چکیده

گارانتی یکی از مؤلفه‌های مهم در بازاریابی به شمار می‌آید. بدیهی است که پیشنهاد گارانتی با مدت‌زمان طولانی‌تر از طرف تولیدکننده تأثیر مستقیم برافزایش فروش خواهد گذاشت ولی از طرف دیگر، هزینه­های شرکت با افزایش طول دوره گارانتی افزایش می‌یابد. مسئله این تحقیق بیشینه‌سازی سود تولیدکننده است که از اجزای درآمدی و هزینه‌ای تشکیل می‌شود. برخلاف اغلب مقالات در حوزه گارانتی که فقط تصمیمات مربوط به محصولات تحت گارانتی را بررسی می‌کنند، در این تحقیق نقشی که محصولات از گارانتی خارج‌شده بر تصمیمات تولیدکننده می‌تواند داشته باشد نیز در نظر گرفته شده است. بدین منظور، مدل ارائه‌شده قابلیت محاسبه تعداد خرابی‌های محصولات تحت گارانتی و از گارانتی خارج‌شده (بر اساس نرخ خرابی محصولات) در بازه‌های زمانی برنامه‌ریزی تولید قطعات یدکی را دارد. همچنین تقاضای محصول مطابق با چرخه عمر آن، تابعی از زمان، قیمت و طول دوره گارانتی است. قیمت فروش و طول دوره گارانتی به ترتیب اثر مستقیم و عکس بر تقاضای محصول دارند. بدین ترتیب، تصمیم‌گیری توأمان در رابطه باقیمت محصول در بازه‌های زمانی مختلف و طول دوره گارانتی از اهمیت بالایی برخوردار است. برای حل مسئله از الگوریتم بهینه‌سازی ازدحام ذرات و بهینه‌سازی مُلهَم از اپتیک استفاده ‌شده است. به‌منظور بررسی نحوه تأثیر متغیرها بر سودآوری تولیدکننده، مدل پیشنهادی با استفاده از داده‌های شرکت صنام الکترونیک حل ‌شده و مورد تحلیل قرارگرفته است.

چکیده [English]

Warranty is an important element of new products’ marketing. It is obvious that longer warranty length has direct effect on product’s demand, but it can increase manufacturer's costs. The problem of this paper is maximizing the profit of the manufacturer, which consists of a set of revenue and cost elements. Although, most of researches in warranty area just examine the decisions for under-warranty products, in this research we proposed a model considering the role of both under- and out-of-warranty products on manufacturer’s profit. For this, we propose a model for calculating the number of under-warranty and out-of-warranty failures in each spare part production period. The demand itself is dependent upon the time, sales price, and length of warranty. Sales price and warranty length are, respectively, inversely and directly proportional to the market demand. Therefore, the simultaneous decision about sales price and length of warranty is of considerable significance in order to maximize the profit. We solve the problem with the Particle Swarm Optimization and Optics Inspired Optimization algorithms. Through a systematic analysis and comparison, some interesting and valuable managerial insights are derived which are applicable for companies such as SANAM Electronic Company for which we test our proposed model.
