, 11. Chapter 11 – Inventory Management
11.1. Understanding inventory management
The average cost of inventory in the United States is 30% of it’s value.
Inventory cost are mainly related to:
- Obsolescence
- Insurance
- Opportunity
Customer order decoupling point:
The closer this point to the customer, the quicker the customer can be served. The closer to the
customer, the higher the inventory investment (costs).
Mostly there are more decoupling points in a supply chain.
The models discussed in this chapter (chapter 11) are more appropriate to retail store inventory and
warehouse inventory. Manufacturing plant inventory and raw materials are discussed in chapter 9.
Three different models to predict inventory:
1. The single-period model (one time purchases)
2. Fixed-order quantity model (want to maintain an item in stock, when an item gets down a
fixed level, a fixed amount of units will be ordered)
3. Fixed time period model (item is ordered at certain intervals of time).
Inventory: The stock of any item or resource used in an organization.
Inventory system: The set of policies and controls that monitor levels of inventory and determine
what levels should be maintained, when stock should be replenished, and how large orders should
be.
Manufacturing inventory: Items that contribute to or become part of a firm’s product output.
- Raw materials
- Finished products
- Component parts
- Supplies
