发明名称 METHODS AND SYSTEMS OF MAINTAINING AN INVENTORY LEVEL IN A PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT
摘要 A method of maintaining an inventory level of a consumable in a production environment may include monitoring an inventory position associated with a consumable in a production environment, and, based on the monitoring, identifying a plurality of window sets. Each window set may include a plurality of windows, and each window may include a portion of a historic demand distribution associated with the consumable and corresponds to a total inventory management cost. The method may also include selecting, from the plurality of window sets, the window set having the window corresponding to a lowest total inventory management cost. A lower inventory threshold level for the consumable and an upper inventory threshold level for the consumable may be automatically determined. An amount of the consumable may be ordered if the monitored inventory position is less than the lower inventory threshold level.
