Supply Chain Management Local Model for Unreliable Suppliers

Abstract

A supply chain management mathematical model for an isolated warehouse with two suppliers of different reliability is considered. Optimal inventory control strategy synthesis algorithm is constructed. The transfer to stationary strategies is investigated. We developed C++ software package to simulate algorithm for two different probabilistic distributions of demand: discrete Gauss-like and another one, discrete too, close to uniform. These examples are used to investigate the optimal stationary strategy parameters and costs dependency of econometrical attributes (among these–discount factor).
