MPC strategy is used for deriving the control law for replenishment orders. Cost functions are formulated so as to minimise the holding and shortage costs of the inventory and maximising the profit. Model predictive control (MPC) is well known for its ability in constraint handling and the constraint on the input, the replenishment orders can be handled by MPC. The demand generally shows a trend and can be predicted from past few samples. The objectives from such systems are, demand is met and some desired or minimum stock is left in the inventory depending upon the nature of the goods. An illustrative case study is provided.ĭynamics of inventory systems involve, stock filling by issuing orders which are fulfilled after some time called lead time and a time-varying demand which is not known a priori. We demonstrate that the postulated feedback controller effectively stabilizes the supply chain dynamics, while minimizing costs.
#OVERLOOP TYING SHOES UPDATE#
A moving horizon approach is used to periodically update decisions (i.e., production, transportation, storage, and respective environmental conditions) based on fed-back information. In this paper we demonstrate a novel closed-loop, feedback-based control framework that employs real-time product quality measurements for optimal supply chain management. However, quality, as a function of time and environmental conditions (i.e., temperature, humidity, light, etc.), is difficult to model accurately resulting in unpredicted inventory spoilage.
For industries handling highly perishable inventory (e.g, fresh produce, vaccines, biologics) controlling product quality throughout the multiple echelons of the supply chain is critical to minimize inventory waste and satisfy consumer quality requirements.
Supply chain networks are dynamical systems with particular control challenges that stem from inventory deterioration and external disturbances (i.e., unanticipated consumer demand, time delays, etc.).
