Integrated Production-Distribution Model for Multi-National Companies Under Varying Exchange Rates
This paper presents an integrated production and distribution model (IPDM) designed specifically for multi-national companies (MNCs) operating under fluctuating exchange rates. It explores the synchronization of production, inventory, and distribution schedules while considering factors such as capacity management, inventory allocation, and vehicle routing. By incorporating exchange rate variables, the model aims to enhance efficiency and reduce costs, providing valuable insights into the complexities of international trade and logistics in a dynamic economic environment.

An Integrated production-distribution model for a multi-national company operating under varying exchange rates Zubair M. Mohamed Department of Management & Information Systems, Western Kentucky University, USA IJPE 58(1999) 81-92
Introduction-MNC environment • Multi-national company(MNC)’s condition • The number of countries of operation • The proportion of overall revenues • The growth of international trade • Liberalizing import restrictions • Diffusion of knowledge and technology • Transnational corporations : 24,000 in the world’s 14 richest countries(by UN Conference)
Introduction • Relevant factors to research • Cost of production(manufacturing) • Distribution(logistics), labor costs(capacity) • Expertise in production and distribution(efficiency) • Currency exchange regulation & stability of foreign exchange(exchange rate)
Integrated Production/Distribution model(PDM) efficiency Exchange rate Manufacturing cost Distribution cost Forecast coefficient for the exchange rate Base exchange rate
Impression for this paper • Facility capacity는 efficiency보다 cost가 주 factor • Exchange rate를 모델에 고려. • 수식을 너무 간소화했다.(setup variable) • 가정 사항의 타당성 • Capacity change. • Exchange rate를 고려할 때와 고려하지 않을 때의 비교.

Introduction • Inventory/Routing problem • Production details-capacity allocation, lot size, setup • Distribution plan-vehicle routing • “Coordination of production and distribution”-by Chandra & Fisher(EJOR, 1994) • Multi-period horizon,multi-product, lot sizing & delivery routing problems

The Decomposition Procedure • 앞의 model, constraints 2, 8 relaxation • Constraint 2 : to separate the lot-sizing and vehicle routing problems • Constraint 8 : to separate the integer and continuous Lagrangian multipliers jt, iltv Lagrangian dual problem : max, (PROD + INV + DIS + ROU) subject to iltv >= 0
The Decomposition Procedure • 1. Production(PROD) • 2. Inventory(INV)
The Decomposition Procedure • 3. Distribution(DIS)
The Decomposition Procedure • 4. Routing(ROU)
Solution Algorithms • Upper bounds(for Lagrangian dual problem) • Optimal value Pjt 를 이용해서, delivery schedule 결정 • 모든 customer k에 대해서, demand를 fully loaded vehicles과 residual demand로 나눈다. • One customer 이상을 serve 해야 하는 vehicles을 위한 route결정(by nearest neighbor heuristics) • At insertion step, a capacity check is executed. The best results were summed up to compute the desired upper bound
Solution Algorithms • Primal feasible solution • 1. a reasonable delivery plan • 2. Production volume Pjt V’ v V’ v v 0 v V’ v Possible routes associated to a feasible solution of DIS
