Abstract: |
Supply chains in industry have a very
complex structure. The influence of many parameters is not known. Therefore
the control of the orders, material flow and stock is rather difficult. In
order to recognize the basic relationships between the parameters, a very simple
model was set up. It consists of 4 identical stages. In all stages the stock
is closed-loop controlled to a nominal stock. Therefore the only decision which can be done in the entire supply chain is
the quantity of an order. In a first simulation run a suitable order strategy
will be defined. Good results can be realized, if an order is splitted up in two: A customers order and a stock order.
In a second run this strategy will be applied to a seasonal trend of the customers requirements. It will be shown that the bullwhip
effect can be minimized with the applied order strategy. |
