Abstract :
With the globalization of world economy and intensification of market competition, the number of customers aware of time is increasing and these customers have paid much more attention to products´ supply chain response time than ever before. This market environment has forced enterprises to improve supply chain technology in order to respond to customers´ orders more promptly. Based on the comparison of similarities between supply chain collaboration management and multi-Agent system, this paper proposes that supply chain coordination management could be achieved through multi-Agent system. Through constructing a multi-Agent based supply chain collaboration model, this paper studies orders´ delivery time issue from overall production process and logistics process on the supply chain at the enterprise level, provides suggestions for enterprises to make attractive delivery time/price combination and make on time delivery.
