 (manufacturing firms)
or merchandise
(retail stores)

11-6 Inventory Management

Functions of Inventory

 To meet anticipated demand


 To smooth production requirements
 To protect against stock-outs
11-7 Inventory Management

 To take advantage of order cycles


 To help hedge against price increases
 To permit operations
 To take advantage of quantity discounts
11-8 Inventory Management

Objective of Inventory Control

 To achieve satisfactory levels of customer


service while keeping inventory costs within
reasonable bounds
 Level of customer service
 Costs of ordering and carrying inventory
11-9 Inventory Management

Effective Inventory Management


 A system to keep track of inventory
 A reliable forecast of demand
 Knowledge of lead times
 Reasonable estimates of
 Holding costs
 Ordering costs
 Shortage costs
 A classification system
11-10 Inventory Management

Inventory Counting Systems

 Periodic System
Physical count of items made at periodic
intervals
 Perpetual Inventory System
System that keeps track
of removals from inventory
continuously, thus
monitoring
current levels of
each item
11-11 Inventory Management

Inventory Counting Systems (Cont’d)

 Two-Bin System - Two containers of


inventory; reorder when the first is empty
 Universal Bar Code - Bar code
printed on a label that has
information about the item
to which it is attached

Key Inventory Terms

 Lead time: time interval between ordering


and receiving the order
 Holding (carrying) costs: cost to carry an
item in inventory for a length of time,
usually a year
 Ordering costs: costs of ordering and
receiving inventory
 Shortage costs: costs when demand exceeds
supply

11-14 Inventory Management

Cycle Counting

 A physical count of items in inventory


 Cycle counting management
 How much accuracy is needed?
 When should cycle counting be performed?
 Who should do it?
11-15 Inventory Management

Economic Order Quantity Models

 Economic order quantity model


 Economic production model
 Quantity discount model
11-16 Inventory Management

Assumptions of EOQ Model

 Only one product is involved


 Annual demand requirements known
 Demand is even throughout the year
 Lead time does not vary
 Each order is received in a single delivery
 There are no quantity discounts
11-17 Inventory Management
11-18 Inventory Management
11-19 Inventory Management
11-20 Inventory Management

Economic Production Quantity (EPQ)

 Production done in batches or lots


 Capacity to produce a part exceeds the part’s
usage or demand rate
 Assumptions of EPQ are similar to EOQ
except orders are received incrementally
during production
11-21 Inventory Management
11-22 Inventory Management
11-23 Inventory Management
11-24 Inventory Management

Economic Production Quantity Assumptions

 Only one item is involved


 Annual demand is known

 Usage rate is constant

 Usage occurs continually

 Production rate is constant

 Lead time does not vary

 No quantity discounts
11-25 Inventory Management

When to Reorder with EOQ Ordering

 Reorder Point - When the quantity on hand


of an item drops to this amount, the item is
reordered
 Safety Stock - Stock that is held in excess of
expected demand due to variable demand
rate and/or lead time.
 Service Level - Probability that demand will
not exceed supply during lead time.
11-26 Inventory Management

Determinants of the Reorder Point

 The rate of demand


 The lead time

 Demand and/or lead time variability

 Stockout risk (safety stock)


11-27 Inventory Management

Fixed-Order-Interval Model

 Orders are placed at fixed time intervals


 Order quantity for next interval?

 Suppliers might encourage fixed intervals

 May require only periodic checks of


inventory levels
 Risk of stockout
11-28 Inventory Management

Fixed-Interval Benefits

 Tight control of inventory items


 Items from same supplier may yield savings
in:
 Ordering
 Packing
 Shipping costs
 May be practical when inventories cannot be
closely monitored
11-29 Inventory Management

Fixed-Interval Disadvantages

 Requires a larger safety stock


 Increases carrying cost

 Costs of periodic reviews


11-30 Inventory Management

Single Period Model

 Single period model: model for ordering of


perishables and other items with limited
useful lives
 Shortage cost: generally the unrealized
profits per unit
 Excess cost: difference between purchase
cost and salvage value of items left over at
the end of a period
11-31 Inventory Management

Single Period Model

 Continuous stocking levels


 Identifies optimal stocking levels
 Optimal stocking level balances unit shortage
and excess cost
 Discrete stocking levels
 Service levels are discrete rather than
continuous
 Desired service level is equaled or exceeded
11-32 Inventory Management

Operations Strategy

 Too much inventory


 Tends to hide problems
 Easier to live with problems than to eliminate
them
 Costly to maintain

 Wise strategy
 Reduce lot sizes
 Reduce safety stock
