Abstract
:
In this paper we consider the case of a three-stage non-serial supply chain system. This 19 supply chain system involves suppliers, manufactures, and retailers. Production and inven- 20 tory decisions are made at the suppliers and manufactures levels. The production rates for 21 the suppliers and manufactures are assumed finite. In addition the demand at each end 22 retailer is assumed to be stochastic. The problem is to coordinate production and inventory 23 decisions across the supply chain so that the total cost of the system is minimized. For this 24 purpose, we develop a model to deal with different inventory coordination mechanisms 25 between the chain members. We present a numerical example for illustrative purposes.
