  5. 8. Design and integration aspects of Vendor Managed Inventory systems

    Author : Mikael Ståhl Elvander; Teknisk logistik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This study looks into a concept of Supply Chain Management that has received a lot of interest in both industry and academia, Vendor Managed Inventory, a concept that changes the traditional order-to-delivery process from having a customer placing orders to a supplier, to instead having the supplier be responsible for placing orders and keeping customer inventory levels within agreed limits. Most previous VMI research has been focusing on retail and grocery supply chains, and has been devoted to comparing the traditional order-todelivery process with the VMI process. READ MORE
