Abstract :
On-demand logistics means to respond each time customer´s individual request one by one. On-demand logistics mechanism is established on the theory of on-demand logistics. It can optimize the logistics system through E TO E (End to End, the supply chain of upstream and downstream). Through the supply, production and sales of all the links, on-demand logistics mechanism can also militate the entire contents of the value chain. Thus the conflicts of logistics system may be eliminated and the logistics system can run more smoothly.
