Determining Decoupling Points in a Supply Chain Networks using NSGA II Algorithm

چکیده مقاله

The decoupling point (DP) is gaining attention as a significant factor in the design and management of supply chains. The DP divides the part of the supply chain oriented towards customer orders from the part which is based on forecast planning and it can be stated that DP separates production process from lean production system to agile system so we can use the advantages of both production systems. Position of the decoupling point is a key factor that influences the design and management of a supply chain. In this study, we describe decoupling point’s determination as a multi objective decision making (MODM) problem, and our objectives are minimization of production cost and production delivery time and maximization of customer satisfaction. We use NSGA II for determining Pareto optimal solution, to extract some solution concept. Finally a numerical example is applied to validate applicability and feasibility of the proposed model and performance of the developed algorithm.
