Determining Safety Stock for an Omni-Channel Environment
The purpose of this article is to determine the safety stock for an omni-channel environment. The “Square Root Law” (for centralization of storage facilities) was proposed to combine the safety stock for both online and offline channels. A simulation study was conducted using a spreadsheet program and three scenarios were created based on review time, lead time and safety factor. This was based on the mean demand and standard deviation of the product's demand distribution. The study found that the sum of lead time and review time are significant in determining the amount of safety stock, and demand variability is a crucial determinant for safety stock. Recommendations are provided as guidelines for lowering the amount of safety stock in omni-channel environment.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Information Systems and Supply Chain Management (IJISSCM) provides a practical and comprehensive forum for exchanging novel research ideas or down-to-earth practices which bridge the latest information technology and supply chain management. IJISSCM encourages submissions on how various information systems improve supply chain management, as well as how the advancement of supply chain management tools affects the information systems growth. The aim of this journal is to bring together the expertise of people who have worked with supply chain management across the world for people in the field of information systems.
