Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 工業工程與管理系所 === 95 === In the traditional supply chain management, we use forecasting and push management to control the inventory, which causes the stock to pile up and the inventory can’t reflect the fluctuation of the actual demand. To solve this problem, TOC proposes Demand-Pull and Buffer Management to reduce the inventory. However, Buffer Management often causes high inventory level. To reduce the stock level, this research discusses the problems which occurred when using Buffer Management in practice. Furthermore, we improve Buffer Management by solving these problems. At last, this research create a computer program and simulate various of scenarios to proves that the improved Buffer Management will decrease the inventory and have fewer shortages than the original one in all circumstances.
