| Popis: | While the literature primarily addresses MPS design from the manufacturer's perspective, this research considers MPS policy design in a two-stage rolling schedule environment with a particular focus on the policy governing schedule flexibility in the non-frozen time interval (i.e. liquid versus slushy orders). Using computer simulation, we experimentally evaluate the impact of four MPS design factors (non-frozen interval policy, planning horizon length, frozen interval length and re-planning frequency) and four environmental factors (natural order cycle length, vendor flexibility, demand range and demand lumpiness) on MPS schedule cost and instability. The experimental design considers the often-conflicting impact of MPS policy on the channel members by capturing performance metrics at the manufacturer, vendor and system level. The research findings indicate that moving from a liquid to a slushy non-interval strategy increases the manufacturer's costs, but may result in an even greater cost reduction for ... |
