      Hello,
      I would like to know if you give hands on training on the inventory mgt system software and the warehouse management systems.
      I will be expecting your response.
      Thank you,

      Hi Kehinde, if you become a Premium member of the Operations & Supply Chain University UA-cam channel then you will receive 1 hour per week of hands on virtual office hours by Zoom. During those sessions we can discuss some inventory management systems and processes, but I do not have access to many of the "software" systems that are on the market & available for supply chain & operations professionals.

    for expected time between orders, why we did not take 365, orders from weekend gets piled up

    • @OperationsAndSupplyChain
      @OperationsAndSupplyChain  3 місяці тому

      Hi Kevin, thanks for the question. We only take the working days into consideration (not all 365 days), because there will be no bottleneck of orders from the weekend, if they do not work on the weekends. You only use the working days per year for the calculation.

    How can I understand how to manually calculate holding costs? I’d like some more info on this if possible!
    Great video! Thank you! 🙏🏼

    • @OperationsAndSupplyChain
      @OperationsAndSupplyChain  6 місяців тому

      Hi Chris, in the university course I teach I always provide the holding cost (or communicate what percentage it is of the item's purchase price). If you were using this in a non-university setting, you would have to manually calculate holding cost. There are multiple ways to calculate the holding cost, and each organization may do it differently. In general, holding cost is the sum of all carrying costs (storage costs, employee salaries, service costs, insurance, taxes, obsolete inventory, and shrinkage). After you have all of the holding costs (as determined by your organization), then you divide that by the total value of annual inventory. Multiply it by 100% and that is your holding cost percentage. I hope that helps!

    Why we use number 2 in dividends and multiply?

    • @OperationsAndSupplyChain
      @OperationsAndSupplyChain  14 днів тому +1

      Hi Emad, thanks for the question. We use the number 2 in the EOQ formula because it helps us to calculate the "average" inventory (Q/2). If we order 100 pcs at a time (Q=100) and let the inventory drop to zero (0) then the average on hand inventory is 100/2 = 50 pcs. Thanks for watching our videos!

  • @carolraydan9849

    in the total annual cost in part d last question of the video, total annual cost don't u have tp also incorporate the cost of purchasing the items (65*131 quantity)?

    • @OperationsAndSupplyChain
      @OperationsAndSupplyChain  4 місяці тому +1

      Good question. The last example provides the purchase cost per unit because the holding cost (H) is calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. There are three main inventory models for independent demand; EOQ, EPQ/POQ, and the Quantity Discount Model. The Quantity Discount Model takes the purchase price into consideration, so then you would revise your order quantity and buy Q, not the EOQ (Q*). Please see that video for an explanation of how to incorporate the item unit cost into the purchase quantity decision.

    Hello, if i am told the business has a daily demand of 35 and that they operate or work for 252 days out of the year wha is the total demand for the year?

    • @OperationsAndSupplyChain
      @OperationsAndSupplyChain  8 місяців тому

      Hi Na, I'm not sure if your trying to throw me a curve ball question here, but the annual demand in your scenario would be daily demand of 35 x 252 working days = 8,820 annual demand?
