What Is Inventory?

Inventory is an idle resource which is usable and has value.

Stock of items kept to meet future demandPurpose of inventory management:

how many units to order when to order

Inventory Control Systems

Continuous system (fixed-order quantity)• constant amount ordered when inventory

declines to predetermined level.

Periodic system (fixed-time-period)• order placed for variable amount after fixed

passage of time.

Inventory Costs

Carrying or Holding cost- This broad category includes the costs for

storage facilities, handling, insurance, breakage, taxes and the opportunity cost of capital.

Ordering cost- Refer to the managerial and clerical costs to

prepare the purchase or production order.

Page 12: Industrial Management

1 Inventory Costs

Shortage cost- Temporary or permanent loss of sales when

demand cannot be met.

Setup Cost- To make each different product involves

obtaining the necessary materials, arranging specific equipment setups, filling out the required paper, charging time & material and moving out the previous stock of material.

Most Important Inventory Costs

Holding Costs

Denoted H; includes the variable expenses incurred by the plant related to the volume of inventory held e.g. 15-25%

Ordering Cost

Denoted S; fixed, constant money amount incurred for each order placed

3Inventory Model For IndependentDemand

Independent demand items are finished products or parts that are shipped as end items to customers.

Forecasting plays a critical roleDue to uncertainty- extra units must be

carried in inventory.

Economic Order Quantity EOQ Assumptions:

Demand is known & constant - no safety stock is required

Lead time is known & constant No quantity discounts are

available Ordering (or setup) costs are

constant All demand is satisfied (no

shortages) The order quantity arrives in a

single shipment

4 Master Scheduling

Master Scheduling is a business process designed to balance demand and supply at the detailed, mix level.

Master Scheduling is primarily a decision-making process, performed by an individual called the Master Scheduler. As such, it is people-centered; the computer’s role is to support the people in their decision-making activities.

Page 31: Industrial Management

4 Master Scheduling

The output from this process is the Master Production Schedule, which is the anticipated build schedule for specific products (or parts of products) and customer orders.

Page 32: Industrial Management

4 Master Scheduling

The Master Schedule is:

• time-phased,• extends for a number of weeks into the future,• is typically expressed in weekly time increments or smaller.

Page 33: Industrial Management

4 Master Scheduling

Master Production Schedule

Provides basis for: Making good use of manufacturing resources. Making customer delivery promises. Resolving tradeoffs between sales and

manufacturing. Attaining strategic objectives in the sales and

operations plan.

Page 34: Industrial Management

4 Master Scheduling

What is “Master Production Scheduling?”

Start with Aggregate plan (Aggregate Sales & Ops Plan) Output level designed to meet targets

DisaggregatesConverts into specific schedule for each item

Page 35: Industrial Management

Role of the MPS

Aggregate plan: Specifies the resources available (e.g.: regular

workforce, overtime, subcontracting, allowable inventory levels & shortages)

Master production schedule: Specifies the number & when to produce each

end item (the anticipated build schedule) Disaggregates the aggregate plan

4 Master Scheduling

Page 36: Industrial Management

4 Master Scheduling

S&OP vs MPS

“The role of the sales and operations plan is to balance supply and demand volume, while the MPS specifies the mix and volume of the output”

MPS shows when products will be available in future

Planned production, not forecast

Dependent Demand

For any product for which a schedule can be established, dependent

demand techniques should be used

Page 46: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Dependent Demand The demand for one item is related

to the demand for another item Given a quantity for the end item,

the demand for all parts and components can be calculated

In general, used whenever a schedule can be established for an item

MRP is the common technique

1. Master production schedule

2. Specifications or bill of material

3. Inventory availability

4. Purchase orders outstanding

5. Lead times

Effective use of dependent demand inventory models requires the following

5Material Requirement Planning (MRP)

Page 48: Industrial Management

Material Requirement Planning (MRP)

Define fundamental of Material Requirement Planning (MRP).

Materials requirements planning (MRP) is the logic for determining the number of parts, components, and materials needed to produce a product.

5

Page 49: Industrial Management

Material Requirement Planning (MRP)

MRP provides time scheduling information specifying when each of the materials, parts, and components should be ordered or produced.

MRP is a Computer-based information system that schedules and orders dependent-demand inventory components.

Page 50: Industrial Management

Benefits of MRP

1. Better response to customer orders

2. Faster response to market changes

3. Improved utilization of facilities and labour.

4. Reduced inventory levels

Page 57: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Gross Requirements

Starts with a production schedule for the end item – 50 units of Item A in week 8

Using the lead time for the item, determine the week in which the order should be released – a 1 week lead time means the order for 50 units should be released in week 7

This step is often called “lead time offset” or “time phasing”

5

Page 58: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Gross Requirements

From the BOM, every Item A requires 2 Item Bs – 100 Item Bs are required in week 7 to satisfy the order release for Item A

The lead time for the Item B is 2 weeks – release an order for 100 units of Item B in week 5

The timing and quantity for component requirements are determined by the order release of the parent(s)

5

Page 59: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Gross Requirements

The process continues through the entire BOM one level at a time – often called “explosion”

By processing the BOM by level, items with multiple parents are only processed once, saving time and resources and reducing confusion

Low-level coding ensures that each item appears at only one level in the BOM

MNT 2012

Net Requirements Plan

Page 63: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Net Requirements

Starts with a production schedule for the end item – 50 units of Item A in week 8

Because there are 10 Item As on hand, only 40 are actually required – (net requirement) = (gross requirement - on- hand inventory)

The planned order receipt for Item A in week 8 is 40 units – 40 = 50 - 10

5

Page 64: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Net Requirements

Following the lead time offset procedure, the planned order release for Item A is now 40 units in week 7

The gross requirement for Item B is now 80 units in week 7

There are 15 units of Item B on hand, so the net requirement is 65 units in week 7

A planned order receipt of 65 units in week 7 generates a planned order release of 65 units in week 5

5

Page 65: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Determining Net Requirements

A planned order receipt of 65 units in week 7 generates a planned order release of 65 units in week 5

The on-hand inventory record for Item B is updated to reflect the use of the 15 items in inventory and shows no on-hand inventory in week 8

This is referred to as the Gross-to-Net calculation and is the third basic function of the MRP process

Page 70: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

MRP Management

MRP is a dynamic system Facilitates replanning when changes occur

Regenerating Net change

System nervousness can result from too many changes

Time fences put limits on replanning Pegging links each item to its parent

allowing effective analysis of changes

5

Page 71: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

MRP and JIT

MRP is a planning system that does not do detailed scheduling

MRP requires fixed lead times which might actually vary with batch size

JIT excels at rapidly moving small batches of material through the system

5

Page 72: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Lot-Sizing Techniques

Lot-for-lot techniques order just what is required for production based on net requirements May not always be feasible If setup costs are high, lot-for-lot can

be expensive

Economic order quantity (EOQ) EOQ expects a known constant

demand and MRP systems often deal with unknown and variable demand

5

Page 73: Industrial Management

MNT 2012

Lot-Sizing Techniques

Part Period Balancing (PPB) looks at future orders to determine most economic lot size

The Wagner-Whitin algorithm is a complex dynamic programming technique Assumes a finite time horizon Effective, but computationally

burdensome

Lot-Sizing Summary

In theory, lot sizes should be recomputed whenever there is a lot size or order quantity change

In practice, this results in system nervousness and instability

Lot-for-lot should be used when low-cost JIT can be achieved

Lot-Sizing Summary

Lot sizes can be modified to allow for scrap, process constraints, and purchase lots

Use lot-sizing with care as it can cause considerable distortion of requirements at lower levels of the BOM

When setup costs are significant and demand is reasonably smooth, PPB, Wagner-Whitin, or EOQ should give reasonable results
