Joint demand fulfillment probability in a multi-item inventory system with independent order-up-to policies

Article Abstract:

Numerical results of a periodic-review model for joint demand fulfillment probability in a multi-item inventory system indicated that even if optimal combination order-up-to levels relies on the relation of item demands, a heuristic which disregards the connection is extensively quite effective, given that demand averages and variances are properly accounted for. One advantage of the model is that only the correlations of aggregated item demands in a time is needed, instead of individual orders.
