Optimal Joint Inventory and Transshipment Control Under Uncertain Capacity
In this paper, we address the optimal joint control of inventory and transshipment for a firm that produces in two locations and faces capacity uncertainty. Capacity uncertainty (e.g., due to downtime, quality problems, yield, etc.) is a common feature of many production systems but its effects have not been explored in the context of a firm that has multiple production facilities. We first cha...
متن کاملConstraint multiproduct joint-replenishment inventory control problem using uncertain programming
An uncertain economic order quantity (UEOQ) model with payment in advance is developed to purchase high-price raw materials. A joint policy of replenishments and pre-payments is employed to supply the materials. The rate of demand is considered LR-fuzzy variables, lead-time is taken to be constant, and it is assumed that shortage does not occur in the cycles. The cycle is divided into three par...
متن کاملA new approach to two-location joint inventory and transshipment control via L♮-convexity
We provide a new approach to the analysis of the optimal joint inventory and transshipment control with uncertain capacities by employing the concept of L-convexity. In this approach, we use variable transformation techniques and apply two recent results to establish the L-concavity of the profit-to-go functions, which significantly simplifies the analysis in the existing literature. Some varia...
متن کاملService parts inventory control with lateral transshipment and pipeline stockflexibility
In equipment-intensive industries such as truck, electronics, aircraft and dredging vessel manufacturing, service parts are often slow moving items for which the transshipment time is not negligible. However, this aspect is hardly considered in the existing service logistics literature. In this paper, we consider this aspect and propose a customer-oriented service measure which takes into accou...
متن کاملOptimal lateral transshipment policy for a two location inventory problem
We consider an inventory model for spare parts with two stockpoints, providing repairable parts for a critical component of advanced technical systems. As downtime costs for these systems are huge, ready-for-use spare parts are kept on stock, to be able to quickly respond to a breakdown of a system. We allow for lateral transshipments of parts between the stockpoints upon a demand arrival for a...
