Min/Max is a term describing the practice where inventory is replenished (Make or Buy) only when a minimum inventory level (Min) is reached. The reorder quantity determines the maximum inventory level (Max).
Notes
- Min is the reorder point. The Replenishment Cycle Time determines the true minimum inventory level, as inventory may continue to reduce between the date/time of reordering and date/time of receipt.
- Max is the order up-to level. This inventory may not be achieved due to inventory reduction during the time it takes to replenish the inventory (Replenishment Cycle Time).
