In this article, a joint economic-lot-size model for a special case where a vendor produces to order for a purchaser on a lot-for-lot basis under deterministic conditions is developed.
Abstract
In a typical purchasing situation, the issues of price, lot sizing, etc, usually are settled through negotiations between the purchaser and the vendor Depending on the existing balance of power, the end result of such a bargaining process may be a near-optimal or optimal ordering policy for one of the parties (placing the other in a position of significant disadvantage) or, sometimes, inoptimal policies for both parties This paper develops a joint economic-lot-size model for a special case where a vendor produces to order for a purchaser on a lot-for-lot basis under deterministic conditions The focus of this model is the joint total relevant cost It is shown that a jointly optimal ordering policy, together with an appropriate price adjustment, can be beneficial economically for both parties or, at the least, does not place either at a disadvantage

Hybrid lot-size coordination in a single-manufacturer-multiple-retailer system

TL;DR: In this paper, a group of retailers propose compensatory payment to the manufacturer according to the degree of the manufacturer's lot-size relaxation, from each participant's viewpoint, an individual optimisation problem can be formulated from this relaxation model.

An integrated production-inventory model with backorder and lot for lot policy

TL;DR: In this article, an inventory model for two-stage supply chain with single vendor and single buyer is investigated, where shortage as a backorder is allowed for the buyer and the vendor makes the production set up every time the buyer places an order and supplies on a lot for lot basis.

Supply Chain Coordination Mechanism Logistics Cost Optimization Analysis

TL;DR: In this article, two coordination mechanisms, traditional supply chain and vendor-managed inventory, are analyzed on their logistics cost optimization capabilities under the centralized and decentralized decision-making conditions, and the conclusions are that the logistics costs are the same under centralized decision making; vendor-managed inventory coordination mechanism is better than traditional Supply Chain coordination mechanism under the decentralized decision making.

The Classical Economic Order Quantity Formula

TL;DR: In this paper, a stochastic version of the classical economic lot size model is developed, which yields the traditional square root formula where the constant demand term is replaced by mean demand.
