Analysis of an inventory system with emergency ordering option at the time of supply disruption

Abstract: This paper studies a continuous-review stochastic inventory problem for a firm facing random demand and random supply disruptions. The supplier experiences operational (on) and disrupted (off) periods with exponentially distributed durations. The firm adopts an order-up-to level policy during the on period and additionally can release an emergency order based on the inventory level just before disruption. This inventory policy is described by a continuous-time Markov chain model. We analyze the model for two d… Show more

“…Several intermittent demand forecasting methods have been developed using Markov models [14], such as the machine learning method [17], the Bootstrap method applied to forecasting aircraft parts [18], the aggregation approach method [13]. Markov Combined Method (MCM) [11], CTMC model [19], Markov Decision Process with Policy Iteration Method [20], and many more. Based on these data, research using the Markov Model to predict intermittent demand for retail companies is rarely done.…”
