Joint Optimization of Inventory and Preventive Maintenance: Systematic Literature Review and Research Agenda

Abstract

Recently, integration between activities in operational areas has more attention to improve and optimize in supply chain management. Joint optimization of inventory and maintenance are one of important activities in achieve operational excellence. Good spare part inventory management aims to minimize buffer time between supply time and demand needs in maintenance activities and operational activities by increasing availability of spare parts at the time required. The authors only focusing on joint spare parts inventory and preventive maintenance. This paper uses sytematic literature review (SLR) as a methodology in reviewing literature. This paper will classified of each research on primary studies by objective function, decision variables, variables, and methods. From the literature review results it is known that joint optimization of spare parts inventory and preventive maintenance can be explored further on multi echelon networks and considering several factors such as deterioration and obsolence, moreover some papers doing integrated calculations simultaneously not sequential or separately. 

A Systematic Literature Review: Design and Control of Warehouse Order Picking in Development of E-commerce Transaction

“…Systematic reviews and traditional reviews are both types of literature reviews, but they differ in terms of their methodologies, objectives, and rigor. Systematic review is a research method to identify, evaluate, and interpret all relevant research results related to certain research statements, certain topics, or phenomena of concern [14] and [15]. In principle, a systematic review is a research method that summarizes the results of primary research to present more comprehensive and balanced facts.…”

Integrated Model Development of Spare Part Inventory and Maintenance

“…Research about joint optimization of inventory and maintenance already much studied previously. Several studies [1] and [2] discussed about joint optimization of inventory and maintenance in systematic literature review form. These research more focuses in mapping research positions, research gap, and research opportunities for future research.…”
