An Analysis of SERVMART Inventory Control Policies.

Abstract

An investigation is made of possible inventory control policies for Navy supply system SERVMARTS (Self Service Retail Stores). Three mathematical models of the system are developed and a comparison of the solutions of these models with three current inventory control methods as applied to SERVMART demand data is presented. Based on this comparison, a stochastic, lost sales model is recommended and procedures for its implementation are discussed. (Author)
