Description
Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 工業工程學系 === 88 === This research presents a simulation model of a linear supply chain system utilizing order-up-to level inventory policy to achieve customer fill rate requirements and to reduce production cost under an uncertain environment. Customer’s satisfaction and production costs are the performance indices to evaluate supply chain’s efficiency. We investigate one-site and multi-site order-up-to level compensation policies and propose a coordinated-based policy as well. Simulation results show that our proposed coordinated mechanism of order-up-to level outperforms to the one-site and multi-site policies. Furthermore, this research observes some interesting phenomenons (particularly the bullwhip and ripple effects). This research concludes with an extension of the linear supply chain model to a tree-like supply chain system, showing the feasibility of the coordinated-based order-up-level policy in a general case.
