Methodology, assumptions and limitations
ROP = average daily demand × lead time + safety stock

The reorder point is a trigger, not an order quantity. Compare inventory position with the ROP.

Assumptions

  • Constant average consumption during lead time.
  • No scheduled receipts or backorders in the timing estimate.
  • In operation, use inventory position: on hand + open orders − backorders.
