Supply chain management mode based on coordination

As the advanced management technology of manufacturing systems, supply chain management has made great progress. At present, the centralized hierarchical control mode is adopted by many supply chain management systems. In such systems, entities are serially linked by orders. Each entity obtains the relevant order from its upper entity, and provides the input requirements information with the lower entity. Such a system has a slow response to environments since information is transmitted and fed back according to the strict multi-layer hierarchical structure. With the global market competition, it is much more necessary to put forward a new and efficient control method based on the existing supply chain management systems. In the paper, the supply chain management mode based on coordination is proposed and discussed in detail
