Pull Systems with Advance Demand Information
Abstract
This paper investigates the benefits of integrating advance demand information (ADI) with pull-kanban type production and inventory control systems (PICS). Since efficient analytical models for performance evaluation studies of these systems are unavailable, we use simulation experiments for the study. In particular, we investigate the impact of several PICS design parameters such as kanban card limits, target finished goods inventory levels, amount of demand information available, and the quality of ADI on performance measures such as system throughput, inventory holding costs and customer service levels. Our study shows that in many situations, integrating ADI with pull systems provides opportunities for efficiencies that might be significantly greater that that available using pull systems alone. Further more, we show that the performance of systems operating under pull-type PICS with ADI could be fairly robust to the quality of information being shared.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
