Inventory management system, Min Max inventory model, demand analysisAbstract
The present investigation is carried out in the Cienfuegos factory of Pasta and its objective is the design of an Inventory Management System that responds appropriately to the needs and requirements of the clients. The calculated service levels showed that customers are not served on time, that there is an average delay of three days in delivery, and the average response time of 10 days. It is possible to design and test a Min Max inventory system, which responds adequately to the characteristics of the demand. It is linked both to the finished product and to the raw material and it is possible to reduce the delivery cycle to only the transportation time while achieving a reduction in inventory costs.
