- Summary:
- Kaffee Kostuum is a short case that introduces inventory and supply chain management and its financial impact. The case provides a simple context for examining basic inventory performance measures to improve operational-as well as financial-performance. The case has three parts: (1) analyzing reordering decisions, leading to the economic order quantity (EOQ) model and corresponding cycle stock levels; (2) investigating the effect of demand uncertainty, leading to the concept of safety stock; (3) and analyzing the impact of various supply-chain redesign initiatives, such as product rationalization, reshoring, and physical centralization, to reduce inventories.
