Dow’s supply chain complexity is high due to many factors. Implementation of inventory management theory frequently devolves into using single-echelon approximations. Dual-role warehouses and multi-echelon inventory cause many of these problems. Optimal policies are unknown, and current heuristics do not provide satisfactory solutions to planners. Scheduling behavior is also assumed and not incorporated. This work highlights gaps between supply chain practice and inventory management theory.
Join us on 7/28 at 11 am as Kyle Harshbarger presents on Dual-Role Warehouses and Multi-Echelon Inventory at Dow.
The presentation will be attended in person or virtually through zoom.
