Abstract

The present work intends to optimize a hybrid delayed differentiation multiproduct economic production quantity-EPQ model with the scrap and end-products multi-shipment policy. Since the requirements of multi-goods have a standard part in common, our fabrication planning adopts a two-phase delayed differentiation strategy to make the standard components first and produce the finished multi-goods in the second phase. Implementing a partial subcontracting option (with the additional expense) for the standard parts helps us to expedite the required uptime in the first phase. A screening process identifies the faulty items that need to be removed to ensure the in-house production quality. A multi-shipment plan delivers the finished lot of end-products to clients in fixed time intervals. This study optimizes the overall operating expenses of this intra-supply chain system, including fabrication, delivery, and client stock holding, through our proposed modeling, formulation, and optimization procedure. In addition, this study gives a numerical demonstration of the obtained results’ applicability and usefulness to managerial decision-making.
