摘要
For a miltary distribution system with a fixed investment budget, trade-off curves between two aggregate variables were developed: reordering work load and customer service. The curves showed that reallocating investment funds from safety stocks to cycle stocks would cut reordering work load by 20 percent, with no impact on customer service. Implementation of this idea yielded annual cost savings of 2 million.
