INTERACTIVE EFFECT OF FIXED TIME ORDER STRATEGIES WITHIN A SUPPLY CHAIN ON ACTUAL IN-STOCK PROBABILITIES

This report mainly deals with the interactive effect of different in-stock probabilities used by every individual in a supply chain. Based on a simulation for 10,000 weeks, the effects of varying in-stock probabilities are observed. Based on these observations, an individual in a supply chain can take counter measures in order to avoid stock out chances hence maintaining profits.
