Some definitions - Working stock - Cycle stock Safety stock - Speculative stock - Seasonal stock Assoc. Prof. Dr Ho Thi Thu Hoa Some definitions + Working stock. This is likely to be the major element of stock within a distribution depot’s stock-holding, and it should reflect the actual demand for the product. + Cycle stock. This refers to the major production stock within a production warehouse, and it reflects the batch sizes or production run lengths of the manufacturing process Safety stock. This is the stock that is used to cover the unpredictable daily or weekly fluctuations in demand. It is sometimes known as ‘buffer’ stock, as it creates a buffer to take account of this unpredictability : Speculative stock. This can be raw materials that are ‘bought forward’ for financial or supply reasons, o finished stock that is pre-planned to prepare for expected future increases in demand Seasonal stock, This is product that is stockpiled to allow for expected large increases in demand. Typically, this would include inventory built up prior to the Christmas demand peak. lea cacey Warehouses contain the following three types of inventory: v Fast-moving: items that sell out almost as fast as they're is produced Y Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) are products that are sold quickly and at a relatively low cost. ¥- Examples include non-durable household goods such as packaged foods, beverages, toiletries, candies, cosmetics, over-the-counter drugs, dry goods, and other consumables, v High-value: items that sell infrequently ¥ Hybrid: products that sell moderately quickly Warehouse management that need carefully classify their products are better able to efficiently stock inventory.

Demand management and forecasting Y Demand management is the function of recognizing and managing all demands for products. It ‘occurs in the short, medium, and long term. Y Demand management includes four major activities: Forecasting. Order processing. Making delivery promises. Interfacing between manufacturing planning and control and the marketplace.

The return ‘on inventory investment is the marginal profit on sales that would not occur without inventory. Donald Bowersox and David Closs and M, Bixby Cooper (2002): Supply Chain Logistics Management. 5 edition (2019) Why do we need to hold stock? v To keep down productions costs — setting up machines is expensive. Production needs to be as long as possible to achieve low unit cost v To accommodate variations in demand - demand is never regular. It varies v To take account of variable supply (lead) times — held to cover any delivery delays from suppliers v Buying costs — administrative costs associated with raising an order. Essential to balance buying costs with administrative costs using EOQ v To take advantage of quantity discounts — some products are offered at a Y cheaper unit cost when bought in bulk ¥ To account for seasonal fluctuations — some products are popular only in peak demand time. To address this while maintaining an even level of production, stock needs to be built up throughout the rest of the year. Rushton etal (2014) Assoc. Prof. Dr Ho Thi Thu Hoa 23 - To allow for price fluctuations/speculation - prices of some products can fluctuate for a number of reasons.

Prof. Dr Ho Thi Thu Hoa 28 Example: safety or buffer stock *Order quantity is 1000 units (Q) and safety stock (SS) is 300 units. What is the average inventory? v There are four principal elements of inventory holding cost. They are: v 1. Capital cost: the cost of the physical stock. This is the financing charge that is the current cost of capital to a company or the opportunity cost of tying up capital that might otherwise be producing a better return if invested elsewhere. This is almost always the largest of the different elements of inventory cost. v 2. Service cost: the cost of stock management and insurance. v 3, Storage cost: the cost of space, handling and associated warehousing costs involved with the actual storage of the product. v 4. Risk cost: this occurs as a consequence of pilferage, deterioration of stock, damage and stock obsolescence. With the reduction in product life cycles and the fast rate of development and introduction of new products, this has become a very important aspect of inventory cost. It is one that is frequently underestimated by companies. It is particularly relevant to high-tech industries, the fashion industry, and fresh food and drink. Assoc.

Prof. Dr Ho Thi Thu Hoa Lead time Lead time (LT) is a critical component in making inventory decisions, Example: If 70 items are used per week and the supply LT is 2 weeks, then the quantity to order to cover the demand during the supply LT (called the lead time demand) is 140 items. ‘Types of lead time: Lead time ‘Action By Pre-order Pi User conor reine Order pane Castro pt Sppler Order depuching Supper Prodan Making order = Supper Wershose Supe om sock Suppor Tat Tenporieg Serie faces Rectang Cinorer Pamere Pare Carron eile The problem of lead time variability The main issue to be resolved with lead time is not its length of time but the uncertainty and variability that can occur + If lead time (LT) is halved from 12 to 6 weeks but the lead time variability (LTV) stays the same at 4 weeks, then uv uy ou uv Assoc.

This is for a fixed order quantity (Q). L represents the lead time for the order, and the figure shows that when the order arrives the stock level is increased by the set quantity that has been ordered. T represents the time period between orders, the length of which varies from one cycle to another for this system. + Fixed point reorder system requires the use of a specific stock level to trigger replenishment. The safety stock is a term used to describe the level of stock that is required stockouts, which might be caused by uncertainties in supply and demand. Rushton etal (2014) Assoc.

T. represents the reorder cycle time, which is the regular interval at which stock is reviewed — say at the beginning of every month. An order is placed at a quantity (Q) that will bring the inventory for this product back to the predetermined stock level (P). Note that the quantity ordered includes an allowance for the time it takes for the product to be delivered from the supplier (this is the lead time, L). With this method, the quantity ordered is different each time an order is placed. Rushton etal (2074) Assoc. Prof. Dr Ho Thi Thu Hoa 44 ‘Trend line hoo Random Muctustion Rushton etal (2074) .

List the items (decreasing order) according to their annual dollar usage. 4. Calculate the cumulative annual dollar usage and the cumulative percentage of items. 5. Examine the annual usage distribution and group the items into A, B, and C groups based on percentage of annual usage. Example problem A company manufactures a line of ten items. The usage and unit cost are shown in the following table, along with the annual dollar usage. The latter is obtained by multiplying the unit usage by the unit cost. a. Calculate the annual dollar usage for each item. b. List the items according to their annual dollar usage. ©. Calculate the cumulative annual dollar usage and the cumulative percentage of items d. Group items into an A, B, C classification. Assoc.
