            Abstract : 
Enormous pressures have been imposed on SCM to reduce cost and improve operation efficiency, and importantly to support information visibility throughout an integrated interoperable organization network. Advanced P2P MANET technologies promise to enable the capabilities necessary to meet these challenges and spur innovation in SCM. In this paper, we propose an interoperable virtual collaborative network infrastructure based on multidimensional structured P2P MANET to improve supply chain visibility. At last, we list issues that worth investigation in further research.
