Coordinated Replenishment

MGT 509

Single Stocking Point

Items sharing common supplier, transport mode, or production facility

Advantages

Savings on unit purchase costs

Savings on unit transportation costs

Savings on ordering/setup costs

Ease of scheduling

Disadvantages

Possible increase in average inventory levels

Increase in system control costs

Reduced flexibility

Deterministic Scenario

Assumptions for standard EOQ apply here too

STEP 1: Number the items such that is smallest for item 1. And set

STEP 2: Calculate rounded to nearest integer >0

STEP 3: Calculate

STEP 4: Determine

Deterministic Scenario with discounts

STEP 1: Repeat steps in previous slide. But use

STEP 2: IF use the found in Step 1. ELSE

STEP 3: Compare TRCs

(Keep the from Step 1.)

Probabilistic Scenario

How often do we review the status of items?

When do we reorder the group?

How much do we reorder?

How do we allocate the total order among individual items?

(S,c,s) = Can-Order Systems

Periodic Review

Probabilistic Scenario

Periodic Review System

Outperforms (S,c,s) and is easier to compute

STEP 1: Compute EOQ and Time Supply for each item using only

STEP 2: Choose the item with the smallest time supply and denote it item 1. Start increasing until . Include now and keep increasing the alphas until or Ts are equal or total alpha = 1

STEP 3: Round all other Ts to powers-of-two multiples of base period

Probabilistic Scenario with discounts

Miltenburg Algorithm

Figure 10.3

Application of Miltenburg’s algorithm

For periodic review

STEP 1: Calculate ASPRC

STEP 2: Calculate ESPRC

STEP 3: IF ESPRC > ASPRC THEN place order ELSE wait until next review

To order: allocate the amount between 80% of and IP. If there is still room allocate remaining load based on share of demand rate in total demand

Capacitated Lot Sizing

Select Ti that produces minimum total relevant cost per unit time

Each item required in the period under consideration has its
