INVENTORY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:
INVENTORY:
Basically, inventory management is an attempt to balance
inventory needs and requirements with the need to minimize
costs resulting from obtaining and holding inventory. There are
several schools if thought that view inventory and its function
differently. These will be address later but first we present a
foundation to facilitate the reader’s understanding of inventory
and its function.
OVERVIEW:
Opposing Views of Inventories
Nature of Inventories
Fixed Order Quantity Systems
Fixed Order Period Systems
Other Inventory Models
Some Realities of Inventory Planning
Wrap-Up: What World-Class Companies Do
WE WANT TO HOLD INVENTORIES FOR:
Improve customer service
Reduce certain costs such as
• ordering costs
• stock out costs
• acquisition costs
• start-up quality costs
Contribute to the efficient and effective operation of the
production system
Finished Goods
• Essential in produce-to-stock positioning strategies
• Necessary in level aggregate capacity plans
• Products can be displayed to customers
Work-in-Process
• Necessary in process-focused production
• May reduce material-handling & production costs
Raw Material
• Suppliers may produce/ship materials in batches
• Quantity discounts and freight/handling $$ savings
WE DO NOT WANT TO HOLD INVENTORIES:
Certain costs increase such as
• carrying costs
• cost of customer responsiveness
• cost of coordinating production
• cost of diluted return on investment
• reduced-capacity costs
• large-lot quality cost
• cost of production problems
NATURE OF INVENTORY:
Two Fundamental Inventory Decisions
Terminology of Inventories
Independent Demand Inventory Systems
Dependent Demand Inventory Systems
Inventory Costs
TWO FUNDAMENTAL INVENTORY DECISIONS:
How much to order of each material when orders are placed
with either outside suppliers or production departments
within organizations
When to place the orders
INDEPENDENT DEMAND INVENTORY SYSTEMS:
Demand for an item carried in inventory is independent of
the demand for any other item in inventory
Finished goods inventory is an example
Demands are estimated from forecasts (Chapter 3) and/or
customer orders
DEPENDENT DEMAND INVENTORY SYSTEMS:
Items whose demand depends on the demands for other
items
For example, the demand for raw materials and components
can be calculated from the demand for finished goods
The systems used to manage these inventories (Chapter 15)
are different from those used to manage independent
demand items
INVENTORY COST:
Costs associated with ordering too much (represented by
carrying costs)
Costs associated with ordering too little (represented by
ordering costs)
These costs are opposing costs, i.e., as one increases the
other decreases
The sum of the two costs is the total stocking cost
When plotted against order quantity, the TSC decreases to a
minimum cost and then increases
This cost behavior is the basis for answering the first
fundamental question: how much to order
It is known as the economic order quantity
BALANCING CARRYING AGAINST ORDERING COSTS:
Note: this is the theoretical review of my topic “ inventory
menegement system”
But in term paper I will try to do mostly in c++ coding.
