loop reverse supply chain. The major issue is to determine the economical parameters to minimize the system wide cost. To find the optimal parameters, simulations are utilized. Comparison with the previous policy is also presented.
متن کاملDetermination of a Desirable Inventory Policy in a three Echelon Multilayer Supply Chain with Normal Demand
Inventory control is one of the most important issues in supply chain management. In this paper, a three-echelon production, distribution, inventory system composed of one producer, a set of wholesalers and retailers is considered. Costumers' demands can be approximated by a normal distribution and the inventory policy is a kind of continuous review (R, Q). In this paper, a model based on stand...
