Research on the Inventory Control of Thermo-Technical Spare Parts in the Electric Power Group Based on E-Marketplaces

Abstract:

As thermo-technical spare parts are essential materials of power plants’ continuous and safe operation, how to guarantee their timely supply in subordinate power plants of the electric power group is a deserved research. Based on the analysis on the classification and electric power groups’ current situation on inventory management of thermo-technical spare parts, the paper presented a basic idea that managing the electric power group’s thermo-technical spare parts at different echelons and administrating them like in a supermarket in e-market way. The paper built a frame model of two-echelon inventory management. The function, structure, operation procedure, information flow and the problems of the e-marketplace’s inventory management are further analyzed. At last, the paper applied method of mathematical model to inventory control. The information and inventory of thermo-technical spare parts between suppliers and the e-marketplace, the e-marketplace and subordinate power plants are integrated and optimized effectively.
