A Multi-Criteria Decision Framework for Inventory

Management

Abstract Inventory management is a process / practice that every company undertakes. Most companies fail to apply a comprehensive set of criteria to rank their products / items. The criteria are too few or subjective in nature. Inventory is required to stay in business and meet customer needs. If it is not done right it causes deterioration in customer service and could lead to damages to both customer and supplier relations and eventually cause business breakdown. A simple multi-criteria driven holistic framework developed by industry input is critical to the success of inventory management. An inventory management framework using FIVE main- criteria categories (revenue, customer service, profitability, growth, risk), 21 (between 3 and 6 in each category) metrics and 4 ranks (A, B, C, D) is presented in this paper to assist companies with their inventory management process. The framework that is presented has been developed through literature review, surveys, interviews and focus

groups with several industry owners, inventory managers and business managers. The interaction with companies led to a set of THREE critical questions:

1.Is there a comprehensive inventory managementframework?

2.What inventory metrics should be tracked or monitored on a routine basis?

3.How do implement a multi-criteria inventory classification?

This paper is an attempt to answer these critical questions and provide a framework that is developed by bringing together existing literature available and input/findings from industry executives in the area of inventory management.

Key words: Inventory, Inventory Management, Inventory Classification, Inventory Ranking, Multi-Criteria Inventory Management.

1.INTRODUCTION

Inventory is a critical asset and resource that is handled extensively by most businesses. Managing inventory effectively has been something that every company strives for; however, it is also an area where companies often have failed and still continue to fail. Companies handle multiple items / products but treat all items equally because the business objective is to serve the customer. As a result they end up having excess inventory of the wrong items. As businesses expand there are so many products in inventory and the company ends up having more stocking inventory for each product or end up investing more in the wrong inventory. Item/inventory stratification is the process of ranking items based on relevant factors applicable to the business environment. According to Pradip Kumar Krishnadevarajan, Gunasekaran S., Lawrence F.B. and Rao B (2015) and Pradip Kumar Krishnadevarajan, S Balasubramanian and N Kannan (2015) you should classify items into a certain number of categories (typically less than five) so that managing them day-to-day does not become unwieldy. This is especially needed when handling several hundreds or

thousands of items, where identifying and focusing on the most critical items is of utmost importance to allow resources to be used effectively and efficiently. This stratification process is typically done at a physical location level (at branches or distribution centers) across the entire company, although it could be applied at higher levels (regions or the entire company). The item stratification process is usually not well-defined or given due importance, and it often gets over-simplified. The inventory stratification process should address several metrics and a multi-criteria approach must be taken for effective inventory management. This paper attempts to present a comprehensive framework that could assist companies in choosing the right set of metrics to perform inventory ranking for their business.

2.FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT

The process of inventory classification actually begins by developing or choosing a framework that suits the company’s vision and goals. The development process of the proposed inventory framework process took place in two stages. The first stage was to look at existing literature to understand the different factors/criteria that are being used for inventory evaluation by various industries/businesses. The second stage was interaction with companies to gather input, understand metrics used and challenges faced in executing the inventory classification process.

2.1.Literature Review

(Pareto, 1906) observed that about 20% of the population of a country has about 80% of its wealth (also known as the 80-20 rule). This rule holds true for items sold by a firm: about 20% of items accou nt for about 80% of a firm’s revenue.

(Flores and Whybark, 1987) present an inventory ranking model driven by criticality and dollar-usage. The first stage is for the users to rank the items based on criticality, the second stage ranks items based on dollar/currency usage. Based on usage, items are ranked as A, B or C.

(Flores, Olson and Dorai, 1992) propose the use of AHP as a means for decision makers to custom design a formula reflecting the relative importance of each unit of inventory item based on a weighted value of the criteria utilized. The factors applied are –total annual usage (quantity), average unit cost (currency), annual usage (currency), lead time and criticality. They also present a reclassification model based on the following factors and weights: criticality (42%), followed by lead time (41%), annual dollar usage (9.2%), and average unit cost (7.8%).

(Schreibfeder, 2005) recommend a combination model using cost of goods sold (procurement price from supplier), number of transactions (orders or hits), and profitability (gross margin).

(Lawrence, Gunasekaran and Krishnadevarajan, 2009) state that best practices in item stratification are based on multiple factors such as sales, logistics (hits), and profitability (gross margin currency or percentage, or gross margin return on inventory investment [GMROII]) that help to attain the optimal solution in most cases. Companies, however, can include more factors specific to their business environment, such as lead time, sense of urgency, product dependency, criticality, product life cycle and logistics costs. They also present a model to classify items based on demand pattern. A demand stability index (DSI) is established using three criteria – demand frequency or usage frequency, demand size and demand variability.

(Pradip Kumar Krishnadevarajan, Gunasekaran, Lawrence and Rao, 2013) rank items into 4 categories (High, medium-plus, medium-minus, low) for risk management and price sensitivity. Ranking is based on unit cost of the item. Items are also ranked based on annual usage (currency), hits, gross margin (currency) and gross margin (percentage). The final ranks are Critical (A & B items), important (C items) and non-critical (D items).

(Dhoka and Choudary, 2013) classify items based on demand predictability (XYZ Analysis). Items which have uniform demand are ranked as X, varying demand as Y, and abnormal demand as Z.

(Hatefi, Torabi and Bagheri, 2014) present a modified linear optimization method that enables inventory managers to classify a number of inventory items in the presence of both qualitative and quantitative criteria without any subjectivity. The four factors used are ADU (Annual dollar usage), CF (critical factor –very critical [VC], moderately critical [MC] or non-critical [NC]), AUC (Average unit cost) and LT (Lead Time). Items are ranked as A, B, or C.

(Xue, 2014) connects the characteristics of materials supply and the relationship between parts and production, a classification model based on materials attributes. The several criteria applied in the decision tree model are: Parts usage rate, carrying- holding-possession costs, ordering-purchase costs, shortage cost, and delivery a bility.

(?ari?, ?imunovi?, Pezer and ?imunovi?, 2014) present a research on inve ntory ABC classification using various multi-criteria methods (AHP) method and cluster analysis) and neural networks. The model uses 4 criteria –Annual cost, Criticality, Lead Time 1 and Lead Time 2.

(Kumar, Rajan and Balan, 2014) rank items based on their cost in bill of materials (ABC ranking). “A” items -70% higher value of items of bill of material, “B” items –20% Medium value of items of Bill of material and “C” items – 10% Lower value of items of Bill of material. They also determine vital, essential, and desirable components required for assembly (VED analysis).

(Sarmah and Moharana, 2015) present a model that has 5 criteria – consumption rate, unit price, replenishment lead time, commonality and criticality.

(Pradip Kumar Krishnadevarajan, Balasubramanian, and Kannan, 2015) present a strategic business stratification framework based on: suppliers, product, demand, space, service, market, customer and people.

(Pradip Kumar Krishnadevarajan, Vignesh, Balasubramanian and Kannan, 2015) present a framework for supplier classification based on several categories: convenience, customer service, profitability (financial), growth, innovation, inventory,

quality and risk. A similar framework can be extended based on the supplier classification for items or products.

2.2.Industry Feedback

Interaction with companies was performed through surveys, interviews and focus groups with several industry owners, inventory/purchasing managers and business managers. The objective was to get an idea of the metrics being utilized for inventory classification, challenges faced, inventory framework deployed and the effectiveness of their current inventory performance management processes. Key findings from the industry interaction were the following:

?Lack of a inventory management framework. Understanding where the process began and where it ended was the key challenge. Who should take ownership of this process in the company? Often, data was missing or currently not captured in the system in-order to create various metrics to help with inventory management. Internally, all companies did not have a goal or objective regarding what they would like to achieve with the inventory management process. No concrete data driven discussions or goal setting took place. Most of the inventory ranking was based on experience.

?What to track? Companies either tracked too many metrics or did not track anything. Even if they tracked too many metrics most of them were subjective and anecdotal. They lacked a significant number of quantitative metrics to act on something meaningful. Companies wanted a set of metrics they could choose from and then set a process in place to capture the relevant data to compute those metrics. If multiple metrics are used to track inventory performance, is there a methodology to combine various metrics to develop a single rank (ease of decision making) for each item/product?

?Reporting and Scorecards: The next challenge was that even if a few companies

had the required data and were able to compute the metrics they did not have an effective way of reporting this information back to the purchasing team or anyone who influenced inventory decision. They lacked reporting tools and templates for the performance metrics.

?Continuous Improvement: The steps that need to be established to continually improve the inventory management process at the company did not exist. Several companies had gone down the path of implementing a version of the inventory management but could not sustain the same due to lack of accountability/ownership, failing to change the metrics when the industry dynamics changed, and execution challenges.

The focus of this paper is to propose a simple, yet holistic framework, list of metrics to track and a multi-criteria ranking method for inventory management.

3.INVENTORY MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK

The approach used to layout an inventory framework is bridging the gap between what was seen in the literature review and the feedback from industry. The key objectives in the framework development were the following:

?Metrics should be quantitative (objective and data driven). There will be only a few qualitative metrics.

?The framework should be holistic and comprehensive at the same time easy understand.

?Scalability and flexibility of the framework is important as companies adopt it into their inventory management process.

?Apply a multi-criteria approach but provide the ability to get one single final

Floyd D. Hedrick, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. Editor: Jeannette Budding, Communications Manager National Association of Purchasing Management Inventory management Abstract Inventory management, or inventory control, is an attempt to balance inventory needs and requirements with the need to minimize costs resulting from obtaining and holding inventory. There are several schools of thought that view inventory and its function differently. These will be addressed later, but first we present a foundation to facilitate the reader's understanding of inventory and its function Inventory management is inventory management in short .As an important inventory of liquid assets, its existence is bound to take up a lot of liquidity. In general, inventories of industrial enterprises accounted for about 30% of the total assets of commercial circulation enterprises is even higher, the management of utilization is directly related to the occupation of the level of corporate funds and asset efficiency. Therefore, a business to maintain high profitability, should be attached great importance to inventory management. Inventory management at different levels, the company's average occupancy level of funding is a big difference. Through the implementation of proper inventory management methods to reduce the level of the average amount of funds used to improve the inventory turnover rate and total assets, will ultimately improve the economic efficiency of enterprises. Keyword:Inventory;Management ChapterⅠ Inventory Definition Inventory is a quantity or store of goods that is held for some purpose or use (the term may also be used as a verb, meaning to take inventory or to count all goods held in inventory). Inventory may be kept "in-house," meaning on the premises or nearby for immediate use; or it may be held in a distant warehouse or distribution center for future use.

An Analysis of Working Capital Management Results Across Industries Greg Filbeck. Schweser Study Program Thomas M. Krueger. University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Abstract Firms are able to reduce financing costs and/or increase the funds available for expansion by minimizing the amount of funds tied up in current assets. We provide insights into the performance of surveyed firms across key components of working capital management by using the CFO magazine’s annual Working Capital Management Survey. We discover that significant differences exist between industries in working capital measures across time. In addition. we discover that these measures for working capital change significantly within industries across time. Introduction The importance of efficient working capital management is indisputable. Working capital is the difference between resources in cash or readily convertible into cash (Current Assets) and organizational commitments for which cash will soon be required (Current Liabilities). The objective of working capital management is to maintain the optimum balance of each of the working capital components. Business viability relies on the ability to effectively manage receivables. inventory. and payables. Firms are able to reduce financing costs and/or increase the funds available for expansion by minimizing the amount of funds tied up in current assets. Much managerial effort is expended in bringing non-optimal levels of current assets and liabilities back toward optimal levels. An optimal level would be one in which a balance is achieved between risk and efficiency. A recent example of business attempting to maximize working capital management is the recurrent attention being given to the application of Six Sigma? methodology. Six Sigma? methodologies help companies measure and ensure quality in all areas of the enterprise. When used to identify and rectify discrepancies. inefficiencies and erroneous transactions in the financial supply chain. Six Sigma? reduces Days Sales Outstanding (DSO). accelerates the payment cycle. improves customer satisfaction and reduces the necessary amount and cost of working capital needs. There appear to be many success stories. including Jennifer Towne’s (2002) report of a 15 percent decrease in days that sales are outstanding. resulting in an increased cash flow of approximately $2 million at Thibodaux Regional Medical Center. Furthermore. bad debts declined from $3.4 million to $600.000. However. Waxer’s (2003) study of multiple firms employing Six Sigma? finds that it is really a “get rich slow” technique with a rate of return hovering in the 1.2 – 4.5 percent range. Even in a business using Six Sigma? methodology. an “optimal” level of working capital management needs to be identified. Even in a business using Six Sigma? methodology. an “optimal” level of working capital management needs to be identified. Industry factors may impact firm

本科毕业论文(设计) 外文翻译 原文: Multi-echelon inventory management in supply chains Historically, the echelons of the supply chain, warehouse, distributors, retailers, etc., have been managed independently, buffered by large inventories. Increasing competitive pressures and market globalization are forcing firms to develop supply chains that can quickly respond to customer needs. To remain competitive and decrease inventory, these firms must use multi-echelon inventory management interactively, while reducing operating costs and improving customer service. Supply chain management (SCM) is an integrative approach for planning and control of materials and information flows with suppliers and customers, as well as between different functions within a company. This area has drawn considerable attention in recent years and is seen as a tool that provides competitive power .SCM is a set of approaches to integrate suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, and stores efficiently, so that merchandise is produced and distributed at right quantities, to the right locations and at the right time, in order to minimize system-wide costs while satisfying service-level requirements .So the supply chain consists of various members or stages. A supply chain is a dynamic, stochastic, and complex system that might involve hundreds of participants. Inventory usually represents from 20 to 60 per cent of the total assets of manufacturing firms. Therefore, inventory management policies prove critical in determining the profit of such firms. Inventory management is, to a greater extent, relevant when a whole supply chain (SC), namely a network of procurement, transformation, and delivering firms, is considered. Inventory management is indeed a major issue in SCM, i.e. an approach that addresses SC issues under an integrated perspective.

管理原则 也许在那些关于管理者这门学科的书中有许多关于管理的定义。许多定义是相对扼要和简单化的。一位早期的学者将它定义为“清楚地知道你想让人们去做什么,然后看着他们以最好最廉价的方式去完成它”。管理实际上是一个非常复杂的过程——远远比那些定义让我们知道的要复杂得多。因此,我们要建立一种管理的定义,从而能更好地了解这过程的实质。 管理是在一定的环境条件下通过对人员技术和资金等资源的利用和协调去设立和完成某一个组织目标的过程。这个过程有若干个核心包括计划和决策,组织,人员,领导,管理和控制。所有从事于这些工作的负责人在更大或更小的程度上都依赖于他们所承担的特殊的责任。当谈论管理的定义时,我们不应该忽略管理的原则。 管理的最基本原则在文明诞生时就存在了。当人们第一次开始群居生活和首次提高他们的生活质量时它就存在了。2500年前,巴比伦国王尼布甲尼撒二世决定把他的沙漠王国变成绿洲去取悦他的妻子。在公元前6世纪,尼布甲尼撒二世耗尽了国家财政部的金钱,雇佣劳动者和技术人员利用有限的资源建造一个宫殿,建造了完善的管网系统,把当地河流的水输送到皇宫里。当工程完成后,他在平台上种植漂亮稀有的花草树木。巴比伦的空中花园改变了这座城市。 尼布甲尼撒二世制定了一个目标。他要把沙漠中的主要城市变成绿洲。他利用和协调人员,技术和金钱去完成这一目标。他从王室金库中获得的资金去雇佣民工和技师并从附近地区购买材料。他在这种只能提供原始水管装置,建筑技术以及只能从茫茫沙漠中取得有限的材料的环境下完成了目标。最终,每个人在这个工程商所付出的努力创造了世界七大奇观之一。 2500年前,人们完成某项巨大的任务所运用的管理过程与如今运用的基本原理相似,管理者在执行这个过程是将它分成了5个部分。 这篇文章的主旨在于表达有关管理过程的一些观点和如何将它运用到我们所面临的不同的情况中去。你们所要学习的管理原则是指指导管理者的宗旨,原则或者是组织规范。他们会提供一个行动框架,为了有效的使用他们,一个人必须培养和使用技能的决策。理智决策是识别某个问题或机会,找到可行的方法去处理它并选择最好的方法的过程。因此,决策是最重要的管理活动。管理者必须决定去实施管理的每个功能以及每种情况所需要采取的相应的原则。 在这一点上,我们对于管理必须有两点最基本的理解。首先,在特定的环境下运用各种资源设立完成目标。第二,为了确保组织的成功,组织者必须满足他的技术要求,行政要求和责任制度。尽管这听起来很简单,但这两个原则却经过了几个世纪的发展才形成的。之后将要提到的所有原则都是随着时间的推移从各种来源中汲取的。一些原则来源于各人的直觉,然而其他的则反映了组织中那些成功企业家,著名商业巨子或者是富有创新精神的工作者的经验。直到十九世纪,直觉和经验仍是管理原则的基本来源 尽管本能和直觉曾经是商业管理的基础,但现在创业者创立新的企业经常以他们的直觉进行管理。在十九世纪70年代至80年代的电脑产业中,对技术很精通,但对管理知之甚少的企业家成立了数以百计的硬件和软件公司,一些存活下来,更多的则不是。许多公司开始发展得好是得益于创

Researchers have particularly offered studies analyzing investments, capital structure, dividends or company valuation, among other topics. But the investment that firms make in short-term assets, and the resources used with maturities of under one year, represent the main share of items on a firm’s balance sheet. In fact, in our sample the current assets of small and medium-sized Spanish firms represent 69.48 percent of their assets, and at the same time their current liabilities represent more than 52.82 percent of their liabilities. Working capital management is important because of its effects on the firm’s profitability and risk, and consequently its value (Smith, 1980). On the one hand, maintaining high inventory levels reduces the cost of possible interruptions in the production process, or of loss of business due to the scarcity of products, reduces

A FIELD STUDY:SMALL MANUFACTURING COMPANIES In this section, the implementation of the proposed Integrated ABC-EVA System at two small manufacturing companies is presented. The managers of the companies wished for their company names to remain anonymous. T herefore, they will be referred to as “Company X” and “Company Y” from here on. Prior to the field study, both companies were using traditional costing systems. The overhead was allocated to product lines based on direct labor hours. In both companies, managers felt that their traditional costing systems were not able to provide reliable cost information. 1 Company X Company X, located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was a small manufacturing company with approximately 30 employees. Company X’s main products l ines were Overlays、Membranes、Laser、Roll Labels and N’Caps. In the mid 1990’s, a group of investors purchased the company from the previous owner-manager who had retired. At the time of the study, the company was managed by its former vice-president, who was supported by a three-person management group. Investors were primarily concerned with financial performance rather than daily decision-making. The management group was very eager to participate in the field study for two reasons. First, the management was under pressure from their new investors who were not satisfied with the current return from existing product lines; Second, management was trying to identify the most lucrative product line in order to initiate a marketing campaign with the biggest impact on overall profits. 2 Company Y Company Y, also located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was owned and managed by three owner-managers who bought the company from a large corporation in the mid 1990’s, Company Y employed approximately 40 people. The majority of this compa ny’s business was in the area of manufacturing electrical devices and their main product lines were Motors and Motor Parts、Breakers、and Control Parts. Company Y sold its products in the domestic market as well as abroad. A portion of the company’s output was sold directly to end-users, while the remainder was sold with the help of independent distributors. The management of Company Y was

Research in International Business and Finance 32 (2014): 36-49. 原文 The impact of working capital management on firm profitability in different business cycles: Evidence from Finland 1. Introduction This paper investigates the effect of the business cycle on the link between working capital, the difference between current assets and current liabilities, and corporate performance. Efficient working capital management is recognized as an important aspect of financial management practices in all organizational forms. In acknowledgement of this importance, the CFO Magazine publishes an annual study of corporate working capital management performance in many countries. The extensive literature indicates that it impacts directly on corporate liquidity ( Kim et al., 1998 and Opler et al., 1999), profitability (e.g., Shin and Soenen, 1998, Deloof, 2003, Lazaridis and Tryfonidis, 2006 and Ukaegbu, 2014), and solvency (e.g.,Berryman, 1983 and Peel and Wilson, 1994). It is reasonable to assume that economy-wide fluctuations exogenous to the operations of the firm play an important role in the demand for firms’ products and any financing decision. Korajczyk and Levy (2003), for instance, suggest that firms time debt issuance based on economic conditions. Also, given that retained earnings are a significant component of working capital, business cycles can be said to affect all enterprises financing source through its effect on economic growth and sales. For example, when company sales weaken it engenders earning declines, thereby, affecting an important source of working capital. The recent global economic downturn with crimping consumer demand is an excellent example of this. The crisis,

二、正文 目前,在库存管理中常用的方法有两种类型,一种是传统的库存管理方法,另一种是现代的库存管理方法。对于传统的库存管理方法,主要有定量订购与定期订购方法、ABC库存控制方法和经济订货批量等。对于现代库存控制方法,主要有MRP与MRPn库存控制方法、企业资源计划(ERP)和及时生产(JIT)库存控制方法等。 (一)、定量订货法 定量订货法是指当库存量下降到预定的最低库存量(订货点)时,按规定进行订货补充的一种库存控制方法。当库存量下降到订货点时,即按预先确定的订货量发出订单,经过订货期、交货周期,库存量继续下降,到达安全库存量时,收到订货,库存水平回升。采用定量订货方式必须预先确定订货点和订货量(见图1)。图1 定量定货法原理 其中:Q——批量或订货量,T——周转期,S——安全库存 1. 订货点的确定 通常订货点的确定主要取决于需求率和订货交货周期这两个因素。在需求为固定、均匀和订货交货期不变的情况下,订货点由以下公式确定: 订货点 = 平均交货期全年需求量 / 365 + 安全库存量(1)

The Contractor's Role in Building Cost Reduction After Design Author:Waddle,Todd W. Nationality:UK Derivation:Cost Engineering; Feb2008, Vol. 50 Issue 2, p14-21 It has become evident from recent news articles that inflationary pressures and increased construction activity are causing many building projects to come in well over owner's budgets. This trend has increased dramatically over the past few years, as much of the construction industry has been impacted by an unprecedented increase in the cost of construction. The historical rate of increase in construction cost has been under five percent per year, as reported by the Engineering News Record. Over the last few years, the industry has seen a significant increase from historical escalation rates, up to 10-15 percent per year in many regions of the US. These increases have been caused by a variety of factors, including the following. ? Shortage of steel resulting from rapid growth in China. ? Demand for materials in the US resulting from increased hur ricane damage. ? Rising oil prices leading to higher manufacturing and transportation cost. ? Rising labor cost because of increased construction activity . To be successful in having over budget projects awarded, the building contractor has had to take a proactive role in working with owners and design teams to reduce project cost to amounts that owners are able to award. This cost reduction is normally accomplished through the following methods. ? value engineering; ? scope reduction; Value Engineering Value engineering (VE) has been defined as a systematic method to improve the value of goods and services by using an examination of function. Value, as defined, is the ratio of function to cost. Value can therefore be increased by either improving the function or reducing the cost.
