Review text

This paper examines the costs and benefits of expediting work-in-process with the objective of determining an optimal course of action. It defines relevant variables, formulates the problem and develops a solution heuristic.

Recommendations

• An inventory model with expedited stockouts
• Inventory Control with Generalized Expediting
• An order expediting policy for continuous review systems with manufacturing lead-time
• Determining optimal parameters for expediting policies under service level constraints
• Ordering policies for inventory systems with expediting
