Impact of Transportation System on Total Cost in a Two-Echelon Dual Channel Supply Chain
The advent of e-commerce has prompted many manufacturers to redesign their traditionalchannel structure by engaging in direct sales. In this paper, we present a dual channel inventory modelbased on queuing theory in a manufacturer-retailer supply chain, consisting of a traditional retailchannel and a direct channel which stocks are kept in both upper and lower echelon. The systemreceives stocha...
متن کاملTwo-echelon Freight Transport Optimisation: Unifying Concepts via a Systematic Review
Multi-echelon distribution schemes are one of the most common strategies adopted by the transport companies in an aim of cost reduction, but their identification in scientific literature is not always easy due to a lack of unification. This paper presents the main concepts of two-echelon distribution via a systematic review, in the specific a meta-narrative analysis, in order to identify and un...
متن کاملA two-layered optimisation-based control strategy for multi-echelon supply chain networks
A new two-layered optimisation-based control approach is developed for multi-product, multi-echelon supply chain networks. The first layer employs simple feedback controllers to maintain inventory levels at all network nodes within pre-specified targets. The feedback controllers are embedded as equality constraints within an optimisation framework that incorporates model predictive control prin...
متن کاملMulti Echelon Spare Parts Inventory Optimisation: a Simulative Study
The research in this paper is motivated by a real life spare parts networks for complex technical systems in oil refining sector. At the customers the availability of the installed technical systems often is essential for the primary process. Hence, they require a high availability. For improve the management of the spare parts inventory the main company (the customer) has developed a new strat...
متن کاملInterval Availability Analysis of a Two-echelon, Multi-item System
In this paper we analyze the interval availability of a two-echelon, multi-item spare part inventory system. We consider a scenario inspired by a situation that we encountered at Thales Netherlands, a manufacturer of naval sensors and naval command and control systems. Modeling the complete system as a Markov chain we analyze the interval availability. We compute in closed and exact form the ex...
