The efficiency of alternative control mechanisms in a MTO three-stage tandem production/inventory system

چکیده
In this work we develop a SD model for a make-to-order (MTO) three-stage capacitated production/inventory system. We employ a production order release mechanism affiliated with the automated pipeline inventory and order based production control system (APIOBPCS) policies family. The production rates at each stage are defined under alternative policies. One of the policies considers the human behavior in the decision making process. The robustness of the alternative policies is investigated through the dynamic response of the system under step and pulse changes in demand. Finally, the efficiency of the alternative policies is examined by means of six performance criteria.

Combined make-to-order and make-to-stock in a food production system
The research into multi-product production/inventory control systems has mainly assumed one of the two strategies: Make-to-Order (MTO) or Make-to-Stock (MTS). In practice, however, many companies cater to an increasing variety of products with varying logistical demands (e.g. short due dates, specific products) and production characteristics (e.g. capacity usage, setup) to different market segm...
متن کاملOptimization of two-stage production/inventory systems under order base stock policy with advance demand information
It is important to share demand information among the members in supply chains. In recent years, production and inventory systems with advance demand information (ADI) have been discussed, where advance demand information means the information of demand which the decision maker obtains before the corresponding actual demand arrives. Appropriate production and inventory control using demand info...

POMS 22 nd Annual Conference Reno, Nevada, U.S.A. April 29 to May 2, 2011 Abstract: MTS-MTO system is suitable where standard modules are shared by various finished products through divergent finalization. The system can satisfy product variety by taking advantage of flexibility of MTO, but its performance is lowered when the capacity is constrained. One way of dealing with the problem without ...

Conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) models are used to measure efficiency score of production systems when they are considered as black boxes and their internal relationship is ignored. This paper deals with a common special case of network systems which is called multi-stage production system and can be generalized to many organizations. A multi stage production system has some stages...

We consider a single stage multi-product manufacturing facility producing a large number of end-products for delivery within a service constraint for the customer lead-time. The manufacturing facility is modeled as a multi-product, multi-priority queuing system. In order to reduce inventory costs, an efficient priority allocation between items consists in producing some items according to a Mak...
