Abstract This article addresses a reorder point method with an extended inventory position. The inventory position is decreased by near future known demand spikes. This advance demand information helps to improve the performance of the reorder point method. The proposed extension leads to a hybrid model: make-to-stock for demand less than the spike threshold and make-to-order for demand greater than the spike threshold. Furthermore, the number of cycles is modeled more generally and takes into account that the replenishment order has lot-size Q or an integer multiple of Q. An iterative solution procedure is developed for the proposed model, and the numerical results are shown to underpin the usefulness of the approach.

利用提前需求高峰信息对再订货点方法的扩展

摘要 本文介绍了一种具有扩展库存位置的再订货点方法。库存头寸因近期已知的需求高峰而减少。这种提前需求信息有助于提高再订货点方法的性能。提议的扩展导致了一个混合模型：低于峰值阈值的需求按库存生产，大于峰值阈值的需求按订单生产。此外，周期数被更普遍地建模，并考虑到补货订单的批量大小 Q 或 Q 的整数倍。为所提出的模型开发了迭代求解程序，并显示了数值结果支持方法的有用性。
