Tiivistelmä: | A single product, single stage Material Requirements Planning (MRP) model is developed which incorporates learning curve behavior into conventional MRP logic. A series of experiments examine systematically the impact of mean inventory level of various combinations of environmental conditions and managerial policies. The research demonstrates that substantial reduction in mean inventory levels can be realized in low yield environments if learning is properly included in the order release logic. This finding proves to be robust with respect to modest errors in the estimation of the learning rate. |
