Abstract

Production routing problem; is a supply chain problem where production, inventory, distribution and routing decisions are made together. The main aim of this problem is to make more cost-effective decisions, with decisions being made in an integrated manner. In this study, a decision support system that deals with the closed loop version of this problem is proposed. In the proposed decision support system, the DH algorithm has been applied for the production routing problem in closed loop supply chains. The DH algorithm decomposes the problem and aims to solve sub-problems interactively in a small time. In order to demonstrate the real-life applications of the system, the problem examined for a one-month planning period is applied for a company producing fats oil and it is found that the costs are lower than the current application.

Kapalı Döngü Üretim Rotalama Problemi için Bir Karar Destek Sistemi Önerisi

Abstract

Üretim rotalama problemi; üretim, envanter, dağıtım ve rotalama kararlarının bir arada verildiği bir tedarik zinciri problemidir. Bu problemin temel amacı, kararların entegre bir şekilde verilmesiyle birlikte maliyet açısından daha etkin kararlar almaktır. Bu çalışmada, bu problemin kapalı döngü versiyonunu ele alan bir karar destek sistemi önerilmiştir. Önerilen karar destek sisteminde kapalı döngü tedarik zincirlerindeki üretim rotalama problemi için DH algoritması uygulanmıştır. DH algoritması problemi parçalayarak alt problemleri etkileşimli bir şekilde hızla çözmeyi amaçlar. Sistemin gerçek hayat uygulamalarını gösterebilmek adına sıvı yağ üretimi yapan bir firma için bir aylık planlama dönemi için incelenen problem uygulanmış ve maliyetlerin mevcut duruma göre daha düşük olduğu görülmüştür.
