Distribution-Independent Inventory Approach under Multiple Service Level Targets

摘要

A system and method are disclosed for an inventory planner that generates an inventory policy using any form of demand distributions, non-linear cost functions and/or multiple target measures of service levels, while taking into account a supply order lead time, such as, for example, a static or stochastic supply order lead time. The inventory policy generated by the inventory planner comprises an optimal and reproducible solution to one or more supply chain planning problems.
