| Résumé: | The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the feasibility of agent technology to solve the problem on the lack of coordination within the supply chain members. Without proper coordination, sales and inventory control will not be synchronized accordingly, Improving Supply Chain Management System (SCM) is very important for increasing competitive position and profitability. Agent technology is the preferable technology for enabling a flexible and dynamic coordination of spatially distributed entities in SCM. This technology changes the metaphor for human computer interactive from direct manipulation by the user to indirect management through agent processes. Agent can autonomously perform a lot of coordination and everyday task on behalf of their users. The advantages of web-based SCM using agent technology are automated inventory control and purchase order as demonstrated by the prototype. |
