Abstract

In modern enterprises, the problem of balancing supply and demand becomes important, and the supply chain management (SCM) becomes the focus of attention. Under on-demand SCM, it is important to reduce the risk of supply chain over/under-stocking in real time. To hedge the risks, the equation of flow control is re-considered, and a dynamic logic control is introduced. For the logistics of PC products, this paper develops a look-ahead control logic based on a progressive curve. For simplicity, it is assumed that the demand (output) is uncontrollable (given), and the supply (input) is controllable (manageable) on the basis of base-inventory only. First, the moving base-inventory is obtained from the formulation of a Newsboy problem. Next, this indicator is checked by a cumulative control chart in quality control, and supply action (input) is carried out timely, within the upper limit. In this study, this method is applied to the warehouse company A, and a cumulative inventory reduction of approximately 42% is attained.
