The reorder point (ROP), also reorder level (ROL) or "optimal re-order level", [1] is the level of inventory which triggers an action to replenish that particular inventory. It is a minimum amount of an item which a firm holds in stock, such that, when stock falls to this amount, the item must be reordered.
Prior to MRP, and before computers dominated industry, reorder point (ROP)/reorder-quantity (ROQ) type methods like EOQ (economic order quantity) had been used in manufacturing and inventory management. [1] MRP was computerized by the aero engine makers Rolls-Royce and General Electric in the early 1950s but not commercialized by them.
Total cost function and optimal reorder point. The total cost is given by the sum of setup costs, purchase order cost, backorders cost and inventory carrying cost:
If there are backorders, the reorder point is: =; with m being the largest integer and μ the lead time demand. Additionally, the economic order interval [ 8 ] can be determined from the EOQ and the economic production quantity model (which determines the optimal production quantity) can be determined in a similar fashion.
Reorder level: Reorder level refers to the point when a company place an order to re-fill the stocks. Reorder point depends on the inventory policy of a company. Some companies place orders when the inventory level is lower than a certain quantity. Some companies place orders periodically.

Material theory (or more formally the mathematical theory of inventory and production) is the sub-specialty within operations research and operations management that is concerned with the design of production/inventory systems to minimize costs: it studies the decisions faced by firms and the military in connection with manufacturing, warehousing, supply chains, spare part allocation and so on ...
