Real time supply chain management: Co-modeling of totally supply chain solution

Abstract

The process management benefits from the growth and the development of the communication technology. In fact, the information technology (IT) provides increasingly more solutions for the supply chain management (SCM). For that, the information systems (IS) that manage all the activities of the industries must respond with efficiency to all the internal and external requirements. In other side, the industry challenges increase with complexity and diversification of their process. The internal and external relationships with their environment provide a huge defy on the information system and the kind of the management system. This paper presents an approach for the totally real time supply chain management. We adopt a method based on co-modeling of distributed IS architecture and a complex supply chain management.
