Fundamentals of Production Planning and Control Chapter 5 Inventory Management
Basic Inventory Concepts Inventory is stored capacity Inventory is a symptom not a problem
Categories of Inventory Sources of demand Position of the inventory in the process Function or use of the inventory
Sources of Demand Independent Demand (Forecasting/EOQ) Dependent Demand (MRP or Kanban)
Position of the Inventory Raw Materials Work in Process (WIP) Finished Goods Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO)
Function of the Inventory Transit or Transportation Inventory Cycle or Lot-Size Inventory Buffer or Fluctuation Inventory Anticipation Inventory Decoupling Inventory Hedge Inventory
Cost of Inventory Not Having Inventory Having Inventory
Costs of Not Having Inventory Stockouts/Customer Goodwill Excessive Setups (split lots) Expediting Backorders Extra Shipping Expenses Production rate problems Poor facility utilization
Costs of Having Inventory Setup Costs/Order Costs Holding Costs
Setup Costs/Order Costs Manufacturing – cost of changeover Lost production Cost of scrap incurred Purchasing - cost of placing an order Paperwork for making purchase Cost of receiving
Holding Costs Rent, lease, mortgage Utilities Maintenance Tracking and monitoring of inventory Damage/spoilage Pilferage/shrinkage Obsolescence Taxes and Insurance Interest (cost of capital)
Calculation of Holding Cost H – cost of holding a unit in inventory H = rP P – unit production/procurement cost r – percentage based on cost of capital
EOQ Model TC DC Q 2 H D S Q TC – Total Cost D – Annual Demand C – Cost per item Q – order quantity per order H – holding cost per year (Ci) S – order or setup cost

EOQ Example A company decides to establish an EOQ for an item. The annual demand is 400,000 units, each costing $8.00, ordering costs are $32 per order, and inventory carrying costs are 20%.
Calculate the EOQ
EOQ Example EOQ 2DS H D 400,000 per year S $32 per order H rP .2(8) 1.6
EOQ Example EOQ 2(400,000) (32) 1.6

EOQ Example How many orders will they place per year?
EOQ Example EOQ 4000 units D 400,000 units Orders per year 400,000 4000 100

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) Demand is constant, continuous, and known Demand is independent Set cost is fixed Holding cost is known and constant Total holding cost is a linear function of lot size Instantaneous replenishment Unit purchase cost is fixed (no quantity discounts or production economies) Stockouts do not occur
Problems with EOQ-based Methods Assumptions limit applicability Demand is rarely constant and known Costs are difficult to identify Replenishment is not instantaneous
EOQ Model is Robust
Inventory Pattern over Time Inventory Level 0 Time
Relax Instantaneous Replenishment Assumption Replenishment Lead Time - The time it takes from order until arrival Must reorder before zero point is reached
Determination of Reorder Point Inventory Level Reorder Point Time 0 Lead Time
Reorder Point Calculation R d L where d the average demand L lead time both must be in the same unit of measure
Reorder Point Example Lead time for the previous product is 2 weeks. What is the Reorder Point (assume 50 weeks in a year)?
Reorder Point Example R d L d 400,000 50 8000 (average weekly demand) L 2 weeks R 8000 (2) 16000
Relax Additional Assumptions Things can disrupt the conditions established Supplier late Demand exceeds expectations Maintain safety stock
Safety Stock Calculation SS z L z z score representi ng customer service level σ L standard deviation of demand during lead time L
d L
Z-scores 90% customer service level, z = 1.29
95% customer service level, z = 1.65
99% customer service level, z = 2.33
Reorder Point with Safety Stock R demand during lead time plus safety stock d L z L
Safety Stock Example Assume the standard deviation of demand is 1000 units. If the company wants to maintain a 95% customer service level, what should safety stock be and the new reorder point?

Inventory Control Having the right stuff in the right place at the right time
Location Approaches Fixed or Home Locations Floating or Random Locations Combinations Zoned Random Home with Reserve Stock
ABC inventory control Uses Pareto’s law About 20% of the items account for 80% of the dollar usage About 30% of the items account for 15% of the dollar usage About 50% of the items account for 5% of the dollar usage
Steps in making an ABC analysis 1. Determine the annual usage for each item 2. Multiply the annual usage of each item by its item cost to get is total annual dollar usage 3. List the items according to their annual dollar usage
Steps (continued) 4. Calculate the cumulative annual dollar usage and the cumulative percentage of items 5. Exam the annual usage distribution and group the items into A,B, and C groups based on the percentage of annual usage.

Control Based on ABC Classification Have plenty of low-value items Use the money and control effort saved to reduce the inventory of high-value items
A Items – tight control Complete accurate inventory records Regular and frequent review by management Frequent review of demand forecasts Close follow-up and expediting to reduce lead time
B Items – Normal Controls Good records Regular attention Normal processing
C items – Simple or No Records 2 –bin system or periodic review system Order large quantities Carry safety stock
Importance of inventory accuracy Allows firms to maintain customer service Operate efficiently and effectively
Inaccurate records cause Lost sales Shortages and disrupted schedules Excess inventory Low productivity Poor delivery performance Excessive expediting
Causes of inventory record errors Unauthorized withdrawal of material Unsecured stockroom Poorly trained personnel Inaccurate transaction recording Poor transaction recording systems Lack of audit capability to catch mistakes
Inaccurate Transaction Recording Inaccurate piece counts Unrecorded transactions, Delay in recording transactions Inaccurate material location Incorrectly identified parts
Measuring inventory record accuracy Record accuracy = Number of records within tolerance/total number of records Tolerance – amount of variation permitted due to Inaccuracies of count Expense of perfect accuracy

Auditing accuracy Physical Inventory Cycle Counting
Physical Inventory Process Housekeeping Identification Training Take inventory
Taking the inventory Count items and record the count on a ticket left on the item Verify this count by recounting or by sampling When the verification is finished collect the tickets and list the items in each department Reconcile the inventory records for differences between the physical count and inventory records
Disadvantages Lost production time Not accurate Have people counting that don’t really understand Often more errors are introduced Expensive Not timely
Cycle Counting Advantages Timely detection and correction of problems Partial reduction of lost production Use of personnel trained and dedicated to cycle counting
When to count When an order is placed When an order is received When inventory reaches zero When a specified number of transactions have occurred When an error occurs Randomly generated using ABC
ABC method Count parts on a rotating cycle based an ABC classification A – 12 times per year B - 4 times per year C –1 time per year
Additional Cycle Counting Techniques Location Audit System Zone Method
Location audit system If using ABC counts and floating locations System only counts what it thinks is there Count every location a specified number of times
Zone method Items are grouped by zones to make counting more efficient
