Abstract

The synchronization and coordination of material flows in the assembly system is much more important and complex. To analyze how to coordinate the material flows for the assembly supply chain, we consider an assembly system with two component-suppliers and one manufacturer, under stochastic finished product demand. Two replenishment policies are proposed and analyzed. One is the decentralized replenishment policy without horizontal coordination, and the other is the coordinated replenishment policy with horizontal coordination. Results show that there is a unique optimal solution to minimize the supply chain cost, and coordination replenishment policy can efficiently deduce supply chain cost due to the horizontal coordination.
