摘要
By inducing the typical inventory control problem - the bullwhip effect, this paper presents vendor managed inventory (VMI) control methods on the basis of traditional methods of inventory management methods, constructs a VMI mathematics model, and analyzes the influence of VMI on inventory cost and channel profit. Finally, a special case is studied to verify that VMI is an effective supply chain strategy that can not only increase channel profit of supplier and customer but also improve full channel coordination, thereby reducing the bullwhip effect.
本文在总结传统库存管理方法的基础上 ,通过引入供应链管理环境下库存管理中的典型问题———长鞭效应 ,介绍了供应商管理用户库存 (vendormanagedinventory ,VMI)的基本思想 ,建立了VMI的数学模型 ,系统地分析了VMI策略对库存总费用以及联合利润的影响 .最后 ,通过一个实例从数据上验证了VMI策略不仅能提高供应商和用户的联合利润 ,还有利于他们达到充分合作 。
