| Summary: | Effective and efficient supply chain management is essential for domestic and global organizations to compete successfully in the international market. Superior inventory control policies and product distribution strategies along with advanced information technology enable an organization to collaborate distribution and allocation of inventory to gain a competitive advantage in the world market. Our research establishes the strategic resource allocation model to capture and encapsulate the complexity of the modern global supply chain management problem. A mathematical model was constructed to depict the stochastic, multiple-period, two-echelon inventory with the many-to-many demand-supplier network problem. The model simultaneously constitutes the uncertainties of inventory control and transportation parameters as well as the varying price factors. A genetic algorithm (GA) was applied to derive optimal solutions through a two-stage optimization process. Practical examples and solutions from three sourcing strategies (single sourcing, multiple sourcing, and dedicated system) were included to illustrate the GA based solution procedure. Our model can be utilized as a collaborative supply chain strategic planning tool to efficiently determine the appropriate inventory allocation and a dynamic decision making process to effectively manage the distribution plan. | |
