Abstract:
In this study, I examined a two-level supply chain with two-way information exchange in which both the manufacturer and the retailer will be informed of each other’s stock.In order to make use of this type of information exchange, the manufacturer and the retaile modify their single-level base-stock policy to a two-level, state-dependent base-stock policy.Later, I exerted the lost sale policy. And finally, I investigated the impact of this type of information exchange on the general chain criteria. Then, I point out the advantages of this method.
Applying the mentioned method reduces the total cost of system as well as decreasing the average amount of manufacturer’s inventory along with improving the waiting time of walk-in customers. Consequently, we improve most system criteria such as cost and waiting time by utilizing lost sale policy
