Abstract :
The importance of supply chain management (SCM) is generally recognized. However, two major causes of failure to establish successful supply chain (SC) are underestimated. One is that SC coordination is poorly made with current facilities. The other one is that high-level strategy alignment is seldom considered. An integrated framework of Supply Chain Management System (SCMS) is constructed to solve these two problems. Supported by the latest Internet technology, SCMS connects the information sharing and exchange among SC members with SC coordination and strategic management. This integrated system can: 1) provide better communications among SC members; 2) solve operational conflicts in SC and facilitate better cooperation; and 3) balance the strategies of SC members. This kind of management system can provide a satisfying and long-term solution to SCM
