15. Reorder point (ROP)
Lead time – amount of time from order placement to
receipt of goods
Lead time demand – the demand the occurs during
the lead time
16. Abstract
•In this paper, we study periodic inventory systems with long review
periods.
•We develop dynamic programming models for these systems in which
regular orders as well as emergency orders can be placed periodically.
•We identify two cases depending on whether or not a fixed cost for
placing an emergency order is present.
•We show that if the emergency supply mode can be used, there exists
a critical inventory level such that if the inventory position at a review
epoch falls below this critical level, an emergency order is placed.
17. •We also develop simple procedures for computing the
optimal policy parameters. In all cases, the optimal
order-up-to level is obtained by solving a myopic cost
function.
•
•Thus, the proposed ordering policies are easy to
implement

23. we develop dynamic programming models for an inventory
system where regular orders as well as emergency orders can
be placed periodically.
We identify two important cases depending on whether or not
a fixed cost for placing an emergency order is present.
We show that if the emergency supply channel can be used,
there exists a critical inventory level such that if the inventory
position at a review epoch falls below this level, an emergency
order is placed.
We also develop simple procedures for computing the optimal
policy parameters. In all cases, the optimal order-up-to level is
obtained by solving a myopic cost function.
Thus, the proposed ordering policies are easy to implement.
