1 Analysis of Vendor Managed Inventory System Element Using ANOVA Method: A Case Study Jitender 1, Sh. Vijay Kumar 2, Parteek 3 1 Research Scholar, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sat Priya Group of Institutions, Rohtak, Haryana 2,3 Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Sat Priya Group of Institutions, Rohtak, Haryana ABSTRACT In Vendor managed inventory a supplier of good,usually the manufacturer, is responsible for optimizing the inventory held by a distributor.vmi requires a communication link-typically electronic data interchange or the internet that provide the supplier with the distributor sales and inventory data it needs to plan inventory and place order. in contrast,under the traditional arrangement the distributor handle those tasks The inventory can be owned by the distributor, or by the supplier. In this paper survey of 20 industries was carried out. On the basis of the mean calculated for different elements of VMI on 0-80 scale, all the elements were analyzed and plotted on a scatter chart, from where most important and less difficult elements were found out. Analysis of the data has done with the help of the XY Scatter Chart which is drawn between importance as abscissa and difficulty as.. After identifying the elements from XY scatter chart, apply the ANOVA analysis on those elements. From the result of the ANOVA analysis, we have checked the value is significant. This study help in finding VMI element which are most important and easy to implement Key words: VMI, Inventory, Anova method, Forecast INTRODUCTION Vendor Managed Inventory simply means the vendor (the Manufacturer) manages the inventory of the distributor. The manufacturer receives electronic messages, usually via EDI, from the distributor. These messages tell the manufacturer various bits of information such as what the distributor has sold and what they have currently in inventory. The manufacturer reviews this information and decides when it is appropriate to generate a Purchase Order. The basic principle of VMI is that the vendor, or supplier, becomes responsible for managing the inventory at the customer s site. In contrast to buyers who often manage a broad portfolio of purchased items, suppliers are usually responsible for a more limited range of products of which they have more specific knowledge, and therefore should be better in forecasting and managing the flow of their products through to the end consumer. Making the supplier responsible for replenishment should result in inventory and logistics costs being reduced throughout the total supply chain. In order for the supplier to be able to manage this inventory, information about inventory levels, expected demand, promotional activities, and product related costs should be made available to the supplier by the buyer. This information enables the supplier to make better replenishment decisions based on total supply chain costs, and prevent local sub-optimization when both players would try to optimize their own profits individually. Early availability of such information enables the supplier to be pro-active, which should result in reduced lead times. Effective implementation of VMI thus requires a cross-functional and inters organizational approach. Accurate and timely demand information needs to be shared between the marketing and supply functions of the buyer as well as with the planning function of the supplier. LITERATURE REVIEW Lee et al. [1997] identified four major causes of the bullwhip effect Demand forecast updating, the rationing gaming, order batching and price variations. Jan Holmstrom [1998] suggests that standard business system solutions, e.g. from SAP R/3, might be adopted 16
2 rather than introducing new problem specific systems solutions for new business requirements. DALE D. ACHABAL [2000] describes the market forecasting and inventory management components of a Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) decision support system and how this system was implemented by a major apparel manufacturer and over 30 of its retail partners. N. C. Simpson [2001] model the order picking function and to explore the role of inventory stock levels in achieving economies of scale across this function in a deterministic demand environment. S. M. Disney [2002] designed a VMI for various different ratios of production adaptation cost and inventory holding cost. A decision support system using causal loop diagrams and difference equations is proposed to determine the optimum design parameters in the vendor managed inventory, automatic pipeline, inventory and order based production control system (VMI-APIOBPCS) by relating it to the gain on demand when setting safety stocks at the distributor. S. M. Disney [2003] modelled three different scenarios a traditional supply chain, an internal consolidation scenario (with batching in the order rule) and the VMI supply chain to investigates the impact of a vendor managed inventory (VMI) strategy upon transportation operations in a supply chain. Hansheng Suo [2004] said that Supply chain inefficiencies can result from incompatible incentives provided by independent decision-makers and also their risk aversion effect. Haifeng, Guo Xiaoyuan [2005] studied The optimization policy of the purchase price and the profit under vendor managed inventory (VMI) and established a supply chain mode of VMI For a salable product, which is based on deterministic demand, having initial stock and having stock-out cost. In his analysis, VMI is found to increase profits of the buyer in the short-term motivation. YU YUGANG [2006] discussed a VMI supply chain where a manufacturer and multiple retailers play a game with each other under partial co-operation in the inventory control with Tinglong Zhang [2007] discussed an integrated vendor-managed inventory model based on the assumption that the buyer s cycle times may be different and the vendor s production cycle is an integer multiple of each buyer s replenishment cycle Peter B. Southard [2008] compared the costs of inventory systems used in practice by rural farm cooperatives to possible technology- enabled systems. Performance was measured in inventory costs, delivery costs and stock outs. Yuliang Yao [2008] construct an analytical model to analyze the benefits realized for manufacturers and retailers under information sharing (IS), continuous replenishment programs (CRP) or vendor managed inventory (VMI) and compare the distribution of benefits between manufacturers and retailers. W.K. Wong [2009] proposed a model in the context of a two-echelon supply chain with a single supplier serving multiple retailers in vendor-managed inventory (VMI) partnership. The proposed model demonstrates that the supplier gains more profit with competing retailers than without as competition among the retailers lowers the prices and thus stimulates demand. G.P. Kiesm uller [2010] propose three different VMI strategies, aiming to reduce the order picking cost at the upstream location and the transportation costs resulting in reduced total supply chain costs. He compared VMI strategies are compared with a retailer managed inventory strategy for two different demand models suitable for slow moving products and found that if inventory holding costs are low, compared to handling and transportation costs, efficiencies at the warehouse are improved and total supply chain costs are reduced. Jun-Yeon Lee [2011] presented and analyzed a simple periodic-review stochastic inventory model to examine the benefits of VMI from economies of scale in production/delivery in a global environment characterized by exchange rate uncertainty and large fixed costs of delivery. Yugang Yu [2012] studies a Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) type supply chain where the manufacturing vendor 17
3 decides how to manage the system-wide inventories of its fast deteriorating raw material and its slowly deteriorating product and accordingly develop an integrated model to calculate the total inventory and deterioration cost for such a system. Model of ANOVA Technique:- One way ANOVA: - Under the one way ANOVA, we consider only one factor and then observe that the reason for said factor to be important is that several possible types of samples can occur within that factor. We then determine if there are differences within that factor. The technique involves the following steps:- (i) Obtain the mean of each sample i.e. obtain X 1, X 2, X 3, X 4 X k Where there are k samples. (ii) Work out the mean of the sample means as follows: X = x 1+ x 2 + x 3 +,x k No.of samples (k) (iii) (iv) Take the deviations of the sample mean from the sample means and calculate the square of such deviations which may be multiplied by the number of items in the corresponding sample, and then obtain their total. This is known as the sum of squares for variance between the sample (or SS between). Symbolically, this can be written: SS between = n1 X1 X 2 + n 2 X2 X n k Xk X 2 Divide the result of (iii) step by the degree of freedom between the samples to obtain variance or mean square (MS) between samples. Symbolically, this can be written: SS between MS between = N 1 where (N-1) represents degree of freedom (d.f.) between samples. (v) Obtain the deviations of the values of the sample items for all the samples from corresponding means of the samples and calculate the squares of such deviation and then obtain their total. This total is known as the sum of squares for variance and then obtains their total. This total is known as the sum of squares for variance within samples (or SS within), Symbolically this can be written as: SS within = X 1i X X 2i X X ki X k 2 i = 1, 2, 3 (vi) Divide the result of (v) step by the degree of freedom within samples to obtain the variance or mean square (MS) within samples. Symbolically this can be written as: MS within = SS within (n k) where (n-k) represents degree of freedom within samples. n= (total number of items in all the samples i.e. n 1 +n n k ) - 1 k=number of samples-1. (vii) For a check, the sum of squares of deviations for total variance can also be worked out by adding the squares of deviations when the deviations for the individual items in all the samples have been taken from the mean of the sample means. Symbolically, this can be written: (viii) SS for total variance = Xij X 2 18
4 i = 1, 2, 3 j = 1, 2, 3 This total should be equal to the total of the result of the (iii) and (v) steps explained above i.e. SS for total variance= SS between + SS within The degree of freedom for total variance will be equal to the number of items in all samples minus one i.e., (n-1). The degree of freedom for between and within must add up to degree of freedom for total variance i.e. n 1 = k 1 + n k (ix) This fact explains the additive property of the ANOVA technique. Finally, F-ratio may be worked out as under: MS between F-ratio = MS wit hin This ratio is used to judge whether the difference among several means is significant or is just a matter of sampling fluctuation. For this purpose we look into the table, giving the value of F for given degree of freedom at different levels of significance. If the worked out value of F, as stated above, is less than the table value of F, the difference is taken as insignificant i.e. due to chance and the null hypothesis of no difference between sample means stands. In case the calculated value of F happens to be either equal or more than its table value, the difference is considered as significant (which means the samples could not have come from the same universe) and accordingly the conclusion may be drawn. The higher the calculated value of F is above the table value, the more definite and sure one can be about his conclusions Result of ANOVA Analysis of Degree of Importance ANOVA: SINGLE FACTOR Table 4.5: Averages of Elements for Anova Sr. Groups Count Sum Averages Average of No. Averages 1 Job satisfaction Group Incentive Scheme Planning Location of Industry Commitment Top Management Commitment Team Work Effective Communication between Industry and customers Organization Policies Data Communication and analysis Monitoring and Reporting Employee Training
