Abstract:

This article presents a recoverable spares model for performance evaluation in a multiechelon inventory environment. This model explicitly incorporates the phenomenon known as multiple failures, in which more than one part can require replacement or repair when an end-item reaches a maintenance base. The model is shown to be computationally intractable, and an approximation scheme is presented to estimate system performance.
