Abstract

The implementation of supply chain has to reduce the total cost of system, but generally each component of a supply chain tries to find the best policy for its company and consequently tries to find a local optimum. Knowing that the sum of local optimum cannot constitute the global optimum, it is necessary to consider all costs of system simultaneously to find the optimal replenishment policy for all the components of a supply chain. Demand rate of the item is assumed to be a function of time known as ramp type function. Shortages are permitted and partially back-ordered. The back-ordering fraction is taken to be decreasing function of waiting time. We consider inflation and apply discounted cash flow in the problem analysis. Total cost of the system is formulated and optimal replenishment policy is derived, keeping in view the above factors of the system. We use Genetic Algorithm (GA) to solve the models. A numerical example and sensitivity analysis is shown to illustrate the models.
