Coordinating of multi-echelon supply chains through the generalized (R, S) policy

Abstract: Numerous studies have confirmed the negative impact of the lack of coordination on supply chain performance. In particular, the lack of coordination leads to the bullwhip effect, which has severe impacts on supply chain stability. This paper evaluates a proposed coordination mechanism that allows a decentralized information sharing in multi-echelon supply chains. The proposed mechanism “Info-Smooth” utilizes the ordering rule of the generalized (R, S) policy in which a replenishment order can be transferred to… Show more

“…Shaban et al [64] model a coordination mechanism to reduce the BWE through an Info-Smooth based on order smoothing and information sharing transferred upstream. The inventory policy (R,S) seeks to cover the gap between current and target inventory levels, reducing inventory variance and costs and decreasing adverse effects due to order parameters such as lead time.…”

“…In an earlier review, Zhiyong 5 introduces a different perspective and states that linear programming and mixed-integer programming have become fundamental tools in planning in the past decades, but they lack in accurately considering randomness of the processes. Nevertheless, simulation has always been a popular methodology in generating inventory control policies in warehouses, 18 performance management in supply chains, 19 and developing operational strategies in logistics. 20,21…”

“…The echelons in previous research were mainly in two [10][11][12][13] and three layers [14][15][16][17][18]. Only a few have built four echelons or more in the supply chain coordination model [19,20].…”
