Supply Chain and Inventory Management Reliability and Maintenance Optimization Scheduling and Optimization Algorithms

Abstract

The multi-item joint replenishment problem is generalized to allow ordering costs to be dependent on the specific items jointly supplied. A fixed cycle approach is examined in which all the items of a group are always jointly replenished. A dynamic programming algorithm is developed for partitioning the items into groups, each with its own fixed cycle time, resulting in an optimal fixed cycle replenishment policy.
