Executive Takeaways

■ Intermediate demands practically exist in multiechelon system and should be considered. ■ The multiechelon lot-sizing problem, in which demands can exist in any echelon, is NP-hard.

■ We study variants of multiechelon lot-sizing problems and propose efficient algorithms. ■ Our algorithms outperform the best known methods proposed in the literature.
