Research On Complexity Of Evolution In The Integrated Supply Chain Management System

An intergrated supply chain is the complex structure of chain and network that consists of multi-object members and inter-dependent but contradictory organizations. If a knot party is locally searching for the optimal decision-making in terms of its own profit, profit conflict will be caused in the supply chain between different parties. Furthermore the whole system will evolve with more complicated activities. Since the concept of an integrated supply chain was initiated, the research and application of intergrated supply chains have made great progress. However fierce competitions in today's global markets have forced business enterprises to focus attention on their supply chains. This, together with continuing advances in communications and transportation technologies has motivated the continuous evolution of supply chain and of techniques to manage it. Interest in supply chain management in terms of its application and study has growth rapidly over past several years. Therefore the traditional approaches applied in the study of supply chain can no longer solve emerging problems encountered in the quick development of supply chain. Moreover, along with the rapid development of information technologies, a lot of supply chain reengineering methods are applied in industry, which are not investigated thoroughly yet. Besides it is of great important to improve performance of supply chain. Our work on supply chain structure and reengineering method is devoted to analyze and solve some of these problems.First, the paper focuses its attention on the stability of an integrated complex supply chain. The stability plays a primary role in the appearance of complication in the evolution of an integrated complex supply chain. Based on the investigation of dynamic parameter disturbance to the supply chain system, the paper proves that the supply system will be in an unstable state if some dynamic parameter disturbance goes beyond values in its domain. To be exact, when manufacturers make decision to invest more money than a reproduction really needs, the supply chain system is to cease functioning. What more important is that the whole supply system will be unstable if manufacturer make their decision in terms of its local optimalization. With further study, it is clear that the whole supply chain system is not necessarily in an optimal state though some parties in the chain obtain local hospitalization.Based on the investigation mentioned above, the paper also makes some study on the...
