ABSTRACT
System dynamic is an approach to understanding the behavior of complex
systems over time. Current research on system dynamics modeling in supply chain
management focuses on inventory decision and policy development, time
compression, demand amplification, supply chain design and integration, and
international supply chain management. Less attention has been devoted on the
inventory level improvement with fuzzy demand controller in dynamic simulation
model. This study is aimed to consider customer demand fluctuation to improve the
finished goods inventory level of Electronic Company by using dynamic simulation
model. Dynamic and changes in demand and corresponding excess during time
through the product life is considered as serious problems in supply chain. Data
collection and analysis have been considered to find the current problems of the
company. Dynamic model has been constructed by ITHINK software to represent the
inventory level of company. The stock and flow diagrams are become visible to
represent the structure of a system with more detailed information. Three different
variables have been applied in Fuzzy controller to give the better level of inventory
by MATLAB SIMULINK. Generated results have been compared by current
company inventory level in ITHINK software and the best alternative was selected to
suggest the company management.

ABSTRAK
Sistem Dinamik merupakan pendekatan untuk memahami perlakuan bagi
sistem yang kompleks dalam satu jangka masa. Kajian-kajian semasa bagi sistem
dinamik dalam pengurusan rantaian bekalan adalah menjurus kepada membuat
keputusan dalam inventori dan pembangunan polisi, pemampatan masa,
pengembangan permintaan, rekabentuk dan integrasi rantaian pembekal, dan
pengantarabangsaan pengurusan rantaian pembekal. Penumpuan kajian kepada
peningkatan tahap inventori melalui kawalan permintaan “fuzzy” dalam simulasi
model dinamik adalah sangat terhad. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan
prestasi penentuan tahap invetori barangan siap bagi sebuah syarikat elektronik
dengan pertimbangan permintaan pelanggannya yang tidak menentu, menggunakan
simulasi model dinamik. Dinamika serta perubahan dalam permintaan dan lebihan
semasa dalam jangkahayat produk merupakan satu masalah yang serius dalam
rantaian bekalan. Dapatan serta analisis data berkaitan dengan rantaian bekalan
telah dilakukan untuk menentukan masalah semasa yang dihadapi oleh syarikat ini.
Model dinamik telah dibina menggunakan perisian iThink bagi menwakili tahap
inventori syarikat. Rajah “stock” dan “flow” mewakili sturktur sistem yang dibina
digambarkan dengan jelas dengan perincian informasi yang lebih ketara. Tiga
pemboleh ubah yang berbeza telah digunakan dalan kawalan “fuzzy” untuk
menghasilkan penetapan tahap inventori yang lebih baik, dengan bantuan perisian
MATLAB SIMULINK. Dengan mengunakan perisian iThink, keputusan yang
terjana ini dibandingkan dengan tahap inventori semasa syarikat. Alternatif yang
terbaik telah dipilih dan dicadangkan kepada pihak pengurusan syarikat.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
In recent years, supply chain has received increasing attention from both
researchers and practitioners. A supply chain is a network of suppliers,
manufacturing sites, distribution centres, retailers through which raw materials are
acquired, transformed, and delivered to customers. Supply chain management is to
respond to the rapid change and severe competition environment in the marketplaces,
enhance the efficiency of enterprises, reduce the cost of inventories and improve
customers’ satisfaction, which exerts great influence on business. The supply chain
starts with raw-material supplier and ends at the consumers. The coordination of
cross-enterprise is an important and difficult task in supply chain management. One
of the critical issues in supply chain management is how to characterize such a
complex dynamic behaviour in supply chain network and assure product availability
throughout the chain. It makes dynamics modelling an ideal tool to model supply
chain networks.Dynamic modelling is a computer-aided approach for analysing and
solving complex problems with a focus on policy analysis and design which has its
origins in control engineering and management; the approach uses a perspective
based on information feedback and delays to understand the dynamic behaviour of
complex physical, biological, and social systems.

This chapter presents an introduction of this research work reported in this
study. It covers many important aspects. First, it describes the background of the
problem, followed by the problem statements and objectives of the research. Next, it
describes the scope of the research work, and finally it explains the significance of
the research.
1.2 Background of the Study
Before investigating the problems in modelling of supply chain, it is
important to have an overview of the general related aspects. This section begins
with the overview of supply chain. Next, system modelling is described.
Furthermore, it continues through defining supply chain modelling. Finally, it would
be focused on using dynamic modelling in supply chain.
A supply chain consists of all stages including the manufacturer and
suppliers, transporters, warehouses, retailers, and customers to satisfy a customer
demand. Modelling refers to the process of generating a model of some real world
entity, processor system. Traditionally, the formal modelling of systems to predict
their behaviour has been done via a mathematical model which attempts to find
analytical solutions enabling the prediction from a set of parameters and initial
conditions. For many systems, however, simple closed form analytic solutions are
not possible. This is the point at which computer simulation models come into play.
The modelling and analysis of supply chain has been an active area of research for
many years. Supply chains are multifaceted structures focusing on the integration of
all the factors involved in the overall process of production and distribution of end
products to the customers. Growing interest in supply chain systems has highlighted
the need to adopt appropriate approaches that can ensure the efficient management of
their complexity, enormity and broadness of scope(Shee, Tang et al. 2000). The
purpose of supply chain management is to optimize the performance of supply
3
chains, therefore development of modelling frameworks can be utilized to analyse
and comprehend the dynamic behaviour of supply chains.
Industrial dynamics, described as the application of feedback concepts to
social systems, is evolving toward a theory of structure in systems as well as being
an approach to corporate policy design. Dynamic modelling is appropriate for supply
chain modelling because supply chains are dynamic. It means that they display
distinctive behaviour that is known to vary through time. They are interactive
because system components interact with one another, and their interaction produces
the distinctive behaviour of the system. In this Study, finished goods target level in
inventory is investigated because, inventory is an important factor which should be
considered as a main aspect that influence on delivery lead time(Özbayrak,
Papadopoulou et al. 2007).
1.3 Statement of the Problem
Strategic supply chain management deals with a wide range of issues and
includes several types of decision-making problems that affect the long-term
development and operations of a firm, namely the determination of number,
throughputs of machines and production capacity, warehouses capacity and flow of
material through the logistics network, inventory management policies, distribution
strategies, supply chain integration and customer delivery lead time. The
methodological approach which is dynamic modelling could be used for capturing
most of the named supply chain management problems. Supply chains are dynamic
because they show different behaviour during the time. So, it makes dynamics
modelling as a proper approach to model supply chain networks.

Demand fluctuations leads to have high inventory level in warehouse which
causes high cost. However, less attention has been devoted on the inventory level
optimization with Fuzzy demand controller in dynamic simulation model. A
comprehensive dynamic model with Fuzzy demand is applied to fulfill the mentioned
gap.This research develops a dynamic model of an electronic company through
Supply Chainto optimize level of finished goods inventory through the developed
system modelling. Inventory is an important factor which should be considered as a
main aspect that influence on delivery lead time. The research questions of this
project are as follow:
1. How does a dynamic model of supply chain can be represented for an
electronic company?
2. How to optimize inventory level of finished goods through the dynamic
model of the system?
1.4 Objectives of the Study
Based on the problem statements mentioned above, this research
encompasses a set of objectives that is associated with the milestones of the research
process. The research objectives are mentioned below:
1. To develop a dynamic model of an electronic company through Supply Chain
that illustrates system behavior of finished goods inventory related to demand
2. To optimize the inventory level of finished goods inventory through the
developed system modeling with the assisting of present’s optimization
software.

1.5 Scope of the Study
Scope of the study includes method that addresses dynamic modelling of
supply chain for an electronic company that is located in Johor Baharu, and its
production is lamp. In order to develop a dynamic model through the supply chain
system, IThink software is used to construct the dynamic model. Also, MATLAB
SIMULINK software through Fuzzy Controller for optimization is applied. Supplier
order sizes, order threshold, raw material on order, number of lines, number of
production, actual customer order are performance parameters are collected from the
electronic company.
The available data from the company is used to optimize inventory level of
finished goods in three scenarios (the first four months, the second four months, and
the third four months).The study is just a proposed model using the available data
from company (not a real implementation). After simulating the model, this research
optimizesthe level of finished goods inventory by using MATLAB SIMULINK
through the Fuzzy controller.
1.6 Significance of the study
Supply chains are dynamic because they display distinctive behaviour that is
known to vary through time. They are interactive because system components
interact with one another, and their interaction produces the distinctive behaviour of
the system. In supply chains, dynamics are produced by different types of interaction,
for instance buyer-supplier interaction, interaction between the user and the provider
of information services (Shee, Tang et al. 2000), etc. They are complex because
many objects interact in the system of interest, and their individual dynamics need
careful consideration and analysis. The operations performed within a supply chain
are a function of a great number of key variables which often seem to have strong
6
interrelationships. The ability of understanding the network as a whole, analysing the
interactions between the various components of the integrated system and eventually
supplying feedback without decomposing it makes dynamics modelling an ideal tool
to model supply chain networks (Özbayrak, Papadopoulou et al. 2007).
This research developed and simulated a dynamic model of supply chain for
an electronic company to optimize inventory level of finished goods. Therefore, the
result of this research is useful to determine a proper target level of finished goods.
This model is not only used for an electronic company, but also used for other
companies as well.
1.7 Conclusion
In summary, supply chains are dynamic because they show different behavior
during the times. So, it makes dynamics modeling a proper approach to model supply
chain networks. This research simulates a dynamic model of supply chain for an
electronic company to optimize the inventory level of finished goods. Inventory is an
important factor which should be considered as a main aspect that influence on cost
and time.
