This comprehensive Handbook provides an overview of
state-of-the-art research on quantitative models for inventory
management. Despite over half a century’s progress, inventory
management remains a challenge, as evidenced by the recent Covid-19
pandemic. With an expanse of world-renowned inventory scholars from
major international research universities, this Handbook explores
key areas including mathematical modelling, the interplay of
inventory decisions and other business decisions and the unique
challenges posed to multiple industries. Organized into three
distinct sections, chapters summarize the key developments in
quantitative inventory research over the past two decades. Mapping
out the fundamental theories and methodologies of inventory
management, the Handbook examines interfaces and explores
interdisciplinary topics in response to technological advancement
and globalization. It concludes with an analysis of
context-specific models, discussing tailored modelling and
analytical solutions of inventory systems in the fast-changing
industries of healthcare, spare parts logistics, retailing, and
online retailing. An important reference tool, this Handbook will
be essential to scholars and researchers invested in the fields of
business and operations and supply chain management. Its insightful
coverage of the practicalities of current research will be
indispensable for practitioners and regulators within these fields.
