Erik Caldwell overall transportation spend and these policies can be quickly modified to reduce cost with little risk or capital investment.21-May-08, Session 2 (2:30-3:45)

Allison C Bennett & Yi Zhuan ChinResearch Fest 2008In August 2007 the US government passed the 9/11 Act, requiring all US-bound containerized cargo to be scanned using radiation and non-intrusive imaging equipment at foreign seaports prior to vessel loading by July 2012. This project creates a quantitative framework to assist importers in analyzing the financial costs and delay concerns associated with 100% container scanning.21-May-08, Session 1 (1:15-2:15)

Khalid UsmanResearch Fest 2008This project utilizes data mining techniques to determine the drivers of stock-out performance. Best performing and worst performing clusters of stores were identified using data clustering techniques. Furthermore, Logistic regression and multiple ordinary-least-squares regression were used to gain further insights and quantify the drivers of stock-outs.22-May-08, Session 1 (8:30-9:30)

Yanika Daniels & Timothy Kenny Research Fest 2008In order to incorporate risk management into the Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) process, companies must segment their products and customers based on business importance, demand forecast, and order lead time. After completing these segmentation steps, companies can then apply appropriate risk management tactics to mitigate uncertainty in demand and supply.21-May-08, Session 2 (2:30-3:45)

Scott Hsiang-Jen Cheng a supply chain has been designed and modeled that reduces hospital supply chain costs. The supply chain is centered on patient-specific kits delivered from an offsite warehouse to hospital bedsides. Effective implementation requires that each individual hospital segment their products to determine which items are appropriate for the supply chain.21-May-08, Session 3 (4:00-5:00)

Rintiya ArkaresvimunResearch Fest 2008This project developed an inventory model to find the optimal inventory distribution in a retail three-echelon network that enables high target service level at the stores. Using a multi-echelon approach, the optimal network inventory cost can be achieved by low inventory and service level at the intermediate echelon. The study shows the interrelations between echelons that should be considered when developing each echelon s inventory policy.22-May-08, Session 3 (11:00-12:30)

Erik Caldwell and Bryan FisherResearch Fest 2008This project developed a model to quantify the impact of business policy decisions, such as tender lead time, on truckload transportation costs. This model demonstrated that business policies have a substantial impact on companies overall transportation spend and these policies can be quickly modified to reduce cost with little risk or capital investment. 21-May-08, session 2 (2:30-3:45p)
