- Abstract
- We address the concept of an integrated inventory allocation and shipping model for a manufacturer with limited production capacity and multiple types of retailers with different backorder/waiting and delivery costs. The problem is to decide how to allocate and deliver produced items when the total retailer demand exceeds the production capacity, so that total retailer backorder and delivery costs are minimized. Our analytical model provides optimal allocation and shipping policies from the manufacturer's viewpoint. We also investigate the allocation strategy of a manufacturer competing with other retailers to directly sell to end consumers. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
