Optimal and heuristic base-stock levels and review periods in a serial Supply Chain

Abstract: A key issue in a Supply Chain (SC) concerns the control policy to determine the optimal order-up-to levels or base-stock levels and review periods. In this study, a mathematical model is developed to determine the optimal installation or local base-stock levels and review periods for every member in the SC that uses periodic-review order-up-to (S) policy, with the consideration of the ordering cost at every installation. Our model considers four members, namely, a supplier, a manufacturer, a distributor and a … Show more

“…The present authors have considered the SC settings and cost setting considered by Sethupathi and Rajendran (2010) except for retailer lost sales cost which is doubled with their shortage cost considered for retailer. This is purposefully done to give high penalty for lost sales.…”

“…The authors considered crossover rate CoR as 1.0 in this study and generated as many offspring's as the number of parent chromosomes. The MGGA makes use of the crossover operator, called the gene-wise crossover operator (Daniel and Rajendran, 2006;Sethupathi and Rajendran, 2010) that makes use of the information of genes of all the chromosomes that are present in p_pn and builds an offspring out of those chromosomes. The modified gene-wise crossover operator is explained with the following example in Figure 4.…”

“…Daniel and Rajendran (2005) considered a singleproduct serial supply chain operating with a base-stock policy and addressed the problem of optimizing the inventory levels using a genetic algorithm. Some researchers used simulation methodologies to develop and evaluate inventory policies in serial supply chain systems: Lee and Billington (1993), Glasserman and Tayur (1995), Axsater (2003), and Sethupathi and Rajendran (2010). These studies have not considered freight rates or supplier selection aspects in their models.…”
