Abstract:

  • A model for setting inventory target levels for constrained production is proposed.
  • Parameters are estimated directly from the demand data using a single simulation run.
  • The model is highly accurate across a wide range of demand distributions.
  • No user modelling of demand distributions or parameters is required.
  • The new model is easily used by practitioners or implementable in software.
