Inventory Control by Sven Axsäter Pdf

Modem information technology has created new possibilities for more sophisticated and efficient control of supply chains. Most organizations can reduce their material flow costs substantially. Inventory control techniques are very important components in this development process. A thorough understanding of relevant inventory models is a prerequisite for successful implementation. I hope that this book will be a useful tool in acquiring such an understanding. Nearly ten years ago I wrote a Swedish book on inventory control. This previous book has been used in courses in production and inventory control at several Swed ish engineering schools and has also been appreciated by many practitioners in the field. Positive reactions from many readers have occasionally made me contemplate writing a new book in English on the same subject. Encouraging support of this idea from the Kluwer Editors Fred Hillier and Gary Folven finally convinced me to go ahead with the project. The result is this new book, which in many ways differs from its Swedish prede cessor. Some differences are due to recent developments in inventory control. Fur thermore, this new book is in a sense more theoretical. In particular, it is to a larger extent focused on creating a good basic understanding of different possible ap proaches when analyzing inventory models.

Supply Chain Engineering and Logistics Handbook by Erick C. Jones Pdf

This handbook begins with the history of Supply Chain (SC) Engineering, it goes on to explain how the SC is connected today, and rounds out with future trends. The overall merit of the book is that it introduces a framework similar to sundial that allows an organization to determine where their company may fall on the SC Technology Scale. The book will describe those who are using more historic technologies, companies that are using current collaboration tools for connecting their SC to other global SCs, and the SCs that are moving more towards cutting edge technologies. This book will be a handbook for practitioners, a teaching resource for academics, and a guide for military contractors. Some figures in the eBook will be in color. Presents a decision model for choosing the best Supply Chain Engineering (SCE) strategies for Service and Manufacturing Operations with respect to Industrial Engineering and Operations Research techniques Offers an economic comparison model for evaluating SCE strategies for manufacturing outsourcing as opposed to keeping operations in-house Demonstrates how to integrate automation techniques such as RFID into planning and distribution operations Provides case studies of SC inventory reductions using automation from AIT and RFID research Covers planning and scheduling, as well as transportation and SC theory and problems

Inventory Management Handbook by R. W. Van Eps Pdf

The Inventory Management Handbook (IMH) has been developed over many years to bridge the gap between theory and practice. It provides a comprehensive reference for inventory management practitioners and students. It covers the range of independent demand systems as well as Material Requirements Planning (MRP) in manufacturing and maintenance. Case studies for the implementation of alternate systems such as Just in Time (JIT), consignment stock and vendor managed inventory are included to show how they are implemented. The IMH also covers a wide range of inventory related topics such as forecasting, stocktaking, cataloguing and spares criticality assessment (SCAS). The IMH is based on the Inventory Management course notes developed for Central Queensland University distance education and enhanced over the ten years the course was conducted. It is therefore easily followed with worked examples of the many algorithms encountered in inventory management. The IMH has been further expanded to include relevant case studies of companies such as Aristocrat Technologies, BHP, Comalco, ICI, Mincom and Kenworth, the most up-to-date inventory management developments as well as a glossary and Normal Distribution table.

Handbook of EOQ Inventory Problems by Tsan-Ming Choi Pdf

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) inventory model first appeared in 1913, and in its centennial, it is still one of the most important inventory models. Despite the abundance of both classical and new research results, there was (until now) no comprehensive reference source that provides the state-of-the-art findings on both theoretical and applied research on the EOQ and its related models. This edited handbook puts together all these interesting works and the respective insights into an edited volume. The handbook contains papers which explore both the deterministic and the stochastic EOQ-model based problems and applications. It is organized into three parts: Part I presents three papers that provide an introduction and review of various EOQ related models. Part II includes four technical analyses on single-echelon EOQ-model based inventory problems. Part III consists of five papers on applications of the EOQ model for multi-echelon supply chain inventory analysis.
