Abstract

The Indonesian hospital equipment industry, PT MAK, has the potential to contribute to the health sector and national economy. One of the strategies to achieve this is ensuring availability of products that customers want. However, the lack of packaging cartons often results in physical damage to products and delays in delivery. To address this issue, a study was conducted on proper packaging carton inventory control using stochastic joint replenishment orders for multi-item products with probabilistic demand. The aim was to minimize total inventory cost. The results showed that joint ordering every 25 days and order lot size proportional to demand rate per period reduced inventory cost by 27.72% per year. Implementing this policy could improve company image and loyalty of consumers.
