This book examines inventory and production strategies that can reduce unexpected breakdown costs. It highlights different EPQ models to deal with such problems, providing optimal value derivations for decision variables. It provides proofs for concavity or convexity of objective functions. The chapters also include numerical examples for all the developed mathematical models. Imperfect Inventory Systems: Inventory and Production Management and Breakdown should be useful for professionals working on supply chains, but also researchers in operations research and inventory management.

In today’s manufacturing environment, managing inventories is one of the basic concerns of enterprises dealing with materials according to their activities. This book introduces and examines important production strategies such as scrap strategy and rework strategy under stochastic conditions that contribute to the reduction of unexpected costs. In a step-by-step manner, it presents stochastic imperfect inventory models, inventory models involving rework processes or breakdowns, as well as their maintenance. Also, different aspects of uncertainty are provided in multiple chapters of this book.One of the primary questions answered in this book is: What is the optimal production quantity when there is a failure in the production line? To answer the question, the problem is first modelled mathematically, then the concavity or convexity of the objective function is proved and finally the optimal production quantity of the production system is determined using suitable solution methods.The book is valuable for researchers in operations research and inventory management and professionals working with supply chains.

This book examines the different motivational policies used for inventory management. In many competitive markets, sellers use motivational policies to encourage the customers to buy more and these kinds of strategies are used as competitive tools. This book brings together all the motivational policies for lot sizing decisions and offers a useful guide for inventory control. Each chapter applies deterministic inventory models such as economic order quantity (EOQ) and economic production quantity (EPQ), but also stochastic models for the motivational policy covered. The book begins exploring quantity discounts such as all-unit and incremental discounts. It then looks at delayed payment or trade credit policies that are applied by many suppliers and/or wholesalers to increase their sales. The motivational policies covered in the following chapters are dedicated to advance payment/prepayment schemes and also special sales offered by retailers to increase sales levels or decrease the inventory level. Finally the book concludes with a review of announced price increases, which persuades customers to buy a product at the current price, rather than paying more for it in the future. Inventory Control Models with Motivational Policies should be useful for professionals working on supply chains, but also researchers in operations research and inventory management.

This book provides a general overview of the use of optimisation techniques in decision-making concerning inventory problems, supply chain management, production and manufacturing management, problems related to vendor selection, transportation and logistics, and the use of fuzzy or interval techniques (uncertainty) in the aforementioned areas. It offers helpful guidance on how to decide which strategies to apply in different areas of real-world problems, especially highlighting latest advancements in supply chain management, inventory control, environmental planning, and optimisation. All authors have extensive research experience in practical decision-making scenarios which serves as the foundation for contributing chapters. The book thus assists scientists, upcoming researchers, and businesspeople in understanding optimisation techniques for finding the optimal answer to decision-making problems.
