Abstract. Company X is a small manufacturer in Thailand that produces hundreds of small joint
hinges or lockers for the home furniture around the world. The company usually orders mass different
raw material irregularly and causes different raw material inventory shortage for the multiple products
manufacturing process. The shortage of raw material for production always makes the process
discontinuous and reduces the productivity. To solve this problem, this paper intends to study a raw
material inventory control model for the most important multiple products production in the company
X. The ABC analysis technique for the inventory control system is first used to identify the most
important multiple products and then the economic order quantity (EOQ) of each product is developed
to find their inventory model equation individually. Using the regression technique, the raw material
inventory control model for the important multiple products is constructed. The result of regression
model analysis shows a goodness of fitting to the selected important multiple products and would
expected to avoid the raw material shortage problem and help to organize the complicate inventory
control system for company X in the future.
Key Words: productivity, ABC analysis, economic order quantity, multiple products,
